Turkish Technic and IndiGo have significantly expanded their partnership through a major agreement signed at MRO Middle East 2025, further solidifying their collaboration in the aviation maintenance sector. This agreement focuses on redelivery checks for more than 10 Airbus A320neo aircraft from IndiGo's fleet, showcasing the Indian carrier's trust in Turkish Technic's expertise.

The redelivery checks will be conducted at Turkish Technic's state-of-the-art facilities located at Istanbul Ataturk and Sabiha Gokcen airports. These advanced maintenance centers are equipped with cutting-edge technology and staffed by highly skilled engineers, ensuring a comprehensive and efficient inspection process for IndiGo's aircraft.

The redelivery process typically involves several key steps, including assembling definitive aircraft records, creating a "redelivery book/binder" with up-to-date status sheets, verifying compliance files for Airworthiness Directives, modifications, repairs, and components, sharing draft maintenance check packs and work scopes with stakeholders, conducting final acceptance/test flights and engine high-powered assurance runs, and completing and auditing the final technical aircraft return data package.

This meticulous approach ensures that all aircraft meet the highest standards of safety and performance before being returned to service.

Beyond the redelivery checks, Turkish Technic and IndiGo are in advanced discussions regarding an additional agreement for the Landing Gear Overhaul operations of IndiGo's Airbus A320neo fleet. This potential expansion of their partnership would further enhance IndiGo's maintenance strategy by leveraging Turkish Technic's expertise in high-quality component repairs and overhauls. 

Such collaborations not only strengthen the operational efficiency of IndiGo but also underscore Turkish Technic's growing presence in the Indian aviation sector, as demonstrated by similar agreements with other major Indian carriers.

This strengthened partnership is expected to significantly improve IndiGo's operational efficiency and maintain the highest standards of aircraft performance and regulatory compliance. It also reflects Turkish Technic's growing influence in the global MRO market, with substantial growth in external sales and an expanding workforce to support its increasing customer base.

Turkish Technic experienced a 27% increase in external sales in the first half of 2024 and over 25% growth in 2023, leading to a workforce expansion of more than 10% to 10,500 staff in 2023. This collaboration between Turkish Technic and IndiGo not only strengthens their existing relationship but also contributes to the overall advancement of the Indian aviation industry by ensuring world-class maintenance standards for one of its largest carriers.
