Adani and Embraer Join Forces for Regional Aircraft Manufacturing in India

Adani Group and Embraer announced a strategic collaboration to establish a regional aircraft manufacturing facility in India. This partnership aims to boost indigenous manufacturing and air connectivity to Tier 2 and 3 cities. Both companies will also focus on technology transfer and supply chain development.

In a significant development for India's aviation industry, Adani Group and Brazilian aviation giant Embraer have teamed up to establish a regional aircraft manufacturing facility in the country. This strategic collaboration is set to bolster India's manufacturing capabilities, especially in civil aviation.

The partnership was formalized with a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed in the presence of officials from Adani Defence & Aerospace and Embraer at the civil aviation ministry in New Delhi. The venture will not only focus on assembling regional aircraft but also on enhancing India's supply chain, pilot training, and aftermarket services.

Civil Aviation Secretary Samir Kumar Sinha emphasized the importance of progressive technology transfer and the establishment of a robust supply chain to achieve a sustainable aviation ecosystem. The partnership aligns with India's Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative, aiming to make the country a hub for regional aircraft manufacturing.
