TheTime is money and only way to make more money is to save time. Urban population spends on an average 3 hours per day in traffic which makes 1100 hours per year on roads. This means every year 45 days people spend on roads.

People want to buy this time back. Hence, EVTOL are going to rule the market in next decade.

The ability to navigate congestion on roads can mean the difference between life and death in emergency medical transport. However, In business, it can mean the difference between making a deal and losing out on an opportunity. In that regard, vertiport, helipad and heliport infrastructure has become a critical part of many city’s transportation networks where an emphasis has been placed on improving the rapid transport of passengers, products or essential services.

Vertiports are the new buzz word across the world. Many manufacturers across the world have started manufacturing personal drones or two seater EVTOL for rapid transportation within a city. Atom Aviation is highly experienced in developing various helipads across the country. Atom is committed to develop vertiports across the world as per FAA, EASA and DGCA guidelines.


Atom’s area of expertise

  • Aerospace
  • Airports
  • Vertiports
  • High-rise developments
  • Ports & marine
  • Off-shore oil and gas


Planning & advisory

Atom provides a full array of heliport and vertiport consulting and engineering services that benefit from a global reach in our planning and aviation advisory expertise. We can assist in the entire project lifecycle, from the identification of initial facility needs, site selection and function planning, through to the completion of detailed design development and project integration.


Design & engineering

A well-planned facility is only as good as the follow-through in design and construction. Atom has the capability to provide a well-thought-out design that incorporates lessons learned with industry best practice. Our engineering staff, working alongside in-house heliport and vertiport experts, are experienced in international heliport design standards and offer a full range of planning, design and engineering services applicable to surface-level, raised (mounted) and elevated (rooftop) heliports.


Construction & project management

Atom has staff who are widely experienced in heliport and vertiport construction management and project management services. Our staff have overseen the implementation of design on surface-level, raised and roof-top heliports and vertiports, prefabricated and traditional design-bid-build projects, and have worked on multiple projects on integration with new construction.

Operational readiness & facility activation

Once a new facility has been constructed, validation that the facility meets the project specifications is an important step to ensuring that the facility will be able to operate as anticipated. Atom’s heliport and vertiport experts have the knowledge and experience to evaluate in-situ physical construction for compliance with design specifications.


Certification & compliance

Atom’s team of heliport and vertiport experts can assist in the evaluation existing or new facilities for compliance with industry standards and recommended practices.


Operations support & technical advisory

In addition to the comprehensive list of consulting services that Atom provides for heliports and vertiports, Atom also offers operational support in extension of staff arrangements on a case-by-case basis, as well as delivery of heliport and technical advisory.

Operational Concepts for Advanced Air Mobility in India report explores how advanced air mobility (AAM) can reshape India’s urban and regional transport landscape.

Atom Aviation works in various key areas, including airspace management, infrastructure development and regulatory needs to support a phased AAM roll-out nationwide. Emphasizing economic impacts, AAM offers solutions to urban congestion, enhances access to remote areas, and creates new market opportunities – ultimately supporting India’s development goals.

DGCA has constituted six working groups to develop
requirements and guidance for advanced air mobility. These working groups are focusing on various
aspects such as:

a) Vertiports;
b) Type Certification of vertical take-off and landing capable aircraft (VCA);
c) Crew licensing;
d) Air operator permits;
e) UAS traffic management (UTM); and
f) Maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO)

So far, following circulars/guidance materials have been issued are available on DGCA
website https://www.dgca.gov.in / under “Regulation & Guidance” Tab for public:
a) ADAC 01 of 2024: Guidance material on ‘Design, Operation and Authorization of
Vertiports issued on 5 September 2024;
b) AEAC 01 of 2024: Guidance material on Type Certification of Vertical Take-off and
Landing capable aircraft (VCA) issued on 11 September 2024; and
c) FCL 01 of 2025: Guidance material for training and endorsement of VTOL capable
aircraft (VCA) rating issued on 30 April 2025.

India’s proposed strategy to support the growth of Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) will
include designating dedicated corridors for Vertical Capability Aircraft (VCAs) to segregate them from
conventional air traffic, conducting specialized training sessions for the Air Traffic Management (ATM)
community to build operational capacity in conventional airspace, and prioritizing dynamic airspace
allocation to enable rapid response capabilities. In parallel, coordination with State Governments will be
undertaken to build, operate, and integrate a national Vertiports network with multimodal transport hubs.
Centres of Excellence will be established to promote innovation and research, while stakeholder
engagement efforts will include targeted awareness campaigns. To further strengthen domestic
capabilities, India will also incentivize indigenous VCA manufacturing through Production Linked
Incentive (PLI) schemes.
