Abstract

We present the first report of the detection of sudden ionospheric disturbances (SIDs) due to a Soft Gamma Ray Repeater (SGR) SGR J1550-5418 and a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) GRB 090424. These detections were made with receiving stations of Indian Centre for Space Physics which were monitoring Very Low Frequency signals (VLFs) from the VTX transmitter located at the southern tip of Indian sub-continent. These positive detections add to the list of a handful of similar detections of other GRBs and SGRs throughout the world.
