Unimech boosts Dheya Engineering stake to enhance India's micro gas turbine capabilities.
Unimech Aerospace and Manufacturing Limited announced on December 23-24, 2025, that it has increased its equity stake in Bengaluru-based Dheya Engineering Technologies Private Limited to 30% from 17%, via compulsorily convertible preference shares under a share subscription agreement signed November 11, 2025, with completion targeted by December 31. This deepens their strategic partnership, positioning Unimech as the exclusive 10-year manufacturing partner for Dheya’s indigenous micro gas turbines (MGTs) like DET-60 and DET-500, targeting UAVs, loitering munitions, and distributed energy applications. From an Indian strategic perspective, the integrated design-to-manufacturing pipeline accelerates Atmanirbhar Bharat goals, slashing import dependence on critical propulsion tech amid rising defense needs against border threats, bolstering technological sovereignty and supply chain resilience.
