L&T, a construction giant with a long history, came into the defence business only at the turn of the 21st century, thanks to Dr APJ Abdul Kalam who roped in companies like the Tatas and L&T to build some parts in the Integrated Guided Missile Programme in the 1980s.

At the beginning of this century, the government opened up licensed defence manufacturing for Indian companies. Then L&T decided to obtain defence licenses. Since then, it has been a thrilling ride, a bit of a roller coaster, says Arun T. Ramchandani, head of L&T Defence in this chat with Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale in the latest episode of On the Shop Floor.

Looking back, he says because L&T started from a core R&D base it has been able to build at least 250 products for the armed forces. About 35 of them are in serial production today. Gradually the company also got into warship construction and has made a name for itself in designing and building submarines too. Watch the full episode shot at L&T's Talegaon complex.

    “ On the Shop Floor” show has been an eye opener for me. Glad to see the development of defence ecosystem in India and playing an important role in attaining self reliance. Contribution of private players like L&T is commendable. Keep up the good work.

    Another excellent episode, Mr. Gokhale. It is nice to know that Mr. Ramchandani is from IIT Delhi. Usually the IITians of that time would go abroad.
  • @rautsaurabh9
    This is a brilliant effort by Bharat Shakti. I know the view count is not much but I would urge you to keep up the good work. Only request, if possible can you showcase MSMEs too? It'll prove and motivate fence sitters like me that, folks with limited means can make something in India. Either ways great effort and all the best with what you do, always a fan of Nitin sir's work.

    L&T defense should bring IPO so that the general people can participate in this great story. Also hats off to all IITans who instead of going abroad used their talents in serving and strengthening their nation..
