The Indigenous Defence Equipment Exporters Association (IDEEA) is the nodal-agency of the Government of India tasked with handling exports of Indian military equipment. The organization is based in Delhi.[4]

History[edit]

The Defence Production Policy of 2018 targeted achieving annual defence exports of Rs 35,000 crore by 2025.[5] The IDEEA was formed to facilitate achieving this.[1] The organisation was formally inaugurated on 18 October 2019 by Bipin Rawat, the acting Chief of Indian Army,[1][6] who reiterated the target[7] in the presence of Defence Attaches from various countries.[3]

Responsibilities[edit]

The IDEEA's aim is to make India “one of the top three defence equipment exporters in the world.”[1] It is the nodal-agency tasked with processing all export inquiries from global customers of Indian military equipment.[1] The agency will serve as the interface between Indian military equipment producers and global customers.[3]

Organisation[edit]

The Indigenous Defence Equipment Exporters Association is a non-profit organisation created under the terms of the Section 8 of the Companies Act.[1]
