Adani Defence Systems & Tech to acquire aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul company Air Works

Adani Defence Systems & Technologies Ltd. (ADSTL) has signed definitive agreements to acquire aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul company Air Works.

Air Works has a presence in 27 cities.

“Air Works has developed extensive operational capabilities within the country for key defence and aerospace platforms. From the first P-8I aircraft Phase 32 checks to Phase 48 checks and MRO on the landing gear of the Indian Air Force’s 737 VVIP aircraft, Air Works undertakes base maintenance for ATR 42/72, A320 and B737 fleet of aircraft from its EASA and DGCA-certified facilities at Mumbai, Delhi, Hosur and Kochi,” said a statement.


“Given India's growth trajectory and the Government's focus to network the nation through a massive mesh of air connectivity, it is inevitable that the primary growth of India's airline and airport sector lies ahead of it. Therefore, the Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul sector has a crucial role to play in both, the defence and civilian aerospace sector. Add to this the ongoing modernisation program to make India a large market for defence aircrafts, and what emerges is one of the most exciting, comprehensive, at scale and digital MRO services within the boundaries of the nation.” said Ashish Rajvanshi, CEO of Adani Defence & Aerospace.

Air Works was established in 1951.

Adani Defence & Aerospace is the defence manufacturing arm of the $250 billion Adani Group.
