The joint venture will focus on assembling 70–150 seat regional aircraft, including the E-Jet E2 family, aimed at strengthening regional connectivity across Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities. The facility is expected to take 3–4 years to become operational, with the first aircraft rollout targeted within five years.
