1.1.1 Industry Profile
This section provides the brief introduction about the industry and its initiation over
the years and also the various products that are manufactured by the Mahindra Group.
And I have focused more on the core values of the company.
Aerospace includes the atmosphere of Earth & surrounding space, the term is used to
refer to the industries, designs, manufactures, operates and maintains vehicles moving
over air and space.
Aerospace and airspace is not on and the same is a term used to define the physical air
space directly above a location on the ground .Aerospace is a varied field ,with a
gathering of industrial ,commercial ,and military applications.
Aerospace Manufacturing is a high technology industry that produces “aircraft”,
space vehicles, aircraft engines, production units and related parts.
As the communication distance becoming smaller and with the continuing „War of
Terror‟, Aerospace and defense industry is poised to grow at a faster rate .After seeing
success with Information Technology(IT),India is poised to become a significant
outsourcing centre for global aerospace firms as it has economical and skilled engineers
.With software centre for global aerospace firms as is has economical and skilled
engineers and information technology (IT) people coupled with cost advantages makes
India‟s major player.
1.1.2 History
The Indian aerospace industry is considered one of the fastest growing aerospace
markets in the world. Such large growth has attached major companies to India and
consequently all areas of the aerospace sector are showing significant growth .Several factors
are driving the surge in the manufacturing output in the aerospace industry .Both macro and
micro factors come in to play.
The Aerospace and Defense Industry was struggling to Maintain profitability even
before 11th September2001,and fears of further terrorism ,the conflicts in Afghanistan and
Iraq, and a weak economy combined to devastate the commercial Aerospace Industry over
the ensuring years .On the other hand ,the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have bolstered the
coffers if many defense companies, through belt tightening may be on the way.
The mother of all defense deals occurred in 2001 when Lockheed beat out Boeing for
the 200 dollars billion joint strike Fighter contact, the largest Defense contact ever .Spread
out over almost 30 years ,it may be the last major deal for drones is expected to continue
,supplanting the need for the more expensive manned Aircraft and making it unnecessary to
risk pilot‟ slaves in comb it.
On the commercial side, airlines- by far the biggest customers in the sector have lost
billions since 2001.By way of illustration ,the top nine airlines lost $ 10 billion in 2002
,almost $ 6 billion in 2004,and both UAL(the parent of united Airlines) and US Airways have
filed for bankruptcy protection.
In 2001 Boeing and Airbus ,the world‟s only large commercial aircraft market ,saw
orders plummet by 45% and 28% , respectively ,Airbus recently surpassed Boeing on orders
Boeing cut about 30000 jobs or roughly 30% of its commercial aircraft workforce in
2002. Aircraft orders picked up in 2003 and 2004 as Being and Airbus continues to Duke it
out for airline orders .Boeing is working on its long-range ,fuel efficient, mid-sized ,7E7
Dream Liner and a 550 passenger Behemoth .Airbus then upped the ante by announcing that
it would build the A350 to compete directly with Boeing7E7.
i. Gippsland aeronautics in Australia end to end aircraft design and production 200
aircrafts in 40 countries
ii. Aero staff Australia high precision metal components and assemblies to stringent

In 2009, Mahindra initiates acquisitions of Gippsland and aero staff .Mahindra commits

In 2010, Gippsland Aero's Airvan becomes the first Australian built aircraft to
circumnavigate the globe for 'millions against malaria' - sponsored by Mahindra Aerospace
team seizes n opportunity to acquire sheet metal equipment from Australia and increase
global supply chain offering.
In 2011, another first for Indian Aviation- Indian design expertise and Australian
rapid prototyping come together for the first flight of the C-NM5 at Gippsland Aero facility
.Mahindra Aerospace breaks ground for the aero structures facility at a new industrial area
outside Bangalore.
In 2013, Gibbs Aero delivers the 200th Airvan .India plans completed and commence quality
approval processes.
