"According to Pranos, the reactor took around eight months to build. The company plans to operate Pragya for nearly two decades, targeting between 10 and 12 experimental shots a day, or roughly 3,000 shots annually.... The high-frequency experiments are expected to generate a large volume of data on plasma behaviour, tokamak design and control systems."
"Pranos plans to use the facility to test plasma control technologies, high-temperature superconducting magnets, diagnostics and other critical systems that could eventually be integrated into larger fusion machines."
"Pranos aims to have its high-temperature superconducting magnet technology operational by 2027. By 2030, it hopes to build a net-gain fusion reactor called PraniQ, a far more ambitious machine designed to demonstrate a major milestone in fusion development."

Bengaluru-based Pranos unveils India's 1st private compact nuclear fusion reactor
Pranos Fusion has unveiled Pragya, which it describes as India's first privately developed compact tokamak. The machine will test fusion technologies while helping build domestic capability in plasma science.
