As a part of its Launch Services Agreement signed with NewSpace India Limited (NSIL), Dhruva Space will be utilising the PSLV Orbital Experimental Module (POEM) which allows in-orbit scientific experiments using the spent PS4 stage as an orbital platform.
Speaking ahead of the PSLV C53 mission, Sanjay Nekkanti, CEO, Dhruva Space Private Limited, shares, “The PSLV C53 mission is a key milestone in the journey of Dhruva Space. The mission will demonstrate the in-house developed CubeSat Deployers ahead of the launch of our Satellite Missions, Thybolt-1 & Thybolt-2, onboard the PSLV C54 Mission. This will also enable Dhruva Space to support our international clients with CubeSat Deployers, Integration and Launch Services”.

PSLV-C53 carries three satellites. These include DS-EO, a 365kg satellite and NeuSAR a 155kg satellite -- both belonging to Singapore. The third satellite is a 2.8kg Scoob-1 of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore.
DS-EO carries an electro-optic, multi-spectral payload that will provide full-colour images for land classification, and serve in humanitarian assistance and disaster relief needs.
NeuSAR is Singapore's first small commercial satellite carrying a SAR payload, which is capable of providing images in day and night and under all weather conditions.
The SCOOB-I satellite is the first satellite in the Student Satellite Series (S3-I), a hands-on student training programme from the Satellite Research Centre (SaRC) at Singapore's NTU School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
The PSLV Orbital Experimental Module (POEM) activity is of performing in-orbit scientific experiments using the spent PS4 stage as an orbital platform.
POEM carries six payloads including two from Indian Space Start-ups – the M/s Digantara and M/s Dhruva Space, enabled though IN-SPACe and NSIL.

PS4 ignition and burnout. Spacecrafts' separations!
Congratulations 🎊 👏 and the speeches 💬 begin.
PS4 will continue to operate on orbit as PSLV Orbital Experimental Module (POEM).
Mission organized and executed in 3-4 months.
This launch is 7 days after Ariane 5 launch of
GSAT-24.
I heard no mention of future schedule/next launch.
Speeches end; webcast ends.
Congratulations to the entire launch campaign team!
Next orbital launch at 22:00 UTC: Atlas V from Cape Canaveral--2nd orbital launch today UTC.

They were tight-lipped about payloads on POEM. Apart from Dhruva Aerospace and Digantara payloads, it also has Indian flag with pledge on the occasion of 75th Indian independence (August 15)[1]. There seems to be a camera pointed at the flag and other payloads on POEM. Probably they'll release a video of flag with the pledge on Independence Day.

https://www.eenadu.net/telugu-news/related-stories/general/2505/122117906On the occasion of 'Azadi Amrit Mahotsav', this time the rocket will carry the pledge of our country and the national flag.

Yes, from mission page:
https://www.isro.gov.in/launcher/pslv-c53-ds-eo-missionIt would inject DS-EO satellite into an orbit with semi-major axis of 6948.137 + 20 km, at an altitude of 570 km measured from the equator, with a low inclination of 10 deg. + 0.20. PSLV-C53 carries three satellites. DS-EO, a 365 kg and NeuSAR, a 155 kg satellite both belonging to Singapore. Third satellite is a 2.8 kg Scoob-1 of Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/home/science/a-milestone-towards-revolutionising-space-exploration-digantara-says-after-launching-space-weather-system/articleshow/92578681.cms [June 30]
In a post-launch statement, Digantara said: “We’ve launched the world’s first commercial space-based space weather system, ROBI (ROBust Integrating proton fluence metre).”
“With the launch of the world’s smallest digital space weather sensor for monitoring space weather we’ve taken a giant leap towards building our space infrastructure for providing a one-stop comprehensive SSA solution. This will enable us to include proprietary near real-time space weather information to our ground-breaking platform, Space - Mission Assurance Platform (Space - MAP),” the firm said.
“Digantara’s patented, digital space weather sensor’s extremely small footprint (12mm X 7mm X 7mm) with power consumption of <20mW and the simplicity of integration, makes it ideal to place in any satellite that goes to space, irrespective of size, shape or application. This will enable Digantara to increase the amount of empirical space weather data that will be available in quasi-real time,” it added.

https://spacenews.com/communications-established-with-payload-on-stabilized-pslv-upper-stage/TAMPA, Fla. — Indian startup Digantara said July 6 its space weather monitoring payload ROBI is operational onboard a spent upper stage of India’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle.
The company said the experimental payload has successfully sent data from PSLV’s Orbital Experimental Platform (POEM) ...
Shreyas Mirji, Digantara’s head of business and strategy, said the startup has established communications with ROBI, “and have started receiving the first batch of datasets and assessments are currently underway.”

Interesting tidbit now coming out on the PSLV C53 mission which launched on June 30, 2022:
https://www.news9live.com/india/har-ghar-tiranga-happened-in-antriksh-isro-did-hoist-the-indian-flag-in-space-194691The Indian flag and constitution were for the first time displayed in space, photographed via a camera in a 'space selfie'
This was supposed to have happened as part of the Gaganyaan first manned spaceflight mission, but that mission has unfortunately suffered delays due to COVID. So PSLV C53 instead served as the means for this, using the final upper stage of the rocket, equipped with solar cells and transmitter.
This particular mission was called
PSLV
Orbital
Experimental
Module (
POEM)
