According to updated NOTAM launch date is now march 16th. Source: https://old.reddit.com/r/ISRO/comments/fea1zb/gslv_f10_gisat1_second_launch_attempt_notam_is/
NOTAM for potential Mar 16 launch has been withdrawn so the technical issue causing delay from Mar 5 presumably needs extended fix time
Coronavirus has impacted work on the rocket at SHAR. Work on the rocket was stopped following orders received from ISRO headquaters. GSLV F10 was taken to the VAB last week and the GISAT-1 satellite was detached and moved to Satellite Preparation Building#2 on Thursday.
