India has entered the rat race of manufacturing aerospace components with a bang. India has not only created a mammoth air support fleet on their own but are now exporting the resources and expertise to other countries.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Make in India’ has sprung a new hope for the Indian manufacturing sector. Though, in the past few decades’, Indian automotive sector has become one of India’s manufacturing giants,the aerospace sector is also witnessing a good policy move by the Indian Government.

Government organizations such as Hindustan Aerospace Limited (HAL) and Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) in collaboration with Russian Intel have successfully entered the turf, coming on par with aerospace giants such as Russia, USA and France to name a few. There are 5 major driving factors for the growth of Indian aerospace sector, viz. framework, government policies, infrastructure, competing industries and manpower. India, being a huge pool of abled workforce and skilled engineers, in alignment with the government policies had funding for development, which then showcased a massive uprising of aerospace research as a whole.
