India's defence sector is undergoing structural transformation with the government mandating 75% domestic procurement and targeting defence exports of $5 billion by 2025. The defence budget at ₹6.2 lakh crore (FY25) provides multi-year demand visibility. Key themes: fighter aircraft (Tejas), submarines (Project 75), naval frigates, missile systems, and electronic warfare.
Private sector participation has increased dramatically with companies like BEL, HAL, Mazagon Dock, and L&T Defence winning large orders. Defence PSUs have order books of 3-5x revenue. Key metrics: order book, order inflow, execution rate, and EBITDA margins.
The sector trades at premium valuations (40-70x PE) due to scarcity and long-term growth visibility. Risks include execution delays and budgetary allocation changes.
