The Adani Group has tied up with Brazil’s Embraer to make in India the latter’s popular regional jets, which are operated on short- to medium-haul routes. Adani Aerospace signed a MoU with Embraer in Brazil for the FAL, as per reports, in the biggest boost for PM Modi’s make-in-India programme in the aviation space. A formal announcement is expected later this month at the Hyderabad air show. Being the world’s fastest-growing aviation market with over 1,800 planes on order from airlines, the government has been keen that global aerospace majors set up final assembly lines (FALs) for commercial aircraft in India. With Embraer taking the lead, the government is looking at ways to incentivise customers who order from India’s first major commercial aircraft FAL, the reports said.
