Chandrayaan-3 lander and propulsion module seperated at a higher orbit than expected.

The propulsion module is supposedly to be in 100km circular orbit after separation with lander. It means that the lander should be in the same orbit of 100km circular too.

The actual orbit after separation is 113km x 157km on August 19. Now the lander has to do part of the job that was supposedly done by the propulsion module.

I have the feeling that the moon base (ILRS) is going to be 99% or more Chinese if the failure by Russia continues after Luna-25
Why did it take weeks for India's lunar mission to reach the moon having launched back in July 14 vs Russia's launched in August 10? What's the technical differences between the two competing platforms?
