Shunya: The Air Taxi Revolution at Invest Karnataka 2025 Sarla Aviation's air taxi prototype, 'Shunya', emerges as the star at the Invest Karnataka-2025 summit despite facing skepticism. Co-founder Dinesh reports high interest, pending regulatory approval, and plans for expansion. The air taxi promises rapid urban transport and is showcased at both Invest Karnataka and Aero India events. Sarla Aviation's futuristic air taxi prototype, 'Shunya', has captured significant attention at the Invest Karnataka-2025 summit, even amid the many aircraft displayed at the event. Attendees are eager for selfies and more information, signaling strong public interest. Co-founder Dinesh was overwhelmed by the questions from curious visitors, leading to a sore throat as he discussed the promising technology. Despite its high profile, the air taxi awaits regulatory approval from the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). A process expected to take up to 18 months, after which they hope to expand their two-aircraft fleet to six by year-end. At the summit, the air taxi is a static exhibit, while in the parallel Aero India 2025 show at Yelahanka, it demonstrates its capabilities. Promising faster transport within urban settings, the air taxi is optimized for short journeys, with the potential to transform city travel dramatically.
