#3104 satellites were deployed in this mission:
a) Cartosat 2 Series - primary payload.
b) 88xDove (88x3U CubeSats) - 22 QuadPack deployers.
c) 8xLEMUR (8x3U CubeSats) - 2 QuadPack deployers.
d) BGUSat (3U CubeSat), PEASSS (3U CubeSat), DIDO-2 (3U CubeSat), Al-Farabi-1 (2U CubeSat), and Nayif-1 (1U CubeSat) - 1 QuadPack deployer.
e) INS-1A and INS-1B are not in CubeSat format. So, they need to be mounted separately on payload adapter.
So, 1 primary payload + 25 QuadPack deployers + 2 nano-sats in total.

#10CubeSats came a long way from being a hitchhiker to main payload to significant percentage of total payload.
The question is when, CubeSats will be the primary payload.
