Embraer on Friday inaugurated its new India office of its fully-owned Indian subsidiary at WorldMark 4, Aerocity, New Delhi.

The event was graced by Brazil’s Vice President Geraldo Alckmin, Brazil’s Minister of Defense Jose Mucio, India’s Minister of Civil Aviation Shri Kinjarapu Rammohan Naidu and the Ambassador of Brazil to India Kenneth Felix Haczynski da Nobrega. The opening of the office sets the stage for an expanded role across all its business units — commercial aviation, defense, business aviation, services and support, and urban air mobility (UAM).

Embraer’s history in India dates back 20 years, when the first E-Jets began operations in 2005. Today, nearly 50 Embraer aircraft across 11 different types operate in India, serving the Indian Air Force, other government agencies, business jet operators and a commercial airline – Star Air.

Francisco Gomes Neto, President & CEO of Embraer, said: “The opening of our New Delhi corporate office marks a bold new chapter for Embraer in India – a market central to our global vision. This office spans across all our business units and will strengthen collaboration with partners, customers, and suppliers. We are committed to bringing world-class technology and innovation to support India’s aerospace growth, advance self-reliance, and help realize its ambition of becoming a global aviation hub.”

“Our office inauguration here in New Delhi reflects our ambition for further growth in the country," said Bosco da Costa Junior, President & CEO of Embraer Defense & Security. "Our aircraft have earned a reputation for performance and reliability, and we are confident that our multi-mission medium transport aircraft, the C-390 Millennium, is perfectly suited to bring additional capabilities to the Indian Air Force.”

Embraer’s activities in India span multiple sectors. In defense, the ERJ145 platform forms the basis of the Indian Air Force’s ‘Netra’ AEW&C aircraft, and the Legacy 600 aircraft is used for the transportation of government officials and VIPs by the Indian Air Force (IAF) and Border Security Force (BSF). Furthermore, Embraer is positioning the C-390 Millennium as the best solution for the Indian Air Force’s Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA) program.

In commercial aviation, the E-Jets family continues to unlock ‘blue ocean’ opportunities in tier-two and tier-three cities, enhancing regional connectivity and supporting India’s ambitions to become a leading global aviation hub. Star Air is an all-Embraer operator of E175 and ERJ 145 aircraft and is growing its operations across India.

Eve Air Mobility is working with JetSetGo to explore the deployment of its Urban Air Traffic Management software, Vector, that helps address congestion and supports sustainable travel. Separately, Eve partnered with Hunch Mobility to study the launch electric commuter flights in Bangalore that would establish the city as the region’s first hub for urban air mobility using eVTOLs.
