India's defence and space technology sectors are converging, creating new opportunities for private companies to develop dual-use technologies. The government is facilitating this through initiatives like IN-SPACe, iDEX, and ADITI, and large-scale programmes such as the Space-Based Surveillance Phase-III, which involves private industry significantly, aiming to boost India as a supplier of advanced dual-use tech globally.
