News183 days ago
Mumbai, Aug 5 (PTI) Hyderabad-based aerospace startup Jeh Aerospace on Tuesday announced it has secured USD 11 million in a Series A funding round led by Elevation Capital, with participation from existing investor General Catalyst, for scaling up its manufacturing capacity and operational capabilities.
The fresh funds infusion comes shortly after the corporate venture arm of IndiGo made its first investment in Jeh Aerospace last month.
Founded by industry veterans Vishal Sanghavi and Venkatesh Mudragalla, alumni of Tata's aerospace joint ventures with Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Sikorsky, Jeh Aerospace combines deep sectoral expertise with sharp operational execution capabilities.
Within its first year of operations, the company has expanded to a 100-member team of specialised engineers and technicians, delivered 100,000 flight-critical aeroengine components and precision tools meeting AS9100 standards, and secured USD100 million in long-term contracts with global aerospace firms.
'We are redefining aerospace manufacturing with software-driven precision, ensuring that high-quality parts are delivered reliably and on time. This funding from Elevation Capital and General Catalyst will allow us to build mega factories and enhance our technology while continuing to deliver exceptional value to our global customers," said Sanghvi, who is also the CEO of Jeh Aerospace.
The company said the strategic investment from IndiGo Ventures last month reflects the platform's growth and leadership in innovative manufacturing.
The company said it is building resilience in aerospace manufacturing by focusing on talent and technology.
Earlier this year, it had launched its Centre for Skills, an in-house training program to develop engineers and technicians. Its Centre for Resilience, a speed shop, has improved lead times for NPI (New Product Introduction) that are 10 times faster than traditional aerospace machine shops.
'Their software-defined manufacturing model addresses a fundamental challenge in the industry – the need for both precision and agility in production. Also, their ability to combine cutting-edge technology with deep manufacturing expertise, creating a solution that the global aerospace supply chain desperately needs," said Ashray Iyengar, Principal, Elevation Capital.

Trump's 100% tariff likely to shift more Taiwan's semiconductor industry to US

Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills A proposed 100% US tariff on semiconductor imports , announced by President Donald Trump, could force a strategic shift of Taiwan's chip production landscape, potentially pulling more of the island's semiconductor operations onto American soil, reports Focus Pei-chen, a researcher at the Taiwan Institute of Economic Research, warned that Trump's tariff threat signals a shift from incentive-driven industrial policy to one defined by force. "Now he is deploying the 'stick' strategy, imposing punitive tariffs unless companies invest in the US," she told Focus to Liu, this dual pressure, tax incentives for US-based production and tariffs for imports, could push global chipmakers to speed up their American investments. That shift might drive up costs throughout the semiconductor supply chain and, eventually, consumer electronics also noted that while the US wants to boost its domestic chip ecosystem, gaps in the supply chain, especially for equipment and materials, mean building fabs in America remains costly. "This could raise prices and create uncertainty for future market demand," she sudden declaration on Wednesday that "we'll be putting a tariff on of approximately 100% on chips and semiconductors" has sent shockwaves through the global tech sector. Though short on specifics, the statement carried a clear message: companies that manufacture in the US will be spared, while foreign-made chips will be not all chipmakers face the same risk. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co TSMC ), the world's largest contract chipmaker, may avoid the brunt of the tariff. Derek Scissors, senior researcher at the American Enterprise Institute, told Focus Taiwan that TSMC is likely "at the front of the line for an exemption," thanks to its massive investment in the US."There's no way TSMC is going to face a tariff, at least on the products it's making in the US," Scissors said, adding that the tariff plan introduces significant uncertainty, which could disrupt trade and investment decisions across the market confidence showed up immediately. Following Trump's announcement, TSMC's shares in Taipei soared nearly 5% to close at an all-time high, while its American depositary receipts (ADRs) jumped 4.86% later in the in April, Trump's blanket tariff policy targeted Taiwan with a 32% levy, later reduced to 20%. That's still higher than the 15% levied on Japan and South Korea. Scissors called the competitive disadvantage "actually quite small," but acknowledged that Taiwan might offer more US investment to bring the rate down.
