The mission was carried out by ISRO's Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC). "From ISTRAC, Bengaluru, the second Earth-bound movement (EBN#2) is successfully carried out.

The new orbit obtained is 282 km by 40225 km, according to a statement from ISRO on X (formerly Twitter).

On September 3, the first earthbound movement was executed successfully. Before entering the transfer orbit towards the Lagrange point L1, the spacecraft will perform two more earth-bound orbital movements. After roughly 127 days, Aditya-L1 is anticipated to reach the planned orbit at the L1 point.On September 2, the Aditya-L1 spacecraft was successfully launched by ISRO's Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C57) from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Sriharikota.
