Very unlikely, due to a bunch of factors.

1. Getting the money from the government to do so is going to be very hard.

2. Anything the ISRO says they'll do usually will be delayed by years (owing to petty bureaucracy) and finally scraped off.

I guess this will give them a reason to build a space shuttle, and a place for it to go?
