Forging the shield: How SMPP is leading India’s defence revolution

With its roots in deep engineering and a clear mission to strengthen India’s self-reliance in defence, SMPP’s journey is a testament to the spirit of Atmanirbhar Bharat

In the rugged terrains of Kashmir, along the high-altitude borders of Ladakh, and across the dense forests of central India, Indian soldiers face grave risks every day. Amidst these dangers, a silent yet robust layer of protection stands between life and death: state-of-the-art bulletproof gear. Behind much of this armour is one Indian company quietly revolutionising defence manufacturing—SMPP Ltd.

With its roots in deep engineering and a clear mission to strengthen India’s self-reliance in defence, SMPP’s journey is a testament to the spirit of Atmanirbhar Bharat. From being a pioneer in ballistic protection to venturing into drones and large-calibre ammunition, the company, led by its CEO Mr. Ashish Kansal, has carved a remarkable trajectory, now culminating in its latest win: the Emergency Procurement 5 (EP-5) order from the Ministry of Defence.
