Need more Indian suppliers in global aerospace sector: K Rammohan Naidu
The Civil Aviation Minister says India wants more Indian suppliers in the global aerospace market. This matters to small firms, or MSMEs, because airlines here have ordered over 1,600 aircraft. Boeing already buys about ₹14,000 crore of goods and services from India each year. The push goes beyond assembly, into designing, certifying and making parts. If you run a small engineering unit, look at supplier registration options.
Key Statutory Highlights
- Indian airlines have placed orders for more than 1,600 aircraft, according to the Civil Aviation Minister.
- Boeing sources products and services worth nearly ₹14,000 crore from India every year.
- Boeing has around 300 suppliers in India, and 25 per cent of them are MSMEs.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you run a small engineering or components business, check your plant, skills and quality paperwork, then enquire about registering as a supplier to aerospace firms. Treat this as a possible opening, not a confirmed order.
