Mahindra and Embraer identify Nagpur as a potential location for a C-390 Millennium assembly line in India. Coverage across outlets says the proposal centers on building local manufacturing and assembly capability for the aircraft, with plans that could also support related industrial activities.

The reports describe the facility as tied to India’s “Make in India” push, including development of a supply chain and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) activities. NDTV adds that the plan depends on formal steps, including an Indian Air Force (IAF) selection process and a government order before any facility is finalized. Other sources frame the effort more broadly around local production, including manufacturing and assembly operations.

While the outlets agree on the Nagpur location and the aircraft type, they differ mainly in emphasis—some focus on the industrial and ecosystem benefits (local supply chain and MRO), while NDTV highlights the conditional nature of the announcement pending military and government approvals.
