The Estmana Ambajhari weaponry is under Yil regardless of seven other units.

A meeting has been held with things with other round talks scheduled immediately, the source said.
Talks have begun with other private aeronautics companies too, said source.
Yil has the capacity to make parts for aircraft and internal spare parts, said source.

It also targets a greater order than RS450 Crore, also to make the US train, said source.
Learn, the company also targets the business of Earthmoving producers whose equipment is deployed in the infrastructure sector.
Negotiations are on a sophisticated stage with the main Earthmover equipment manufacturer to make wheels tracked for equipment.
