Scandron Receives DGCA Approval, Expands Market Reach

- Advertisement -

Scandron Private Limited’s receives DGCA approval for its agriculture drone model, aiming to expand its business and revolutionise the Indian agriculture sector with advanced drone solutions.

Drone startup Scandron, a subsidiary of Magellanic Cloud, has received approval from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for its agricultural drone model SNDAG010QX8. This approval will enable Scandron to roll out the drone and expand its market reach with a target to sell at least 1,000 to 2,000 drones in the upcoming year. Scandron will also be able to create new revenue streams and set the stage for the company’s entry into the drone manufacturing space. 

Securing the DGCA-type approval is also expected to help the company streamline its agritech offerings and target them effectively toward farmers. The move will also help it partner with lead fertiliser companies (LFCs) to facilitate the delivery of drones to self-help groups (SHGs) under the Centre’s ‘Drone Didi’ scheme.

By reducing dependency on foreign technology and components, Magellanic Cloud, through Scandron Private Limited, is committed to supporting the Government’s Make in India initiative. This move not only ensures a steady supply of high-quality drones tailored for Indian farmers but also fosters self-reliance in critical technology sectors.

The SNDAG010QX8 drone is certified under Type Certificate No. T0724000001Z is set to significantly enhance the efficiency of spraying fertilisers and pesticides, crop surveillance, field monitoring, and livestock management. With this certification, Scandron Private Limited is poised to deliver innovative solutions that support sustainable farming practices and improve crop yields.
