France: Amid CBI probing Airbus' parent EADS over the inordinate delay in setting up an MRO facility in India, its third largest market with over 70 per cent market share, the aircraft-maker has said the facility will come up in a very short while.
"The delay in setting up the MRO or Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul facility was due to our inability to find a partner. But I am telling you, we are very serious about this and the work on the proposed facility will begin in a very, very short time," Airbus executive VP for sales and marketing Kiran Rao told PTI at the Airbus headquarters here.
He added, "I just got some communication that we have got a private partner and we are soon to start work on the MRO facility. Accordingly, we have identified the location and we are going to start work very soon. We have to do it. It is a question of just beginning the work."
When pressed for a time-frame and the location, Rao, who earlier headed the India operations, said, "I cannot give the details as it is very confidential. All I can say is that it is on. And it is in the central part of the country. It is coming and in a very, very short time".
