I am really alarmed.
No update of A-L1 orbit parameters aka TLE.
Also ISRO not sharing Orbit parameters on Horizons.
Does it have something to do with ISRO- ESA tie-up for Precision orbit determination methodology?

Any guess of 1 Halo orbit period? Hrs or days?
Played around with SOHO, but could not find any periodicity with different time periods.
