Promoters sold 13,34,208 shares while FIIs bought 8,21,215 shares & DIIs bought 2,50,252 shares: Defence company Bags Rs 22 Crore Export High-End Counter-UAS Technology to France
The stock gave multibagger returns of over 105 per cent from its 52-week low of Rs 802 per share.
Paras Anti-Drone Technologies Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Paras Defence and Space Technologies Ltd, has announced a significant deal to supply up to 30 units of its CHIMERA 200 system, an advanced man-portable radio frequency detection and neutralisation device, to CERBAIR, a leading European counter-UAV company based in France. This agreement, valued at approximately Rs 22 crore (EUR 2.2 million), marks a major step in bolstering India's global standing in defence manufacturing and aligns with the "Make in India" initiative and the "Defence Production & Export Promotion Policy" goal of achieving $5 billion in annual defence exports by 2025.
The CHIMERA 200 system is designed as a primary defence against drone and swarm drone threats and has been field-proven across India's critical infrastructure sites. It offers robust and upgradeable wideband detection and neutralisation capabilities, rapid deployment features, and adaptability against evolving UAV threats. The system supports both omnidirectional and directional operations and can precisely detect threats, including drones, remote controls, and their take-off and control locations, across frequencies ranging from 400 MHz to 6 GHz with up to five simultaneous bands. Its evolutionary RF architecture, secure API for C2 and weapons integration, low false alarm rate, and scalable design enable it to counter current drone threats while also being adaptable for future needs like IEDs, signal spoofing, and broader electronic warfare.
Ashutosh Baheti, CEO of Paras Anti-Drone Technologies, emphasised that this collaboration with CERBAIR demonstrates India's growing reputation as a trusted source of advanced anti-drone technologies. Lucas Le BELL, President of CERBAIR, highlighted the surging demand for such solutions due to shifts in global geopolitics and the conflict in Ukraine, expressing confidence that by boosting neutralisation power output with agile modulations, the CHIMERA 200 will become a major success.
Amit Mahajan, Director, Paras Defence and Space Technologies Ltd., stated that India has transitioned beyond licensed manufacturing to become a global hub for developing and exporting world-class technologies, showcasing the country's technological strength and commitment to self-reliance and leadership in defence exports. Paras Defence plans to leverage this partnership to unlock new export opportunities and foster expanded cooperation and future deliveries through 2026 and beyond.
