520			_aWith INR 107.45 billion ($1.54 billion) worth of arms exports and export authorisations in 2018-2019, India realised its biggest annual defence export ambition to date. Breaking into the world's top 25 defence exporters for the first time, India has set its goal even higher, with a target of INR 300 billion ($5 billion) in defence exports by 2025. Can India achieve the goal and join the ranks of major arms exporting countries? What would it take for India to realise its defence export goal? And what has India done to achieve it? The paper examines India's recent defence export performance and, in so doing, it probes various reform initiatives taken by the Indian government to promote international arms sales. The article argues that India has a significant domestic arms manufacturing capability, which, if harnessed properly, could propel the country as a significant player in the global arms bazaar.
