Pune: The Mahratta Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Agriculture (MCCIA) has organised a webinar on ‘Defence Procurement Assistance’ on Friday (December 18).

For meeting modernisation needs of Defence, India will acquire equipment worth $250 billion by 2027, however, the current delivery capacity of the domestic defence sector is merely $75-80 billion annually, indicating a huge potential for indigenous industry.
India still remains the world’s second-largest arms importer with a near 14 percent of the global import share and defence exports at only 0.2 percent. With Make in India in Defence, the sector has opened up enormous opportunities for Indian companies and MSMEs, however it is crucial to understand the criticalities of the Defence Procurement Procedures.
Pune is strategically placed and is poised to become a Strategic Defence & Aerospace Hub with matured industry base, presence of large and medium scale industries and a well-established SME sector in and around Pune.
Keeping this in view, MCCIA is organizing a one day webinar for giving an overview of the latest Defence Procurement Procedures, Requirements, Opportunities and Challenges.
