From 2024 onwards, Aerolloy will produce the full range of Titanium castings parts for the Rafale multirole fighter aircraft and the Falcon business jet program.

The company manufactures and supplies titanium and superalloy castings for Aerospace and Defence applications within India as well as for exports.

PTC Industries is a leading Indian manufacturer of precision metal components for critical applications.

The increasing demand for aerospace and defence components, particularly in India’s domestic market, presents a significant opportunity for PTC, it said.

With the government’s focus on self-reliance, PTC said its capabilities in producing high-quality materials and parts can align well with the country’s objectives to reduce import dependence.
