Two aerospace companies, Gopalan Aerospace and Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group, are growing quickly.
Gopalan Aerospace expects to make a lot more money next year, between ₹120 crore and ₹130 crore, up from ₹80 crore this year.
This is because more Indian customers are buying their products.
They are also building new factories in Abu Dhabi and expanding their current one in Bengaluru.
They have special inventions called patents and are making more products like drones.
Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group just opened a new ₹100 crore factory and launched six new defence products, including different types of drones and engines.
They plan to build another big factory in 2026, which will create jobs for over 2,000 people.
Both companies are excited about the future and are investing a lot of money to grow even bigger.
Gopalan Aerospace targets ₹120-130 crore revenue in FY25, up from ₹80 crore in FY24.
Domestic defence orders now account for 60% of Gopalan Aerospace's pipeline.
Gopalan Aerospace plans to invest ₹50-100 crore in a new Abu Dhabi facility and ₹75 crore in expanding its Bengaluru facility.
Raghu Vamsi Aerospace Group launched a new ₹100 crore facility and six new defence products, including various drones and engines.
