Well if ur definition for space club means only satellites,India has been part of it for nearly 30 years launching satellites on Soviet/Russian,European & American launchers at the start & later on it's homemade PSLV & GSLV
systems.India sent it's first man to space in 1984 when squadron leader Rakesh Sharma boarded the Soyuz-11 Soviet Space craft.As of now,India's space ambitions are restricted to satellites(weather/communications/remote -sensing etc) ,research(primarily with France,Germany,Israel among others) & an unmanned probe to the moon in 2007-2008(which will carry payloads from a number of nations).There are no solid plans for a man in space from an Indian launch vehicle for atleast 10 years as it would be of no practical use & unlike the Chinese,propaganda is of limited use in a democratic nation like India.
