I have come across ICESat (Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite) data which provides information regarding altitudes, that are under the operation of NASA's Earth Observing System. Likewise, is there any such satellite covering India? If so, please provide the details.
Thank you very much in advance.

Alternatively, you can register as a Copernicus user and access the data acquired by the European Space Agency directly from their database: https://spacedata.copernicus.eu/web/cscda/data-access/access-to-esa-eo-data
ICESat-2 is the recently launched (September 2018) satellite covering the globe ( https://nsidc.org/data/icesat-2/data-sets ). In addition, ASTER provides stereo-pairs which can be used to generate DEM. If one time elevation data is needed, then SRTM, ASTER GDEM, and ALOS DEM are widely used global elevation data-sets.
