On June 5, 2019, the Indian Navy has tested a Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicle (DSRV) and transferred personnel underwater from a submarine. The "live mating" exercise between DSRV and Kilo-class submarine INS Sindhuraj which was simulating as a distressed vessel was carried out on June 2 off the East coast.

The personnel were transferred from Sindhuraj to DSRV underwater and brought safely to the surface. The transfer of personnel from the depth of the ocean is a new skill acquired by the Indian Navy. It will help it in dealing with submarine emergencies.
