In a recent interview with CNBC-TV18, Amit Mahajan of Paras Defence clarified that the company's exposure to Israel is primarily for technology transfers and not direct exports. He added that while minor delays of 1–2 weeks are expected in tech transfer from Israeli firms, there is no anticipated supply chain disruption that would impact component imports. The company's total export exposure to Israel stands at only 5 per cent. Shares of Paras Defence had closed 0.24% lower at Rs 1,692.20 on Thursday.

Analysts at InCred Equities highlighted government initiatives such as the Technology Development Fund, which has sanctioned 78 projects worth Rs 333 crore, and DRDO's support for the industry through free patent access and technology transfers. For FY26BE, the MoD has allocated Rs 6.81 trillion, up 6.3 per cent YoY.
