Updated list.
1. Launch status
2. Postponement of SPADEX and TDS-01.
3. New timeline for Chandrayaan-5.
Following launch vehicles have been in preparation work. I won't assign flight numbers to missions as that has been changing quickly.
PSLV - C61, C62, C63, N2 (N-flight d-notes privately built PSLV)
GSLV - F14, F16
SSLV - S1, S2
Orbital launches undertook in 2024
