New Delhi, November 9, 2026: Seeking to strengthen its Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) capabilities, GMR Aero Technic is investing around Rs 600 crore at its Hyderabad facility and also plans to offer wide-body aircraft painting services, according to a senior official.

GMR's MRO Operations In Hyderabad

GMR Aero Technic is a third-party airframe MRO facility at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad and is part of GMR Hyderabad International Airport Ltd (GHIAL).

At a conference in the national capital last week, executives said Indian airlines are looking at ways to boost capabilities and become “self-reliant” in carrying out MRO work within the country as they expand their aircraft fleets.

India's Growing MRO Market

The market for airframes, engines and components is estimated to triple to USD 9.5 billion by 2035 in India, aircraft maker Airbus said in January.

Currently, most of the detailed MRO work for wide-body aircraft is carried out overseas.

Also Watch:

India is one of the world's fastest-growing civil aviation markets, and domestic airlines have placed orders for over 1,600 aircraft estimated to be worth around USD 100 billion.
