Bangalore may host aircraft maintenance facility

Bangalore: Over the next five months or so, either Bangalore, Hyderabad or Kochi may play host to an MRO (maintenance, repairs and overhaul) facility for aircraft. An MRO is a third party maintenance facility for aircraft. India today has an acute shortage of such facilities for high-end checks.
With the open sky policy leading to proliferation of aircraft during the last two years and the expected increase over the next few years, it makes good business sense to base an MRO in India as there is likely to be enough volume to yield a good revenue model.
Auk Aviation Pvt Ltd, a Bangalore-based firm, hopes to set up an MRO facility soon.
