Adani Defence and Aerospace has announced plans to set up South Asia's largest private-sector missile ecosystem in Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh.

The ₹2,500 crore facility will integrate the entire missile manufacturing value chain from raw materials to mission-ready systems under one roof.

This is a first for India's private sector and is aimed at boosting indigenous defense production while creating thousands of jobs.

The foundation stone for the missile complex was laid by Adani Enterprises Director Jeet Adani in the presence of Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, Union Communications Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, state Energy Minister Pradyumna Singh Tomar and other senior government officials.

Adani called it a "landmark occasion" and emphasized that "this facility will bring raw materials and mission-ready missiles under one roof, a historic first outside the public sector."

It will also have facilities for composite propellant manufacturing as well as TNT and explosive-grade material production. This will further strengthen India's indigenous defense production capabilities.
