NEW DELHI: Brazilian aerospace major Embraer says it will increase sourcing from India and even have a final assembly line here if it gets a firm order for 200 aircraft from Indian customers.As of now, only India’s biggest regional airline, Star Air, has Embraer aircraft in its fleet. However, the firm is talking to multiple airlines, including Air India and IndiGo, apart from startups, for getting orders. It has established a fully owned Indian subsidiary that will have a dedicated sourcing unit to scout for opportunities in IT, software and engineering.Embraer has nearly 50 planes across 11 aircraft types operating in the country.
