Small revenue (Rs. 40.8 Cr) relative to valuation implied by pre-IPO market interest
Source: Company Financial Filings
Indian defence procurement timelines are notoriously long; revenue from government orders can be delayed by years due to trials, certification, and budget allocation cycles
Electro-optical and thermal imaging technology is rapidly evolving; the company must continuously invest in R&D to remain competitive against global OEMs
Dual-use technology export controls (SCOMET list) restrict the company's ability to expand into export markets without complex licensing
As a 2018-incorporated company, it may lack the production scale and institutional relationships of established defence electronics players like BEL or MTAR
