IG Drones is eyeing aggressive expansion in the sector with its upcoming manufacturing facility in Vadodara, a top executive said.
“For the upcoming years, we are planning to go aggressive with manufacturing, particularly for the defence sector. We are setting up a large-scale manufacturing plant in Gujarat in Vadodara at Vadodara airspace park. So, per year, we are roughly targeting 1,000 drones to be manufactured from our facility," Bodhisattwa Sanghapriya, founder and chief executive officer, IG Drones told Mint.
"This will be 90% for defence and the 10% will be for civilian applications. We work with a long-term vision. Today, there is a huge demand for a drone as hardware. But, ten years down the line, drones will be commoditized. And, then drones will not play a major role. The data (collected via drones) will play a major role," Sanghapriya added.
Established in 2018, IG Drones currently can produce 100 drones per year. It also offers solutions in high-precision drone surveying, mapping, and inspection across industries.
