The "Make in India" concept in the defence sector has the potential to help India meet 70% of its defence needs in a few years. Today, domestic production meets only 30% of its needs. "This could be achieved by making India the hub of MRO business by investing in research and technology processes and by focusing on the development of skills in 70-plus trades relating to the aerospace industry," said R K Tyagi, Chairman, HAL, at the Foundation Day Celebrations of the Council of Scientific and Industrial (CSIR) here on Sept 30.
