What could break the thesis?
The risk is stable; management confirms that progression into long-term programs depends on government decisions, leading to an uneven pattern of sales beyond their control. (1 stable, 1 intensifying, 1 high-severity)
“Further, as many of these projects are initiated by the MoD driven by its own policies and priorities, the continued progression of these into long-term programs with a definitive quantum of orders depends largely on the government’s decisions. This results in an uneven and skewed pattern of sales for the Company, which is beyond the control of the Company.”
The risk remains high as the company explicitly states that delays from the MoD in project execution or shortfalls in defense outlays directly impact revenues. However, the trajectory is stable as the company is actively participating in 'Make in India' and import substitution programs to align with government priorities. (2 stable, 1 high-severity)
“Any delays from the MoD in the execution of AD&S projects associated with it, shortfalls in planned Defence outlays, adverse changes to government policy, etc. could directly have a direct impact on the activities of the Company and consequently on its revenues.”
