We are allocating capital for suo-moto development of critical technologies for CUAS and EW systems. In the last six months, we have strengthened Dexcel's design and manufacturing capabilities and are now gearing up to execute large-scale indigenisation and upgrade programs,' said Rohan Gala, co-founder and CEO of Sanlayan. The company plans to increase its engineering headcount fivefold in the next six months. The startup is actively hiring domain experts, R&D scientists, retired armed forces veterans, and senior leadership from both public sector undertakings and private defence giants. "What drew us to Sanlayan was their clear understanding of India's defenceelectronics landscape, and their hybrid strategy to solve it. This is not just a business opportunity; it's a national imperative. We're proud to back a team that's accelerating indigenous capability and contributing meaningfully to India's national security ,' said Ashish Kacholia.
