Nabhdrishti Aerospace, co-founded in 2023 in Bengaluru, aims to develop India’s first indigenous fuel-flex micro gas turbine, targeting aviation and power generation. The startup challenges the dominance of established global manufacturers by leveraging the founders’ 35 years of combined expertise and incubation support.

Their design can use multiple fuels for mechanical energy, thereby boosting efficiency. Entering this highly competitive market involves tackling significant technological, financial, and regulatory hurdles.

The case study uses the Desirability, Viability and Feasibility (DVF) framework to analyse the startup’s market entry strategy. With early funding secured, Nabhdrishti aims for a future where India gains strategic autonomy in jet engine technology.
