Indian Defense Electronics Firms Propel Export Growth

India’s defense electronics exporters are reporting a flurry of overseas wins in 2025 amid rising global demand and a push for indigenized, network‑centric systems. Public sector major Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) highlighted growing export momentum alongside a 21 August 2025 MoU with Centum Electronics to co-develop electronic warfare, radar, and secure communications for allied markets, aiming at international programs beyond India’s services pipeline. Private firms notched material export orders: Apollo Micro Systems disclosed its first export contract on May 27, 2025, valued at about $13.36 million (₹113.81 crore) for an avionics system spanning civil and military applications, marking a step-up in its global footprint. DCX Systems announced on January 5, 2025 an export order worth ₹483 crore from Israel’s Elta Systems for CIWS module assemblies, adding to June 17, 2025 overseas purchase orders from Israeli clients across cable and wire harness assemblies. Paras Defence broadened its advanced electronics positioning with an August 24, 2025 contract from BEL for signal and data processing and multi-sensor fusion systems that support export-ready air-defense architectures. Avantel, Cyient DLM, and Centum signaled expanding export pipelines and collaborations tied to aerospace and defense electronics manufacturing and design, with firms citing stronger order books through mid‑2025 as global primes diversify supply chains and source Indian subsystems for radar, EW, communications, and avionics.
