Defence Production India

Staggering growth in India’s Defence Production

A giant leap has taken place in the indigenous defence production in the FY 2025-26 by staggering increase in the defence production from ₹ 1.54 lakh crore to ₹ 1.78 lakh crore, registering a net increase of 15.6% over the previous fiscal year.

With the record increase in the indigenous production a huge momentum has been achieved in India’s defence production and marching towards #AatmanirbharBharat.

Hon’ble Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh has lauded the efforts of Department of Defence Production and all stakeholders involved in the defence production of the country. Raksha Mantri has called for continued acceleration in the defence production sector with increased private sector participation and growing export capabilities.
