The Indian government, in recent years, has ramped up efforts towards 'Make in India' - an initiative geared towards facilitating global investment into India and strengthening local manufacturing and employment. An area of major focus for indigenisation has been India's defence sector, which also has obvious strategic objectives. In recent times, a number of sector-specific regulatory measures have been rolled out to promote the broader Make in India agenda within the defence sector (with the ultimate aim of achieving self-reliance in defence).
