Dynalog India plans ₹70-crore capex 

India’s military-industrial ecosystem; invisible backbone

Dynalog India, an MSME into defence electronics and industrial automation, has announced plans to invest ₹70 crore to set up a new manufacturing base in Pune and to enhance design capabilities to leverage India’s push for indigenous technology. 

“We have plans to invest ₹70 crore in a 4–5 acres integrated facility in Pune,” said Akshay Adhalrao, Managing Director, Dynalog India Ltd.

This will be the company’s second base in Pune. To match the scale expectations of large defence buyers, Dynalog had moved core operations to a 35,000-square-foot facility in Pune while retaining its Mumbai base. 

“From missile subsystems and naval torpedo control systems to reliable computing and connectivity products for power automation, we are positioning ourselves as a scaled, homegrown alternative to foreign suppliers and PSU-dominated defence programmes,” he said.

For decades, Dynalog has been operating as part of the invisible backbone of India’s military-industrial ecosystem and even contributed to the BrahMos and Akash missile programmes and recently delivered indigenous torpedo fire-control systems that replaced imported hardware after rigorous third-party certification.

Its latest flagship success is an automated trenching and mine-laying system for border defence, developed with a DRDO lab from a sketchy prototype in 2014 to a major production order in 2024, the MD said.
