AIESL (AI Engineering Services)

AI Engineering Services Limited is a major provider of maintenance, repair, and overhaul services in South Asia. As a formerly integrated engineering wing of the national carrier now operating as a standalone entity under the Ministry of Civil Aviation, it serves as a primary technical hub for both narrow-body and wide-body commercial aircraft. The company operates extensive hangar facilities across major Indian aviation hubs, supporting the airworthiness of large commercial fleets through base and line maintenance. The organisation manages a diverse portfolio of airframes and powerplants, including the Boeing 777, Boeing 787 Dreamliner, and Airbus A320 families. Key customers include Air India and its subsidiaries, along with third-party domestic and international carriers. Its technical capabilities extend to engine maintenance for General Electric and CFM International models, as well as specialised component overhaul and landing gear services for heavy transport aircraft. Prospective partners should verify the current status of the organisation's privatisation process, as government divestment plans significantly impact long-term corporate governance. Verification of specific Directorate General of Civil Aviation and European Union Aviation Safety Agency approvals for specific sites and engine shops is essential. Additionally, buyers should assess the facility's capacity to handle new-generation composite structures and digital maintenance tracking systems before finalising service level agreements.
