Supporting India’s net-zero emissions goals and the country’s ambition to pioneer the air taxi revolution by 2025, Vjaitra Air Mobilitya division of Darsh Dronobotics Systems Pvt Ltd, has announced its strategic partnership with Trouve Innovation Hub Inc, the statement said.
As part of this partnership, Trouve Innovation Hub Inc. will play a pivotal role in supporting Darsh Dronobotics Systems in raising the funds needed to build a full-scale prototype of the hydrogen air taxi.
The project aims to redefine the future of urban transport, offering an environmentally friendly and efficient alternative to traditional modes of travel, he said.
Ratandeep Tripathi, CEO, Vjaitra Air Mobility, said: “Their support in fundraising and innovation will be instrumental in bringing our hydrogen-based air taxi to life, in line with our commitment to sustainable and cutting-edge transportation solutions.”
These air taxis promise quieter flights, zero emissions and lower operating costs compared to conventional aircraft, he noted. The air taxis will be able to cover up to 600 kilometres, enabling users to travel from Delhi-NCR to Lucknow and other state capitals as well as other airports in metropolitan cities. Trouve Innovation Hub Inc. will help secure the necessary funding for the project, leveraging its extensive network of private investors, government funding and institutional support. This will enable Darsh Dronobotics Systems to accelerate development and bring the hydrogen air taxi closer to commercialisation.
The partnership will combine Vjaitra Air Mobility’s expertise in drone and aviation technology with Trouve Innovation Hub’s strengths in innovation and investment, creating a powerful synergy that will propel the project forward.
Faruk Rama, CEO of Trouve Innovation Hub Inc., said: “We are confident that together we can achieve new heights in developing green transportation technologies that will benefit cities and communities around the world.”
India, with its growing population and rapidly expanding urban centres, presents a huge opportunity for the introduction of hydrogen-based air taxis, the statement said.
The challenges posed by congested roads, traffic, air and noise pollution in many Indian cities make air taxis a very relevant and necessary solution, he said.
Beyond passenger transport, the air taxi is also intended for ambulance services, VIP escort and disaster recovery operations, helping to improve urban air mobility and emergency response capabilities, he said.
