Astra Microwave Products rose 2.30 per cent to Rs 971 after securing a defence order worth Rs 1.35 billion from the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) for upgrading a ground-based radar system.

In its financial results for Q4 FY25, Astra Microwave reported a consolidated net profit of Rs 734.9 million, marking a 35.1 per cent increase over the same quarter last year. Revenue from operations rose 15.2 per cent year-on-year to Rs 4.08 billion.
