Bengaluru-based Sanlayan Technologies reported its first full-year net profit of ₹24.97 crore for FY26 as revenue surged to ₹139.61 crore. The private defence electronics firm, which serves clients like HAL and DRDO, currently holds an order backlog of ₹286 crore. It remains a private company and is not currently listed on Indian stock exchanges.
Sanlayan Technologies, a Bengaluru-based defence electronics firm, has reported a significant financial milestone, achieving its first full-year net profit of ₹24.97 crore for the fiscal year 2026. This turnaround comes alongside a sixfold increase in annual revenue, which reached ₹139.61 crore. The company primarily operates in the defence electronics, radar, and electronic warfare segments, supplying critical technology to major government and private entities.
The company’s growth has been largely driven by the transition of several defence programmes from the development stage into full-scale series production. Sanlayan works with key industry players including Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL), Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL), the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), and the Indian Armed Forces. Its current order backlog stands at ₹286 crore, with a project pipeline for future opportunities estimated to exceed ₹2,000 crore.
To support this scaling, Sanlayan recently expanded its operational capacity by inaugurating a 20,000-sq-ft facility in Bengaluru’s Electronic City. This plant is dedicated to the company’s radar and electronic warfare divisions. Additionally, the company has focused on human capital, hiring over 100 engineers specialized in fields such as radio frequency (RF), systems engineering, and artificial intelligence.
While the company’s financial performance shows positive momentum, it is important for market observers to note that Sanlayan Technologies is currently a private company. Unlike listed defence peers, its shares are not traded on public platforms like the NSE or BSE. As a private entity, it does not provide the same level of public liquidity or daily financial disclosures as listed competitors such as Astra Microwave, Kaynes Technology, or Dixon Technologies.
Operating in the Indian defence sector involves specific risks. The firm is highly dependent on government procurement policies, defence budget allocations, and the successful execution of long-term development projects. Delays in project delivery or changes in government procurement strategy can directly impact the company’s revenue and profit margins. Furthermore, the defence electronics space is highly competitive, requiring continuous investment in research and development to maintain an edge. The company’s long-term success will depend on its ability to effectively scale production and convert its substantial project pipeline into confirmed, profitable contracts.
