AeroDef India: Driving Growth in Aerospace and Defense Manufacturing
India's aerospace and defense sector is on the cusp of remarkable growth, propelled by a strategic focus on indigenous manufacturing. This transformation is opening up significant opportunities for private sector firms and MSMEs, particularly in the supply of raw materials, components, assemblies, and subassemblies. The objective is clear: to fortify the local supply chain and minimize dependency on imports, thereby advancing the nation's vision of self-reliance in defense production.
The Union Defence Budget for 2024-25 stands at ₹621,941 crore (approximately USD 74.3 billion), reflecting a 4.78% increase over the previous year. This substantial allocation underscores India's commitment to modernizing its armed forces while championing domestic defense production under the Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative.
Join the movement at AeroDef India 2026 and be part of the nation's journey toward innovation, self-reliance, and global leadership in defense manufacturing.
Delhi has been chosen as the venue for the AeroDef India Manufacturing Expo due to its significance as a central hub for the aerospace and defence sectors. As the headquarters of the Indian defence forces, Delhi plays a critical role in key decision-making processes concerning manufacturing, acquisitions, and upgrades in these domains. The region is home to numerous SMEs and major defence manufacturers, including DPSUs, OFBs, and both domestic and international companies, all of which have a strong presence in northern India.
