ISRO Aditya L1 launch | What happens after the launch? 

Once launched, the Aditya-L1 satellite will stay in Earth-bound orbits for 16 days. It is during this period that it will undergo five maneuvers to gain the necessary velocity for its journey. Subsequently, it will undergo a Trans-Lagrangian1 insertion maneuver, marking the beginning of its 110-days-long trajectory to the destination around L1. 

Once the satellite reaches the L1 point, another maneuver will bind Aditya-L1 to an orbit around L1.
