Make In India Gets Wings: Adani, Brazil’s Embraer To Build Commercial Aircraft In India

India takes a major leap in its Make in India journey as the Adani Group partners with Brazil’s Embraer to set up a final assembly line for commercial fixed-wing aircraft in the country. This marks the first-ever commercial aircraft manufacturing initiative in India, putting the country firmly on the global aviation manufacturing map. With Indian airlines placing 1,500–1,800 aircraft orders globally, the move could reduce import dependence, create thousands of skilled jobs, and boost ancillary aviation industries. The deal is expected to be formally inked at Wings India 2026 in Hyderabad, with details on investment, aircraft models, and manufacturing location awaited. A landmark step for aviation, employment, and self-reliance.
