Asteria Aerospace’s A200 drone issued the first UIN in India by the DGCA

Asteria Aerospace’s A200 micro drone was issued the very first Unique Identification Number (UIN) in India, U0000001, by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). The UIN was issued after a digital registration of the drone on India’s Digital Sky platform. This brings certified and compliant drone operations in the country one step closer to reality under DGCA’s Civil Aviation Regulations for the use of drones in the civilian airspace.

Under these regulations, the DGCA formulated an all-digital process for the registration and operation of drones in India, supporting the No Permission, No Take-off (NPNT) policy to prevent unauthorized drone flights. As part of the regulations, every drone operator must obtain a UIN before being granted permission to fly the drone.
