The Indian Army has signed a ₹293 crore contract with Pune-based defence manufacturer NIBE Ltd., in collaboration with Israeli defence major Elbit Systems, for the supply of the advanced long-range rocket launcher system, ‘Suryastra’, under emergency procurement powers.
The system boasts strike capabilities of 150 km and 300 km, significantly enhancing the Army’s deep-strike artillery firepower and operational reach.
NIBE Ltd. confirmed the development in a letter to the Bombay Stock Exchange and National Stock Exchange on Friday. The contract includes the manufacturing and supply of ground equipment, accessories, ESP, and ammunition for the universal rocket launcher system, which can integrate multiple rocket types for precision surface-to-surface strikes.
Suryastra, India’s first Made-in-India universal multicalibre rocket launcher, is capable of engaging multiple targets simultaneously and has demonstrated a circular error probable (CEP) of less than five metres during trials.
In July 2025, NIBE Ltd. signed a Technology Collaboration Agreement (TCA) with Elbit Systems to produce the advanced rocket launcher domestically. This marks the first time a high-precision system with a 300 km strike range is being manufactured in India.
The acquisition falls under provisions of the Defence Acquisition Council, which allow emergency procurement until January 15, enabling the defence forces to procure weapons systems worth up to ₹300 crore without additional clearances. The deal strengthens India’s indigenous defence production capabilities and enhances battlefield readiness.
