This remarkable surge marks a significant milestone in India\u2019s journey towards becoming a global player in the defence sector.<\/p>\n<p>The increase in defence exports is a result of strong performances from both the <strong>Defence Public Sector Undertakings (DPSUs)<\/strong> and the <strong>private sector<\/strong>. DPSUs saw an impressive <strong>42.85% growth<\/strong>, contributing <strong>Rs 8,389 crore<\/strong> to the total export figure. Meanwhile, the <strong>private sector<\/strong> also contributed significantly with <strong>Rs 15,233 crore<\/strong>, maintaining its leadership role in India&#8217;s defence export sector. In FY 2023-24, the corresponding figures were <strong>Rs 5,874 crore<\/strong> from DPSUs and <strong>Rs 15,209 crore<\/strong> from the private sector.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement on social media platform X, Defence Minister<strong>\u00a0Rajnath Singh<\/strong> congratulated all stakeholders for the achievement and highlighted India\u2019s growing global prominence in defence exports. He further stated, <em>\u201cUnder the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India is marching towards the ambitious goal of achieving Rs 50,000 crore in defence exports by 2029.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The figures underscore India\u2019s transformation from a nation largely dependent on defence imports to one that is increasingly self-reliant and capable of producing and exporting a wide range of defence products. These exports include ammunition, arms, sub-systems, systems, and parts\/components, with Indian defence products being delivered to around <strong>80 countries<\/strong> during the FY 2024-25.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Department of Defence Production<\/strong> has played a key role in facilitating this growth, with a dedicated portal for the application and processing of export authorisation requests. In FY 2024-25, <strong>1,762 Export Authorisations<\/strong> were issued, compared to <strong>1,507<\/strong> in the previous year, marking a <strong>16.92% growth<\/strong>. The number of exporters also rose by <strong>17.4%<\/strong> during the same period, indicating a wider participation of Indian companies in the global defence market.<\/p>\n<p>To support this growth, the Indian government has implemented a series of <strong>policy reforms<\/strong> to boost the defence industry. These include the <strong>simplification of industrial licensing procedures<\/strong>, the <strong>removal of parts and components from the licensing regime<\/strong>, and the extension of the validity period for licenses. Additionally, the <strong>Standard Operating Procedures (SOP)<\/strong> for the grant of export authorisation have been streamlined, with further provisions introduced to stimulate defence exports.<\/p>\n<p>India\u2019s defence sector is now positioned as a global supplier of cutting-edge military technologies, and with continued policy support, the country is poised to meet its ambitious goal of <strong>Rs 50,000 crore in defence exports<\/strong> by 2029, making it a key player on the world stage.<\/p>\n<p>As India continues to enhance its <strong>self-reliance<\/strong> and <strong>indigenous production capabilities<\/strong>, the growth in defence exports will be crucial not only for national security but also for the country\u2019s economic strength and international influence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India\u2019s Defence Exports Hit Record High of Rs 23,622 Crore in FY 2024-25, Setting Sights on Rs 50,000 Crore by 2029.
