Reliance Defence secures Rs 600 crore export order from German firm Rheinmetall
This high-value order marks one of the largest exports in India's high-tech ammunition space and highlights the deepening strategic partnership between Reliance Defence and Rheinmetall. The deal strengthens Reliance Defence's global footprint, particularly in Europe, and reinforces India's push for indigenous defence production under the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' and 'Make in India' initiatives.
The agreement also supports Reliance Defence's ambition to become one of India's top three defence exporters. It will play a pivotal role in boosting the country's private defence manufacturing capabilities.
To support this growing export momentum, the company is developing the Dhirubhai Ambani Defence City (DADC) in Watad, Ratnagiri, Maharashtra. This greenfield project will be the largest of its kind by a private player in India, featuring integrated manufacturing facilities for ammunition, explosives, and small arms.
The DADC is set to become a major hub for defence innovation, production, and global supply, driving export-led growth for India's private defence sector.
