The facility is expected to create over 300 direct jobs and more than 1,000 indirect employment opportunities, delivering a significant boost to Telangana’s high-tech manufacturing ecosystem.
Avantel Ltd, a leading player in satellite communications and defence electronics, has inaugurated its second facility in Hyderabad to expand its footprint in indigenous aerospace and defence innovation. The ₹560-million investment marks a strategic milestone in the company’s growth journey and aligns with the national vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat or a self-reliant India.
Spread across 76,000 sq ft, the new facility will focus on the design, development, and manufacturing of software-defined radios (SDRs), radar systems, and satellite integration. It will also support assembly, integration, and testing (AIT) of satellites and enable the rollout of ground station as a service (GSaaS) for satellite data reception, strengthening India’s space-based communication infrastructure.
“This facility reinforces our commitment to the Make in India vision and enhances our ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions across aerospace, defence, and satellite domains,” said Siddhartha Abburi, Director, Avantel.
The facility is expected to generate over 300 direct jobs and more than 1,000 indirect employment opportunities, offering a significant boost to Telangana’s high-tech manufacturing ecosystem. It also strengthens Avantel’s in-house R&D capabilities and proprietary product development, positioning the company as a key contributor to India’s self-reliant defence architecture.
Avantel’s broader technology ecosystem includes mobile satellite services for Indian satellites, ensuring secure communications for strategic platforms. The company’s expansion reflects its long-term strategy to integrate innovation, operational efficiency, and indigenous capability across critical sectors.
The inauguration amplifies Avantel’s role in advancing India’s aerospace and defence ambitions, while contributing to national security, employment generation, and technological sovereignty.
