GSAT-4 Satellite:

G-Sat-4 Satellite also known as HealthSat Satellite. This satellite Launched in April, 2010 by ISRO.  Its Mission duration had planned for 7 years but according to my knowledge it's failed to be in orbit.

Longitude: 82°E (planned)

Transponders: Ka-band bent pipe and regenerative transponder

GSAT-8 Satellite:

GSAT-8 is communication satellite, for Television and Radio Channels. It is also constructed by ISRO as part of INSAT System. GSAT-8 Satellite was launched on Date of May 21st 2011.

It's planned duration more that for 12 years.
