This partnership provides a structured pathway for Brahmastra to engage with the Saudi defence market while reinforcing India’s indigenous defence manufacturing capabilities. On the signing of the partnership agreement, director, Brahmastra Explosives and Ammunition Private Limited, Karan Singh Wilkhoo said, “The Saudi market represents an important strategic opportunity for Brahmastra. This partnership allows us to combine our indigenous defence manufacturing capabilities with strong local expertise, enabling us to build a meaningful presence in the Kingdom while reinforcing India’s role as a reliable global defence manufacturing partner. Our focus remains on strengthening capabilities, expanding our international footprint responsibly, and contributing to the long-term defence objectives of both India and our partners.”
The agreement reflects a shared commitment to work together within a structured and collaborative framework to support future opportunities, strengthen engagement with key stakeholders, and deliver defence solutions responsibly and efficiently within the Saudi defence ecosystem, while contributing to long-term Indo-Saudi defence cooperation.
