India's first private helicopter assembly line will produce 10 Airbus H125 helicopters annually, aiming to meet civil, para-public, and military needs including Himalayan operations.

  • Delivery of the first 'Made in India' Airbus H125 is expected in early 2027 from Vemagal, Karnataka, TASL announced on Wednesday.
  • Aiming to meet defence needs, the project targets Indian armed forces' light multi-role helicopter demand for Himalayan frontiers and includes an H125M military version with indigenised components.
  • TASL will undertake assembly, integration, systems testing and final flight tests with an initial annual production capacity of 10 helicopters at the India FAL.
  • The move reinforces the Airbus–Tata partnership and sources $1 billion in Indian components, cementing Tata Advanced Systems Limited’s role in India's aerospace ecosystem.
  • India's civil fleet is small, with about 250 helicopters till last year, while the region totals around 350; Airbus projects demand for 500 H125-class helicopters over the next 20 years.
