According to Boeing’s Commercial Market Outlook India’s commercial aviation industry has achieved 51 consecutive months of double-digit growth. This growth is matched in other sectors of the country’s economy. According to Boeing’s long term forecast for commercial airplanes, India will need about 2,300 new jets in the next two decades which will be valued at $320 billion.

Dr. Keskar further praised India’s market growth in aviation by saying that India is the only country in the world with double digit growth in the last five months.

With these figures, India is sure to soar higher up the aerospace sector within the next couple of years. Going forward with this vision STAT Times had organised the 2-day MRO South Asia Summit, at the Taj Mahal Hotel, bringing together the aerospace industry experts under one roof.

The still developing nascent aerospace MRO market in India is all ripe and ready to be explored. On this note, the 2-day MRO South Asia Summit explored the deep insights within Indian MRO markets.
