Our Role in the
Growing Aerospace Market
| India’s aviation sector presents a transformative growth opportunity, with per capita air travel currently at just 0.1 trips annually significantly lower than China’s 0.5 trips and USA’s 2.1 trips per capita indicating vast untapped potential in a market of over 1.4 billion people. The government’s ambitious Vision 2047 aims to expand India’s airport infrastructure from the current 164 operational airports to 350-400 airports, while targeting 1 billion passengers annually and creating 25 million jobs in the aviation sector. With the UDAN scheme already facilitating regional connectivity through 323k flights carrying 15.6 million passengers, India is projected to become the fastest growing major aviation market globally, with a passenger growth rate of 10.5% in 2026 compared to China’s 8.9%, and a long-term industry CAGR of 5.5% through 2053. Darien Aerospace is strategically positioned to support this expansion by providing the necessary infrastructure and expertise to meet the increasing demands for efficient and reliable aerospace solutions. |
