In this video, we explore the booming Indian defence sector, which has rewarded investors with over 100% gains in the past year. India’s defence sector is witnessing rapid expansion, with defence production hitting a record high of ₹1.27 lakh crore in FY24. India is now the world’s 4th largest defence spender, with a budget allocation of ₹6 lakh crore for FY25. The key question now is whether this growth can sustain or if the sector has peaked. To answer this, the video dives deep into the sector's current trajectory, its drivers, challenges, and investment opportunities, particularly through the lens of the Nifty India Defence Index.

For investors looking for a diversified, passive play in this sector, the Nifty India Defence Index offers exposure to companies involved in defence manufacturing, electronics, and materials production. It includes key players like Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL), Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL), Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders etc. with a portfolio spread across 16 stocks and a balanced mix of public and private enterprises. The Nifty India Defence Index has delivered impressive returns, clocking a 56% rise over the last five years. However, it is currently trading at a high PE ratio of 56.8, indicating that while the growth prospects are strong, valuations remain elevated.

For those interested in investing, the Groww Nifty India Defence ETF, currently in its NFO phase, offers a simple way to gain exposure to this sector. This ETF is benchmarked to the Nifty India Defence Index, providing a diversified, low-cost investment option.
