Space tourism is gradually emerging in India, driven by private aerospace ventures and increasing high-net-worth consumer interest. By 2040, the Indian space tourism market is projected to reach $2 billion, as players like Skyroot Aerospace, Agnikul Cosmos, and Indian Space Research startups explore suborbital and orbital flight experiences. Ticket prices are expected to range from $100K–$250K per seat for short-duration flights, targeting affluent domestic travelers and international visitors seeking unique experiences.

Regulatory frameworks, safety certifications, and infrastructure development remain critical challenges. Early market assessments suggest that initial adoption may reach 5,000–7,000 passengers annually by 2030, growing to 20,000–25,000 passengers per year by 2040. Investments in launch facilities, training centers, and support services are projected to exceed $500 million by 2035, with partnerships between private companies and government bodies like ISRO facilitating safer and more scalable operations. Consumer willingness to pay is strongly correlated with perceived safety and prestige, making marketing, pre-flight experiences, and loyalty programs key revenue drivers.
