HAL Dismisses AMCA Exit Claims, Assures Robust Growth Despite Speculation

• DK Sunil, Chairman and MD of HAL, refutes claims of project delays and being excluded from India's Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program.
• HAL has received no official communication regarding its exclusion from the fifth-generation fighter project, cautioning against speculative media reports.
• The AMCA program's revenue is not factored into HAL's current financial outlook, as production timelines extend beyond 2035.
• HAL's growth for the next decade is secured by a strong order book and in-house designed platforms, including fighter jets, helicopters, and trainers.
• The company aims to significantly increase its civil aviation component to 25% of its portfolio over the next 10 years with new platforms like Dhruv NG and Hindustan 228.
