Defence stocks represent companies specialising in military equipment manufacturing, weapons systems development, aerospace components production, and defence-related services. India's defence manufacturing sector has evolved significantly, shaped by increased capital expenditure, progressive policy reforms, and the government's vision to establish India as a global defence manufacturing hub.
The sector encompasses various segments including aerospace, land systems, naval vessels, electronics, and ammunition manufacturing. Both public and private sector companies contribute to India's defence capabilities, with increasing participation from private players strengthening the competitive dynamics.
