Lastly, It will focus on manufacturing, producing, and selling drones globally, involving third-party manufacturing, procurement of components and flight trials.

It's worth noting that Delhivery acquired US-based Transition Robotics in 2022. California-based Transition was focused on developing unmanned aerial system platforms, and with the acquisition, all its intellectual property registered in the US was assigned to Delhivery.
