The Hindustan Aeronautics HA-31 Basant is an agricultural monoplane of the 1970s built by Hindustan Aeronautics. Design began in 1968 as the HAL-31 Mk 1, with the cockpit directly over the wing leading edge, and it was redesigned as the HA-31 Mk II Basant, which first flew on 30 March 1972. It is a conventional braced low-wing monoplane with fixed tailwheel landing gear and a 400 hp Avco Lycoming IO-720 piston engine, and a raised cockpit gave the pilot a good all-round view during spraying work.
