India Signs ₹661.50 Crore BrahMos Systems Deal for Navy Ships
India’s Ministry of Defence has signed a contract worth ₹661.50 crore with BrahMos Aerospace.
The company will provide fire control systems and launchers for Indian Navy ships.
These parts help ships use the BrahMos weapon system, but this contract does not buy the missiles themselves.
At least 68% of the project’s content must be made or developed in India.
The ministry says Indian businesses, including smaller companies, may take part.
It also expects the project to support jobs over three years.
The government says the deal will help strengthen the Navy’s ability to carry out maritime strikes.
It is also part of a wider effort to make more advanced defence technology in India.
The Ministry of Defence signed a ₹661.50 crore contract with BrahMos Aerospace for fire control systems and launchers for Indian Navy ships.
The contract was signed on October 6 in New Delhi under the Buy (Indian-IDDM) category.
The project requires at least 68% indigenous content and is expected to involve Indian industries, including MSMEs.
The ministry expects the project to generate employment over three years and support indigenisation of defence technology.
The deal covers fire control systems and launchers, not the missiles themselves, and is intended to strengthen maritime strike capabilities.
