Defence offsets
For programmes sold into Indian defence and government, work placed with Nandan can be structured to count towards your offset obligations, subject to the terms of the programme.
We are looking for a small number of European partners. You hold the design and the customer. We hold a 120,000 sq ft factory, aerospace-grade certification and three decades of export experience. Together that is a business neither side builds alone.
Most partners start with one and grow into the others. The first is where the real volume sits. We build partnerships for the long term — on mutual trust, high quality and value for both sides.
Your drawings, your specification, your acceptance criteria. We build sub-assemblies or complete units in India, to your standards, and ship to Europe. Your entity sells to your customer. Your brand stays front and centre.
Our equipment, our certifications, supplied to you at transfer price. You put it in front of your market. The end sale is yours — your invoice, your customer, your after-sales relationship.
We already supply aviation, defence and industry across more than 35 countries. We are looking for partners who hold a market we do not — and partners who want manufacturing capacity they do not own. Start with a virtual coffee.
A working list of what we design and build today. Any of it can be made to your specification instead of ours.
Any of your products, built to your drawings.
Details coming soon. Specifications and drawings available on request.
A contract manufacturer is only as good as the certificates behind it. Ours are current, auditable, and available before you commit to anything.
Certificates, welding procedure specifications and inspection test plans are available from the first enquiry, under NDA.

Sixty per cent of the electricity our works consume is solar, generated on our own site.
We invest in education, empowerment and culture in the communities around our works in India.
