New Delhi. A new era is going to start in India’s aviation industry from today. Because, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will today inaugurate the Tata Aircraft Complex established by Tata Advanced Systems in Vadodara, Gujarat for the manufacturing of C-295 aircraft. Tata Group will manufacture C-295 aircraft in India in collaboration with Spanish company Airbus. Both PM Modi and Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez will inaugurate this plant. Airbus and Tata Advanced Systems will together manufacture 40 aircraft at the Vadodara plant. The special thing is that this agreement was signed between Airbus and Tata Group during the tenure of late Ratan Tata, who was the honorary chairman of Tata Group. Tata Group will make its first airplane by 2026.

This plane, being manufactured in India, is a very important milestone in the journey of aviation development and manufacturing. This will not only make airplanes in the country but will also provide job opportunities to qualified people associated with this industry.
