Offset JVs with MSMEs

Reaching Indian MSMEs for Offset Projects could be a tedious process. Whom should we Partner with, and for which Products / Services? This needs to be a transparent, totally professional and ethical approach, especially during due diligence of 'the to-be-partner' company. It needs to be one2one between Foreign OEM and the Indian MSMEs. Govt. should only intervene if the would-be company is blacklisted, or unethical. As regards its technical competence, financials, and other attributes, let Foreign OEM be the sole judge. This will make the MSMEs rise from start-up stage. It will avoid a great deal of inadequacies, and the OEM would then be wholly responsible and accountable for any lapses.

Implementation of the Offset Projects should be strictly monitored.

'Made in India' and India-Owned e-Hub for Dual-Use Defence and Aerospace Products/Services

Our Defence and Aerospace e-Hub www.IndianDefenceIndustry.com  /  www.FreeMarketsDefence.com is 'Made in India', and fully owned by us.

At some later date it could have FDI, Technology and Marketing partnership(s). It needs to be further adapted, and grown to harness MSMEs, Indian and Foreign, after due diligence by an independent agency in order to provide reliable and validated database for selection / empanelling for various supply chains. And upgrade its technology on further funding and partnership(s).


Foreign technology and marketing partners who believe in the latest drive of the Indian Prime Minister to "Make in India" are welcome to partner with Svipja Technologies.
