The excellence of Advanced Light Helicopter - Dhruv
has been once again acknowledged –
now in civil role by placement of a major order by Oil
and Natural Gas Corporation of India (ONGC).
ONGC has placed an order for three Dhruv helicopters
worth over Rs.100 crores in civil role which will be
delivered by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) shortly.Earlier
in the year, HAL had received order for two Dhruv in
civil version from Government of Jharkhand.
Further, Government of Karnataka has also entered into
an agreement with HAL for lease of one Dhruv helicopter
for VIP communication duties. These major orders prove
the excellent capability, reliability as well as maintainability
