Misochain Technologies, a Bengaluru-based aerospace manufacturing company, has raised INR 180 million in its Series A funding round led by Capital A. The capital will be used to establish a manufacturing facility for flight-critical aerospace components, accelerate certification programmes, and scale engineering, testing, and maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) manufacturers and global aerospace customers.
The funding is intended to support the industrialisation and qualification of safety-critical subsystems used in aircraft flight management and control systems, where extended certification cycles and regulatory requirements influence supplier adoption.
Founded in 2019 by Rama Kandula and Murali Krishnan, both former Honeywell Aerospace engineers, Misochain Technologies initially operated as an on-demand manufacturing marketplace. The company later pivoted to focus on the indigenisation of flight-critical aircraft components for India’s defence and global aviation sectors, where such subsystems continue to be largely imported.
Misochain develops high-integrity components that feed directly into aircraft flight management and control systems. Its product portfolio includes air data probes, including pitot probes used for airspeed and altitude measurement, vibration isolation systems designed to protect sensitive onboard electronics and structures, as well as actuators and solenoid valves used in mechanical flight control applications. The company has also developed proprietary heating technology for its air data probes to enable operation in extreme flight environments.
The company follows a capital-efficient manufacturing model, outsourcing precision machining to qualified partners while retaining design, assembly, testing, certification, and intellectual property development in-house. This operating structure is intended to support production scale-up while maintaining control over quality assurance and regulatory compliance.
Rama Kandula, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Misochain Technologies, said the investment would support faster certification timelines, strengthen in-house engineering capabilities, and enable progress toward serial deployment of flight-critical subsystems across defence and aviation platforms.
Ankit Kedia, Founder and Lead Investor at Capital A, said aerospace manufacturing is characterised by long product lifecycles and stringent certification requirements, adding that Misochain’s progress in qualifying flight-critical systems positions it for sustained participation in India’s defence ecosystem and global aerospace supply chains.
Misochain is part of MaXcel, a hardware and industrial technology accelerator operated by Capital A and SanchiConnect.
Misochain Technologies is a Bengaluru-based company engaged in the design and development of flight-critical aircraft components for defence and global aviation platforms, with in-house capabilities spanning engineering, testing, certification, and intellectual property ownership.
