Explanation:

1 and 2 only

It is the heaviest rocket ever made by India.

This statement is correct. GSLV-Mk-III is indeed a heavy-lift launch vehicle developed by ISRO, it is not the heaviest rocket ever made by India. The Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark III (GSLV-Mk III) is designed to carry heavier payloads than its predecessors

This statement is correct. GSLV-Mk-III is developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and is part of India's indigenously developed launch vehicle program.

The cryogenic stage uses atmospheric oxygen as a propellant.

This statement is incorrect. The cryogenic stage of GSLV-Mk-III uses liquid oxygen (LOX) and liquid hydrogen (LH2) as propellants, not atmospheric oxygen.

Therefore, the correct option is 3 (1 and 2 only).
