GK and monthly revision
Centre eases norms for defence exports, licences
The Centre has liberalised defence export norms by allowing exporters to self-generate a one-time authorisation for multiple consignments, eliminating the need for separate approvals per batch. Licence validity has been extended from one year to two years, reducing compliance burden and processing time. This move aims to boost India's defence exports target of ₹35,000 crore by 2025 and enhance ease of doing business in the defence manufacturing sector. The reform aligns with the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiative and strengthens India's position as a credible defence exporter globally.
