Initially considered partially successful, with the satellite reaching a lower than planned orbit, but managing to raise itself into the correct transfer orbit, however because this manoeuvre consumed fuel, the satellite was unable to reach its final orbit or become operational, and the launch was ultimately considered a failure.

Eventually the 2160 kg payload reached the designated geostationary transfer orbit. There were reports that the mission life of the satellite had decreased by five years as the thrusters had to burn this much fuel to restore the satellite to its correct orbit. However, the ISRO later refuted this claim dismissing it as false.
