Heritage Aviation, a company that provides helicopter services, has bought a new Airbus H130 helicopter.
This helicopter is special because it can fly in tough places like mountains and sensitive areas.
It can carry one pilot and up to seven passengers.
The company plans to use it to help people travel to different parts of India, especially in the North East, where helicopter services are not very common.
The helicopter will be delivered in September 2026 at an event called Wings India 2026.
