| Landing site | Statio Shiv Shakti, 69.37°S — first soft landing near lunar south pole | Near Mons Mouton, lunar south pole | Mare Frigoris (center; hard landing) |
| Payload | Pragyan rover 27 kg + lander Vikram 1,749 kg (2023-08-23) | Up to 3 kg lunar sample return (2026-02-06) | Tenacious micro-rover (5 kg, ispace EU) + 5 commercial payloads (2025-06-05) |

| Outcome | First soft landing near the lunar south pole and first lunar landing by ISRO. Pragyan rover traversed ~100 m over 10 lunar days, confirmed sulfur, aluminium, calcium, iron, chromium, titanium, manganese, silicon, oxygen at the landing site. Lander 'hopped' to a secondary location demonstrating reusable propulsion. | India's first lunar sample-return mission. Five modules launched on two LVM3 vehicles; requires both Earth-orbit and lunar-orbit docking — first-time capabilities for ISRO. Architecture sanctioned by Government of India September 2024. | Laser Range Finder anomaly during descent caused hard landing; data lost ~90 seconds before scheduled touchdown at 19:17 UTC. NASA's LRO imaged impact dark-smudge on 2025-06-11. ispace's 2025-06-24 technical analysis ruled out propulsion/power; isolated cause to LRF. |
