Industry Outlook

India is one of the strongest military forces in the world and holds a place of strategic importance for the Indian government. The top three largest market segments of the Indian defence sector are military fixed wing, naval vessels and surface combatants, and missiles and missile defence systems. Military rotorcraft, submarines, artillery, tactical communications, electronic warfare, and military land vehicles are some of the other well-known segments. Some of the major defence manufacturing companies in India are Bharat Earth Movers Ltd. (BEML), Bharat Electronics Ltd. (BEL), and Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. (HAL). The Indian defence manufacturing industry is a significant sector of the economy. The industry is likely to accelerate with rising concerns about national security.

According to the Global Power Index, the Indian defence sector ranks fourth in terms of firepower with a score of 0.0979 (with 0.0 being the perfect score). The government has set a target of achieving defence manufacturing worth ₹3,00,000 lakh crore (US$ 3,470 crore), by FY29.

The Indian government is focusing on innovative solutions to empower the country's defence and security via 'Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX)', which has provided a platform for start-ups to connect to the defence establishments and develop new technologies/products. Working through partner incubators, iDEX has been able to attract the start-up community to participate in the Defence India Start-up Challenge (DISC) programme. The Indian defence sector offers substantial opportunities across key segments, driven by significant budget allocations and a focus on modernisation and self-reliance.

Company Information

CFF Fluid Control Limited was incorporated with a vision to serve the requirements of the emerging defence sector of the country. They are engaged in the manufacturing and servicing of submarine machinery, critical component systems, and test facilities for Indian Defence PSU Shipyard. On 12 June 2023, the company, vide an Initial Public Offer, listed its equity shares on the BSE SME Platform, embarking on its journey of being a public listed company. As of 31 May 2025, they have a robust order book of ₹513.97 crores, of which over 90% pertains to orders from Indian Defence PSU Shipyard (including its OEMs).

Currently, they operate through their manufacturing facilities located at Khopoli, Raigarh, which is entirely dedicated to catering to the requirements of Indian Defence PSU Shipyard for manufacturing and supplying mechanical equipment for the Scorpene Submarine Programme of India. Their manufacturing facilities at Khopoli are spread over 6,000 sq. metres and are well-equipped with all the relevant state-of-the-art machinery and testing facilities. They have in-house capabilities and proficiency in design, manufacturing, and providing services for fluid control systems, distributor and air panels, weapons and control systems, steering gear, propulsion systems, high-pressure air systems, hydraulics systems, breathing and diving air systems, and integrated platform management systems for submarines and surface ships for the Indian Defence PSU Shipyard and its OEMs.

Visible growth through robust order book position and strong financial position

With their continued focus on core areas, diversification of their skill set, their ability to successfully bid and win new orders and enhancement of order book across diverse critical components and systems required in Indian Defence PSU Shipyard submarines and other ships lines, they are able to pursue a broader range of project tenders and therefore maximise their business volume and contract profit margins. As of 31 May 2025, they have an order book of ₹51,397 crores. They have experienced sustained growth with respect to the key financial indicators as well as a consistent improvement in their balance sheet position. Based on their restated financial statements, their revenue from operations, EBITDA and profit after tax have grown at a CAGR of 43.52%, 49.19% and 53.40% respectively from FY 2022-23 to 2024-25.

Focus on navy defence sector and strategic partnership with foreign manufacturer for technological advancement

They have established longstanding strategic partnerships with foreign manufacturers. These partnerships are carefully chosen to bring technology which is not available in India and is needed for the Indian defence industry. Their key tie-up is with M/s Nereides, a French company engaged in the manufacturing of towed wire antennae. They have an agreement for technology transfer, process development and manufacture of towed wire antennae for Indian Defence PSU Shipyard and also export to foreign countries. Another tie-up is with M/s Atlas Elektronik GmbH, a subsidiary of Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems, known for its expertise in naval technologies, including sonar systems. This strategic partnership is aimed at promoting the indigenisation of sonar technology and other equipment, which is essential for improving national defence capabilities and reducing reliance on foreign technology. They believe this initiative can lead to enhanced performance, reduced costs, and greater control over vital defence technologies.

Experienced promoters and management team

They are led by qualified and experienced promoters and a management team that has the expertise and vision to manage and grow their business. Their promoters, Mr. Sunil Menon and Mr. Gautam Makker, have more than three decades of business experience and over two decades of defence sector-related experience and have been instrumental in their growth and development. Their promoters are ably supported by a well-educated and experienced professional management team whose collective experience and capabilities enable them to understand and anticipate market trends; manage their business operations and growth; leverage customer relationships; and respond to changes in customer preferences. They will continue to leverage the experience of their management team and their understanding of the industry they operate in to take advantage of current and future market opportunities.

Geographical concentration related risks

Currently, the company operates through one manufacturing facility, located at Khopoli, Maharashtra. Further, they have also taken on rent an additional facility at Pune, Maharashtra. Their success depends on their ability to successfully manufacture and deliver their products to execute their scheduled order book. Their manufacturing facilities are susceptible to damage or interruption or operating risks, such as human error, power loss, breakdown or failure of equipment, power supply or processes, performance below expected levels of output or efficiency, obsolescence, loss of services of their external contractors, terrorist attacks, acts of war, break-ins, earthquakes, other natural disasters and industrial accidents and similar events. Further, any materially adverse social, political or economic development, civil disruptions, or changes in the policies of the state government or state or local governments in this region could adversely affect their manufacturing operations, and require a modification of their business strategy, or require them to incur significant capital expenditure or suspend their operations.

Dependence on third parties

All the transportation and logistics needs for their product supplies are handled by third parties. Since the cost of their goods carried by third-party transporters is typically much higher than the consideration paid for transportation, it may be difficult for them to recover damages for damaged, delayed or lost goods. Their operations and profitability are dependent upon the availability of transportation and other logistic facilities in a timely and cost-efficient manner. Accordingly, their business is vulnerable to increased transportation costs, transportation strikes and lock-outs, shortage of labour, delays and disruption of transportation services for events such as weather-related problems and accidents.

They rely on third-party raw material suppliers for their business. They are exposed to the risk of these suppliers, third-party manufacturers and service providers failing to adhere to the standards set for them by the company and statutory and/or regulatory bodies in respect of factors such as quality, quantum of production, weights and measures and safety standards and non-compliance of relevant rules and regulations. Any consequent action by such statutory and/or regulatory bodies or otherwise could adversely affect their business operations, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, due to reasons such as shortage of supply, product liability claims and product recalls.

Foreign exchange risks

Fluctuation in currency exchange rates influences their results of operations. As and when outflows are incurred, the required foreign exchange is bought from the market at the then prevailing exchange rate. In future they may continue to incur capital expenditures, including raw materials, equipment and machinery, denominated in foreign currencies. The exchange rates between the rupee and USD and between the rupee and EUR have changed substantially in recent years and may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future. Accordingly, any decline in the value of the rupee against the US dollar and euro or any other foreign currency would increase the rupee cost of such raw materials. Although they closely follow their exposure to foreign currencies in an attempt to reduce the risks of currency fluctuations, these activities are not always sufficient to protect them against incurring potential losses if currencies fluctuate significantly. Any such losses on account of foreign exchange fluctuations may affect their results of operations.
