Non-notable mini-satellite. No coverage found for this object, only press-releases. There is a fashion company with the same name that has many hits. No coverage in RS.

Delete This is borderline hoax territory. Somehow a number of Indian papers have picked up on this spurious story of a - and I quote the article - 'Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) 1U cubesat'. That's a kit to you and me, a sort of RS Components small-sat. I can see no evidence it was scheduled to launch by ISRO or, indeed, launched. Is a 1U cubesat notable? Inherently, no, there are thousands of the little beasts and they are a popular platform for educational applications. Is this cubesat differentiated in any way? No. The article's claim that the satellite is intended to "prove the accessibility of space to the masses" is clearly bunkum. Delete with fire. Best
