Personally I would still prefer MMS anyday over RG.

There is nothing like overconfidence in science and engineering. If it is a test rocket, it -is a- test rocket/period. Overconfidence is when you take a gamble, just as in ISRO´s case, by not using dummy satellite, assuming everything would go well. It was a matter of judgement (taken by ISRO boss)...

I think 1000kg is heavy

But what is the actual definition of actual mass of the payload as per the international aeroscpace industry practices?

If I differ with your above claim and instead say that its not heavy - its a medium payload, how would you substantiate your argument?

Ariane has bigger load than GSLV, why it does not fail often? Ariane also had its share of failures. I am sure you are aware of that, GSLV is still in development stage with three models, one with CUS from Russia, another with CUS from Russia - with extended parameters and third with indigenous CUS...

It may be possible that this failure is due to configuration change in the vehicle(?) - this vehicle was reported to be taller and heavier, and IIRC a larger payload fairing.
