As engine production rates remain under pressure and component supply continues to lag across programmes, manufacturers and their partners are adding capacity at established locations. ITP Aero has begun construction of a new manufacturing facility in Hyderabad, expanding its operations in India, where it has been operating for 15 years.
The facility is expected to be fully operational in 2027 and will manufacture commercial aviation engine components, including fabrications and machined parts. These components will support civil aerospace programmes and contribute to global demand for commercial aviation.
Across ITP Aero’s portfolio, this activity relates to structural and static engine components rather than rotating modules, including casings, external structures and fabricated assemblies that require precision machining and forming processes. These parts are supplied into larger engine modules across multiple programmes, which explains the focus on expanding fabrication and machining capacity at existing sites such as Hyderabad.
The new site adds to the company’s existing Hyderabad operation, which already undertakes precision manufacturing of aeroengine components. Over the past 15 years, this unit has built machining and fabrication capabilities that support engine structures and modules for international programmes. The expansion increases capacity within the same line of work rather than introducing a new activity.
ITP Aero said the project will create more than 350 skilled jobs over the next five years, in addition to the 250 manufacturing roles currently supported at its Hyderabad base. The hiring is expected to be linked to production functions associated with component manufacturing and related processes.
D. Sridhar Babu, Minister for Information Technology, Electronics & Communications, Industries & Commerce, Government of Telangana, said the investment strengthens the state’s aerospace manufacturing ecosystem and supports the development of local industrial capability connected to global supply chains.
Carlos Alzola, Managing Director of ITP Aero Group, said Hyderabad has been part of the company’s industrial development for 15 years and that the new facility reflects confidence in the region’s manufacturing capability and workforce. He also referred to the support received from the Government of Telangana during this period.
ITP Aero has also appointed Sandeep Sharma as Managing Director for India. Sharma has more than 20 years of experience in the aerospace sector and has held leadership roles at Pratt & Whitney across supply chain, business development, finance and customer service.
Sharma said Hyderabad provides the combination of skilled talent, industrial infrastructure and an established supplier base required to support expansion. The new facility will increase manufacturing output and deepen engagement with local partners and suppliers.
The expansion comes alongside a period of growth for the company. In 2025, ITP Aero reported revenues of €1.88 billion, an increase of 17 per cent, and EBITDA of €379 million, up 28 per cent. The company has also committed €1.2 billion in research and development and capital expenditure through 2030 across its global operations.
The additional capacity in Hyderabad comes as engine programmes continue to work through supply constraints linked to component availability and production sequencing. Expansions at sites already integrated into global manufacturing networks tend to move faster than new capability build-outs, placing locations such as Hyderabad in a stronger position to take on a larger share of component production as output requirements increase.
