Why in the news?<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Ministry of Defence (MoD) has notified a fifth positive indigenisation list (PIL) consisting of 346 defence items. This initiative aims to boost Aatmanirbharta (self-reliance) in defence production and reduce imports by Defence Public Sector Undertakings (DPSUs).<\/p>\n

About the initiative<\/h2>\n

i) Objective of the initiative:<\/strong> To ensure that these 346 items are procured exclusively from the Indian industry after specified timelines, as indicated on the MoD\u2019s Srijan portal.<\/p>\n

ii) Srijan Portal:<\/strong> It has been launched in 2020. The portal provides a platform for DPSUs and service headquarters (SHQs) to offer defence items for indigenisation to private industries, including MSMEs and startups.<\/p>\n

iii) Benefits for the Domestic Defence Industry: \u00a0<\/strong>The PIL offers assurance to the domestic defence industry, encouraging investment in the development of defence products by reducing the risk of the MoD importing these items from the global market.<\/p>\n

iv) Key Items for Indigenisation:<\/strong> The items include strategically important line replacement units (LRUs), systems, sub-systems, assemblies, sub-assemblies, spares, components, and raw materials. The import substitution value of these items is worth Rs 1,048 crore.<\/p>\n

Involvement of DPSUs<\/h2>\n

i) The DPSUs involved in the fifth PIL are Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL), Bharat Dynamics Ltd (BDL), Bharat Earth Movers Ltd (BEML), India Optel Ltd (IOL), Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd (MDL), Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers Ltd (GRSE), and Hindustan Shipyard Ltd (HSL).<\/p>\n

ii) These DPSUs have begun issuing expressions of interest (EoIs) and requests for proposals (RFPs) on their respective websites.<\/p>\n
