low · analyst_questionNotable Quotes
We are bullish on air space and defense and production which we start in the third quarter. We have 8 months order in hand and two years all with us.
Our main aim is to be ahead of the curve. Value addition is our main motive.
Demand is outstripping the supply. There is clearly a gap of this arms and ammunition particularly 155 mm. I see no dearth of demand in next four five years.
