Media Release - Reliance Industries and Rolls-Royce announce strategic intent to partner and develop India's indigenous combat engine for the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programme
London / Mumbai, 14thAugust 2026: Reliance Industries Limited (Reliance) and Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) today announced their strategic intent to partner and offer capabilities for the design, development, manufacturing and delivery of a sovereign indigenous combat engine for Indiaās Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) programme.
As part of the partnership, Reliance and Rolls-Royce will explore the formation of a dedicated Aerospace Gas Turbine Complex that will be a centre of excellence for power and propulsion technology in India.
The partnership will offer a compelling proposition for joint development of the AMCA engine in India, bringing together world-leading technology and industrial execution capabilities. This marks a step towards realising the vision set out by the Honāble Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi, for Indiaās defence ecosystem to deliver an indigenous engine to power the countryās fighter jet programme.
Statement from Sh Anant Ambani, Executive Director, Reliance Industries Limited: "Indiaās strategic autonomy requires sovereign capability in critical technologies. Our intent with Rolls-Royce is to combine their world-leading expertise in advanced propulsion with Relianceās technology, manufacturing, scale and execution capabilities to build an indigenous aero-engine ecosystem in India. Together, we aim to build an enduring national capability that can make India self-reliant and, over time, globally competitive in advanced propulsion technologies. This is our contribution to the Honāble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modiās vision of an Atmanirbhar Viksit Bharat."
Statement from Tufan ErginbilgiƧ, CEO, Rolls-Royce plc: "I welcome the opportunity to join forces with Reliance Industries, bringing together our century-long heritage in advanced engineering and proven engine expertise with their homegrown leadership in Indian industry. Together, with our existing partnerships and capabilities in India, this marks a major milestone towards building a robust, self-reliant aerospace ecosystem in the country."
By combining Rolls-Royceās global leadership in engines with the established industrial strengths of Reliance, the Aero Gas Turbine Complex will build sovereign, end-to-end Indian capability across design, development, manufacturing, testing, production and through-life support. This will also unlock opportunities to explore wider collaborations across defence, civil aerospace, and new power and propulsion systems.
The alliance will support Indiaās āAtmanirbhar Bharatā vision for technology indigenisation and help position the country as a global leader in advanced propulsion capabilities.

They should also do this in all of Janakpuri in Delhi, it's too congested even for small ambulances to pass through those roads
Varanasi: Dalmandi redevelopment underway for smoother Kashi Vishwanath Dham access
š¹ 650 m road widened from 3ā4 m to 17.4 m for easier four-wheeler entry
š¹ Eases congestion at Godowlia, Maidagin & Nai Sadak
š¹ Dalmandi to be developed as hub for Banarasi sarees, ODOP & GI products
š¹ Underground utilities ā electricity, sewer, water & gas pipelines
š¹ 3.2 m footpaths on both sides with modern street lighting
All that is fine but at least learn how to make good footpaths, the ones in RS Ward are a nightmare to walk on, with all sorts of obstructions @mybmcWardRS
Should we travel in bullock-carts then?
He's a living example of competent babudom, we will be "vishwaguru" if all our babus start working like him
Vicious serpents like you should stay away from Indian political discourse, you have got nothing to do with it
Do you think tunnels are made of vibranium or smth? Landslides can disrupt anything and everything in its way
Ah yes! Trains before 2014 were such a pleasure to ride because it was fun seeing people travel on top of the coaches, poop falling on tracks because of no bio-toilet and filthy coaches
Only someone who doesn't travel by trains can say so.
Indian trains, which used to be such a pleasure to ride till 2014, have themselves become disused, dusty, broken relics of the past. All attention on Vande Bharats.
And most Indian stations: another relic.
Indian Railways is another BSNL story. Being deliberately ruined, so later can be given to cronies, and for pittance.
No one should be copying Tesla because their interior design is the worst, no one wants an iPad to control every single function of the car, people would rather have buttons for everything, don't act like those tech bros that want screens everywhere
Field Marshal ICE retweeted
Ethanol blending in petrol is not some Indian experiment. It is a scientifically proven global standard followed by the major economies for decades.
It is not āpoisonā for your car engine nor is it adulteration.
It is smart energy policy. In FY 2025-26 alone, India saved nearly ā¹1.85 lakh crore in foreign exchange, replaced 302 lakh metric tonnes of crude oil imports, and channelled more than ā¹1.58 lakh crore in the agriculture economy.
These are not estimates. These are hard numbers.
Government is not forcing ethanol-blended in to your carās throttle. 100 octane petrol (ethanol-free, high-performance) already exists and is sold by public sector oil companies.
No one is stopping anyone from buying it.
The real problem is this: 100 octane petrol is missing from the overwhelming majority of petrol pumps across the country. That is why the debate feels forced.
If the government ensures that every single petrol pump in India stocks both E20 blended petrol and 100 octane petrol side by side, the entire manufactured controversy around āflex fuelā and āno choiceā collapses overnight. Consumers will then genuinely exercise their freedom, some will pick blended fuel for the national interest and lower effective cost, others will pick 100 octane for whatever personal reason they have. No coercion. Pure choice.
The solution is not to scrap a policy that has already saved the country nearly two lakh crore rupees. The solution is to give people real options at every pump.
For those, agitating against this policy. Stop the selective outrage. Demand availability 100 octane petrol.

This might be my quadrillionth time requesting this but,
Please bring Mazda Motor Corporation, Hiroshima's Passenger division to India with favourable policiesš
These cars will disrupt the market and give all other manufacturers a run for their money
We never had this many expressways and since quality control is not strict, such things happen, China is still famous for tofu dreg construction as a result of which many of their expressways and bridges collapse but no one has anything to say about it
We have never seen such a corrupt government in the history of India.
After just one spell of rain, the Dehradun Expressway, built at a cost of ā¹12,000 crore and inaugurated by @narendramodi, has developed large potholes in the middle.
Almost every new infrastructure project under the Modi government is collapsing within months, yet the Godi media will say there is no corruption.
The newly built BMC roads and sewer lines are doing their job very well, there is not a single puddle on the road and it looks aesthetic with the marking but the footpaths are absolutely pathetic
"Simple Upgrades, Maximum Tamasha" is what sums this up, most cars haven't even had an injector, fuel line or spark plug replacement after all these years this is your chance to make your engine ethanol compatible and replace your carbon infested parts
