The Hindustan Ardhra () was a two-seat training glider developed in India in the late 1970s by the Civil Aviation Department under the designation ATS-1 Ardhra. Featuring a traditional wooden construction, the aircraft was manufactured by Hindustan Aeronautics after the Indian Air Force placed an order for fifty units in the early 1980s. It received certification for use by trainee pilots, playing a role in flight instruction programs.
