Zen Technologies Limited has announced that it has received an order worth approximately ₹37 crore from the Ministry of Defence, Government of India, for the supply of advanced anti-drone systems equipped with Hard Kill capabilities. The order marks a significant step in the company’s continued partnership with India’s defence forces and reinforces its leadership in the Counter-Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) sector. The contract is expected to be executed within the next 12 months.
The company’s advanced anti-drone systems are designed to detect, track, and neutralise hostile unmanned aerial threats through a combination of sensor fusion, electronic warfare, and kinetic response technologies. The Hard Kill capability enables the physical destruction of enemy drones, providing one of the most effective counter-drone solutions globally. These systems have become increasingly vital in addressing the rising threat of drones, particularly across border regions and sensitive defence installations.
Commenting on the development, Zen Technologies Chairman and Managing Director, Ashok Atluri, expressed gratitude for the Ministry of Defence’s continued trust in the company’s indigenous technologies. He stated that the order reaffirms the Indian Armed Forces’ confidence in home-grown solutions and underscores the importance of deploying advanced counter-drone systems amid growing aerial threats. He added that Zen Technologies remains committed to advancing India’s defence self-reliance and modernisation goals.
