I donn't understand pslv,gslv mission without satellites

the rocket counts as a mission and the payload is another mission. If you add it all together, its 10

can't take too much risk with GSLV, GSLV is in it's nascent stages, ISRO still has to master the cryogenic engine technology, last time we tried two GSLV missions in one year - 2010, the whole program got a setback as the two launches were a failure. We have to learn to walk before we can run.
