Management pointed to a robust pipeline and said FY27 execution is clearly visible after delays in order conversion during FY26. It also highlighted a three decade focus on research and development, with over two hundred patent applications and more than one thousand training systems shipped worldwide.

The company noted policy tailwinds from the draft Defence Acquisition Procedure 2026 and a broader push towards Buy Indian IDDM that should support domestic demand. It said global events have emphasised the strategic importance of layered counter-UAS systems and combat-ready forces, areas where it has built deep capability. With a stronger forward order book, a diversified earnings base and an expanded product portfolio the firm signalled it enters FY27 better positioned.
