DADC Project To Anchor Defence Manufacturing Ambitions

The Dhirubhai Ambani Defence City will be among South Asia’s largest private-sector defence manufacturing hubs. Spread across the Watad industrial area in Ratnagiri, the project aims to reinforce India’s ambitions under the ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ mission. The facility will supply medium and large calibre ammunition, including 200,000 artillery shells annually, 10,000 tons of explosives, and 2,000 tons of propellants.

This move follows Reliance Defence’s previous tie-ups with France’s Dassault Aviation and Thales Group. The deal with Rheinmetall allows for co-marketing of specific products and shared development initiatives, which are expected to boost exports and capacity utilisation.

Strategic Focus And Market Outlook

The collaboration will help Rheinmetall secure raw material access and strengthen its presence in India. For Reliance Defence, this partnership adds significant weight to its long-term strategy to position itself as a major global exporter. With robust production targets and international tie-ups, the company seeks to expand its footprint in global defence supply chains.

The push into ammunition and defence component manufacturing is expected to positively influence Reliance Defence share price over time, supported by growing international interest and the Indian government's policy push for indigenous defence manufacturing. The Ratnagiri facility is a central piece in that broader ambition.
