The ISRO reported that the LVM3 M4 launch vehicle's cryogenic upper stage made an unplanned re-entry into Earth's atmosphere at approximately 2:42pm. To note, the upper stage transported the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft. As anticipated, the rocket body plummeted into the North Pacific Ocean. The successful launch of India's third lunar mission, Chandrayaan-3, took place at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota on July 14.
