The correct answer is (a) GSLV-III.
GSLV-III is a three-stage heavy-lift launch vehicle developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It is the most powerful launch vehicle in India’s fleet and is capable of placing satellites weighing up to 4,000 kg into geostationary transfer orbit.
GSLV-III was first launched on December 14, 2014, from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. The launch was a success and the vehicle placed the GSAT-14 satellite into geostationary transfer orbit.
GSLV-III is a significant development for ISRO and will enable the country to launch heavier satellites into orbit. It is also a step towards India’s goal of becoming a major player in the global space industry.
