FTG Opens Its First Manufacturing Facility in Hyderabad

GMR’s airport‑led, Built‑to‑Suit unit will produce avionics and cockpit electronics for global OEMs to deepen India’s role in aerospace supply chains.

Overview

  • FTG formally inaugurated the Hyderabad unit on Monday, marking the company’s entry into India and its fourth global manufacturing geography after Canada, the United States, and China.
  • The facility sits inside GMR Aerospace and Industrial Park, a 277‑acre airport‑led site developed with a customised Built‑to‑Suit building designed to meet global OEM standards.
  • FTG said the plant will design and manufacture advanced avionics and cockpit interface electronics for commercial and defence programmes for global original equipment manufacturers.
  • Company and GMR leaders highlighted India’s engineering talent and manufacturing support as drivers of the move, and FTG said the site will still need staff hires, industry certifications, and customer approvals as it scales.
  • GMR framed the project as a step toward stronger domestic and export supply chains and further positioning Hyderabad as a competitive hub for high‑reliability aerospace production.
