Boeing and RSB launched an India SAF Readiness Assessment covering 9 dimensions and scoring overall readiness at 52%. Feedstocks, production capacity and technology show potential, while policy, financing, demand and infrastructure require further development. The report describes India’s 1%/2027, 2%/2028 and 5%/2030 international-flight blending ambitions as indicative rather than binding. It does not establish that projected feedstock potential is certified supply or that the targets are enacted mandates.
