Drone manufacturer Garuda Aerospace has become India’s first drone startup to receive both Type Certification and RTPO approvals by DGCA for their indigenously designed Kisan Drones.
DGCA Type certification is provided on the basis of the quality check of the drones and is issued after a rigorous testing process for the UAVs.
The Type certification was introduced by the government of India in August 2021 under Drone Rules and the historic dual DGCA approval validates the Chennai-based startup’s tag of being India’s most valuable Drone startup.
Made in India 'Kisan' drones are specially developed for agricultural purposes such as reducing crop losses, crop health monitoring, yield measurement etc. with latest manufacturing capabilities.
Garuda Aerospace recently raised its $30 million Series A at a valuation of $250 million.
Former Indian cricket team captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has invested in it and is also the brand ambassador of the company.
MS Dhoni has recently launched a drone named ‘Droni’.
