A Nation-wide Summit for Industry Leaders

The STAT Trade Times popularly known as STAT Times published every month is dedicated to provide in-depth coverage for the Aviation industry globally. STAT Times is the only integrated transport news source which is appreciated and used by the decision makers for their commercial benefits since 1986.
Having been involved in the dissemination of information in the aviation industry for over three decades, STAT Times finds enormous opportunities in the Aviation MRO market in India which is estimated to be US$ 1.7 billion in 2021. Also, it is now expected to cross US $4 billion by 2030.
The Ministry of Defence in India (MoD) is actively engaging with the private players for MRO of defence aircrafts. With over a 1,000 aircraft currently on order, the country is likely to become the third-largest buyer of commercial passenger planes in the world, only after the US and China.
The Industry says that this shall create a demand for 200–300 major maintenance checks annually. Replacing ageing aircraft in the fleets of several airlines also creates scope for MRO to meet redelivery contracts.
Thus, after the successful conclusion of 4th edition of Aerospace & Defence MRO South Asia summit, STAT Times is back with a region specific AEROSPACE & DEFENCE, MRO KARNATAKA 2023 Summit. The theme of the conference “Invest in MRO Karnataka” attempts to highlight the investment opportunities in Aerospace, MRO Tech, Research & other related industries in the region, to prospective players at large.

This is a very well managed event and the effort to bring all the experts under one roof in a 2-day seminar with lot of key people is highly appreciated. I was very impressed with Vandana Aggarwal's speech. It is very important as you cannot move the industry forward without the Government support.

The MRO industry in India is not giving the picture of stability or clear future predictions. So if we are looking at long term stability in MRO, we have to show our younger generation that kind of stability and future. Unless we achieve that, MRO industry will lack the skilled technicians.

One of the major requirement for MRO will be land, and in India we have large number of unused airfields which are ideal for MRO. We have a platform, a runway for test flights, the will, the time and the resources. We could not have a better time and place to share our thoughts.

The aviation industry is not as glamorous as it used to be, and it is our responsibility to put the passion back in the industry. It has to be a collective responsibility to help create awareness about aviation industry.
