Sigma gets ₹3,800 crore Rolls-Royce contract for aerospace parts

New Delhi: In a major boost to India’s defence and aerospace exports, Hyderabad-based Sigma Advanced Systems has secured a ₹3,800 crore order from Rolls-Royce Holdings Plc to supply aerospace parts to the British multinational. The deal will be executed over the next seven years and will see Sigma emerge as a key part of Rolls-Royce’s global supply chain.

Sigma will supply a wide portfolio of high-precision-engineered, safety-critical components and assemblies for Rolls-Royce’s aerospace programmes. Deliveries will be made through the company’s manufacturing network across India and the UK.

The partnership is expected to deliver multi-year revenues to Sigma, besides positioning it as a long-term player for high-value aerospace programmes, helping gain visibility for such programmes being planned in India as well.

“This partnership with Rolls-Royce reflects how our strategy is taking shape,” said Sunil Kumar Kalidindi, chief executive at Sigma Advanced Systems. “It validates the investments we have made in building a connected India-UK platform and our focus on quality, reliability and long-term partnerships. We see this as an opportunity to deepen our role in global aerospace programmes while continuing to scale our capabilities across both regions.”

Leveraging its India-UK dual-source model, the company is looking to bring cost-efficient scale in India and is seeking to transition from a system player to a more integrated manufacturing partner capable of handling larger work packages.
