Our Story

Nabhdrishti Aerospace is what happens when three friends and colleagues with deep domain expertise get together and ask a simple question: Why doesn't India have indigenous gas turbine technology?

Our Co-Founders Rohit, Arjun, and Antanu have combined 50+ years of experience with gas turbines, working at leading organizations in the space such GE, Rolls Royce, DRDO. Aware of India's need to import engines for even the most critical needs especially in aviation and defense, they decided to leverage their expertise.

They found believers very early on, in form of investors, government grants, advisors, and team members.

Together, we're on a mission to build critical technology that helps India move toward self-reliance.
