The Indian Defense Innovation space is not building, it is already built. All we need to do is foster it further and see the results. I am proud to introduce the Defense and Aerospace Innovation Summit (DAIS) 2024, poised to be India's most holistic DefTech congregation. T-Hub is yet again doing what it's best known for - Bringing everyone together and orchestrating initiatives at Scale! While the honorable Defense Secretary of India is launching the initiative, we have other dignitaries from Government, Startups, Investors, Corporate and Academia coming and building it together. Join and witness the inflection point of the Indian Defense and Aerospace Innovation landscape yourself: https://lnkd.in/gdCSdpkv T-Hub Srinivas Rao Mahankali (MSR) Wg Cdr Anthony Anish (Retd) Sujit Jagirdar Drona Sreenivas (Indian Navy Veteran) Glossy Nayak Capt Roy Joseph #DefTech #DefenseInnovation #AerospaceInnovation #Defense

Aerospace & Defence IPOs The Indian #Aerospace & #Defence listed space is limited to approximately 20 companies. Some companies are developing a defence vertical although the present revenue from the segment is negligible. There are some big names who have mature defence verticals like Adani Defence and Aerospace , TATA Advanced Systems Limited , Kalyani Defence , L&T Defence, RELIANCE DEFENCE LIMITED. The #NIFTY India Defence #Index was launched in Jan 2022. The Index has 7 DPSUs and 6 Public Limited companies. After the initial listing of DPSUs in 2018, many companies have taken the IPO route. The sector has not disappointed the #investors. The average return of these companies has been 73%. Incidentally, all the DPSUs listed at a discount whereas other companies listed with bumper returns. The DPSUs have gained over a period of time and given average 55% returns. Other companies have given 98% returns with only two companies trading below their listing price, still much higher returns than their issue price. Did you invest in the IPOs? How has your experience been? How do you see the defence listed space evolving in the future? #india #startup #defencenews #defenceblog #defenceindustry #defencetechnology #defenceforces #defencecapability #aatmanirbharbharat #makeinindia #indianarmy #indianarmedforces #drdo #indianairforce #indiannavy #sensex #investments #sharemarket #trading Abhranil Chatterjee Harshit Kapadia vishal biraia
