MS Dhoni-Backed Garuda Aerospace Bags Its First Order From ISRO

Garuda Aerospace has collaborated with the Department of Space’s Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to supply its cutting-edge Quadcopter drones.  

Garuda Aerospace's Quadcopter drones are integrated with machine learning and artificial intelligence. The use of these drones in ISRO's operations is expected to significantly enhance efficiency across various ISRO operations, a statement read issued by the company. 

ISRO had begun sampling Garuda Aerospace’s drones in 2021 for the delivery of medicines and food supplies.  Following this, the drone start-up also engaged in the sanitisation of building premises with the spraying of disinfectants during COVID-19.  

Speaking on this milestone, Agnishwar Jayaprakash, CEO, and founder of Garuda Aerospace said, “Receiving an order from the esteemed Indian Space Research Organisation marks a monumental achievement for us. It showcases our dedication and relentless pursuit of excellence. We firmly believe that Drones and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles will play a pivotal role in the space sector.  Our partnership with ISRO not only validates our credibility but also solidifies our position as industry leaders.” 

These drones can be customised to withstand atmospheric pressure and gravity. They can hence be used for surveying, mapping, and also sample collection.  

Garuda Aerospace has made significant strides in the drone sector with its major advancements. It recently launched its border patrolling drone, Trishul. Garuda Aerospace is the first drone company in India to receive dual DGCA approvals. These approvals encompass the manufacturing of small and medium-category drones, along with pilot training. The Dhoni-backed company is all set to go public by the end of 2024 thereby demonstrating the ongoing growth and leadership in the industry.
