inorbit

Inorbit is a term used to describe two broad and distinct concepts. In astronomy and spaceflight, it refers to the state of an object that is moving under the gravitational influence of a primary body in a stable, curved path. The conventional wording in scientific contexts is “in orbit” as two words, but branding and some technical usages may present it as a single word, Inorbit.

As a proper noun, Inorbit has been used as the name of a retail brand in India. Inorbit Malls Pvt. Ltd. operated a chain of shopping malls under the Inorbit brand in various urban centers, offering a combination of national and international retailers, entertainment, and dining options. The brand positioned itself in the upscale segment of the Indian retail property market and contributed to the development of modern mall formats in its operating cities. Over time, corporate reorganizations and market changes led to acquisitions and transfers of ownership for individual properties, and the Inorbit brand is no longer uniformly active across all locations.

Beyond these uses, the term Inorbit may appear in other corporate, product, or project names unrelated to space or the original mall brand. Inorbit thus functions as both a descriptive term in science and a branded identifier in business contexts, with meanings that depend on the context in which it is encountered. See also: in orbit.
