Propelling India to the Forefront of Tech Brilliance

From the Chairman's desk

The Global Bharat Space City (GBS City) is India's (Bharat) defining leap into a future shaped by innovation, resilience, and sovereignty. With MAKE IN INDIA, we are reclaiming a significant share of the $20 billion annually drained by imports of critical technologies, transforming dependence into strength.

Every rocket engine/ capsule, every helicopter/ aircraft system, every defence equipment, every silicon wafer crafted within our borders fortifies both our economy and strategic autonomy.

At the heart of this transformation lies a vision—to make Bharat not just a player, but a global powerhouse in space, defence, aeronautics, and digital infrastructure. GBS City is Bharat’s cosmic leap—where science, ingenuity, and ambition converge to script a new chapter in aerospace and beyond.

GBS City will house and entire eco system comprising of MSMEs and manufacturers of world-class semiconductor foundries, Defence equipment manufacturing, cutting-edge aerospace R&D, and hyperscale data centers, ensuring that our nation is not just consuming technology but exporting innovation. What the world buys at a premium, we will craft affordably, turning Bharat into the nerve center of the space age and the digital revolution. And we do so with a commitment to sustainability—where innovation is balanced with responsibility, and progress is measured not just in GDP but in global impact.

GBS is not just a city—it is Bharat’s launchpad to the future. 🚀

Phase 1 Developments

Phase 1 of GBS City represents a bold vision for the future, with investments exceeding $20 billion USD directed toward industries of strategic significance. This transformative development is set to generate over 30,000 skilled jobs—both directly and indirectly—within the next 5 to 7 years, fuelling growth, energising communities, and positioning the city as a global hub of opportunities and economic excellence.

Akashganga Space hub

While ISRO has incredible milestones to its credit, limited infrastructure for private sector participation in the $469 billion global space economy constrains India’s ability to scale projects and meet its 2047 Space Vision.

The solution??

Bharat Aerospace hub

India’s aerospace sector is heavily reliant on HAL, which is currently overstretched to meet the growing demand for aerospace manufacturing. This hampers India’s ability to efficiently support its defense and civil aircraft fleets while missing out on the rapidly expanding global aerospace market.

Solution: The Bharat Aerospace Hub will establish a new, state-of-the-art aerospace facility, driving the manufacturing of critical aircraft parts for existing fleets. It will also position India as a key player in the global Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) market, while fostering the production of civil aircraft and helicopters within the country.

Dron Vayu Private Ltd has partnered with Dynamatic Technologies Ltd to meet the Indian Air Force’s (IAF) demand for parts manufacturing for its fleet of aircraft and helicopters. In addition, these advanced facilities will serve the global aerospace market, supporting the maintenance and production needs of aircraft fleets worldwide

Led by Vyom Space exploration and services Private Ltd, alongside leading space agencies and private enterprises. Vyom Space has already secured agreements with ISRO for its Pushpak-Human Capsule, and limitless possibilities beckon with the next gen Indian rockets, designed to redefine the boundaries of space exploration.

With the robust infrastructure at Sriharikota in place, the moment is ripe to accelerate India’s space ambitions, as envisioned in Honb'le Prime Minister's Space Vision 2047.

Akashganga Space Hub will serve as a premier destination for global companies joining as OEMs, addressing Indian and global demand for next-generation rockets, human capsule cargo programs, the Bharat Antariksh Station, lunar missions, and sea launch platforms. To support these ambitious projects, we will build world-class infrastructure, including dedicated townships for OEM employees and their families, alongside R&D centres to drive long-term collaboration and innovation.

India remains the world’s largest importer of arms, accounting for 9.8% of global defence imports. This dependency not only strains the national budget, it exposes the country to security risks due to supply chain vulnerabilities.

Our Solution: The Bharat Defence Hub aims to build indigenous manufacturing capabilities for UAVs, coastal surveillance systems, armoured vehicles, and advanced ammunition. This will drastically reduce reliance on imports and enhance India’s defence self-reliance, reinforcing national security and economic stability.

GBS City will also serve as a hub for global companies to manufacture defence equipment, aligning with India’s "Make in India" initiative. This will accelerate technological advancements and position India as a leader in global defence manufacturing.

Bharat Defence Hub

Bharat Silicon Hub

The Digital Economy is a key focus of India's development strategy, positioning the nation as a global leader in innovation and technology. India is pioneering the creation of entirely new processes for software development and hardware engineering, particularly in the areas of semiconductors and microchips. These cutting-edge technologies are expected to be among the most advanced in the world, driving India towards complete self-sufficiency.

The Bharat Silicon Hub would establish a robust domestic semiconductor ecosystem, not only ensure independence in critical technology but also develop proprietary intellectual property (IP) that will be fully owned and controlled within the country. This move will empower India to play a pivotal role in the global digital economy, contributing to both national security and economic growth.

Bharat Data Centre Hub

The GBS City Data Centre Hub is designed to serve not only the city’s big data needs but also the expanding demands of hyper-scalers, cloud providers, and networking companies worldwide.

The carbon-neutral, green energy-powered facility will offer an impressive 100MW capacity per data centre. Backed by the Green Horizons Project, it will be designed for ultimate reliability, providing uninterruptible renewable power to ensure seamless operation.

The high-security campus will feature a dedicated power plant, water reservoir, utility nodes, and ultra-fast fiber optic lines, providing unrivaled connectivity. With defensive architecture built to protect against all known risks, this will be a digital fortress, ready to meet the demands of the future while maintaining the highest standards of sustainability and security.

The Bharat MSME Hub

At the core of GBS City’s transformative vision lies a dynamic MSME Hub, designed to power a self-sustaining ecosystem for space, aerospace, defence, helicopter production, and semiconductor industries. This hub will serve as the backbone of innovation and precision manufacturing, enabling micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to integrate seamlessly into high-value global supply chains.

By fostering cutting-edge R&D, indigenous production capabilities, and strategic partnerships, the hub will reduce import dependency, accelerate technological advancements, and enhance cost competitiveness.

Aligned with the Government of India’s and the Government of Andhra Pradesh’s MSME growth initiatives, GBS City’s MSME Hub will unlock access to policy incentives, skill development programs, and financial support mechanisms, ensuring a thriving industrial landscape.
