Draft Defence Production and Export Promotion Policy (DPEPP 2020)
Self-reliance in defence has been the cornerstone of India’s defence production policy. The recent call for “ATMA NIRBHAR BHARAT” has provided further impetus to realise the goal of self-reliance. Over the years, transparent and streamlined Procurement Procedures, Production Policies and ‘Make in India’ initiatives have provided a significant stimulus to demand indigenous products. The Indian Defence industry, primarily catering to the needs of the armed forces, has evolved with diversified product mix and market. Propelled by the recent successes in exports, India is set to realize its potential as an emerging defence manufacturing hub.
Over the years, the Department of Defence Production (DDP), Ministry of Defence, Government of India has facilitated the establishment of wide-ranging production facilities of various defence equipment through Ordnance Factories and Defence Public Sector Undertakings (DPSUs) and, from the year 2001, through licensed private sector companies. This has resulted in the development of a diverse range of products such as arms and ammunition, tanks, armoured vehicles, heavy vehicles, fighter aircraft and helicopters, warships, submarines, missiles, ammunition, electronic equipment, earth moving equipment, special alloys and special purpose steels.
