Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "RISAT-1" in English language version.
In GSAT-6A, there could be a power issue. A spark could have led to a short circuit. In the last three satellites — GSAT-6, RISAT and GSAT-6A — we have shifted to a higher-powered satellite bus. We saw there were similar problems in RISAT after it completed its life.
Anomalies have been observed towards the end of 5 years mission life and satellite is no more operational.
