The liberalised rules will promote employment generation in this field, according to an official statement released by the MHA. An official said the rules were liberalised with the aim of making India a regional leader in supplying small arms to neighbouring countries as well as help it become an export hub.

MHA gives a boost to “Make in India” in the field of manufacturing of arms

The Ministry of Home Affairs has liberalised the Arms Rules to boost “Make in India” manufacturing policy of the Government as also to promote employment generation in the field of manufacturing of arms and ammunition.
The liberalisation of the Arms Rules will encourage investment in the manufacturing of arms and ammunition and weapon systems as part of the “Make in India” programme. The liberalised rules are expected to encourage the manufacturing activity and facilitate availability of world class weapons to meet the requirement of Armed Forces and Police Forces in sync with country’s defence indigenization programme. The liberalised rules will apply to licences granted by MHA for small arms & ammunition and licences granted by Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), under powers delegated to them, for tanks and other armoured fighting vehicles, defence aircrafts, space crafts, warships of all kinds, arms and ammunition and allied items of defence equipment other than small arms.
The salient features of the liberalised rules are:
(i) The licence granted for manufacturing shall now be valid for the life-time of the licensee company. The requirement of renewal of the license after every 5 years has been done away with.
(ii) Similarly, condition that the small arms and light weapons produced by manufacturer shall be sold to the Central Government or the State Governments with the prior approval of the Ministry of Home Affairs has been done away with.
(iii) Further, enhancement of capacity up to 15% of the quantity approved under licence will not require any further approval by the Government. The manufacturer will be required to give only prior intimation to the licensing authority in this regard.
(iv) The licence fee has been reduced significantly. Earlier the licence fee was Rs. 500/- per firearm which added up to very large sums and was a deterrent to seeking manufacturing licenses. The licence fee will now range from Rs. 5,000/- to the maximum of Rs. 50,000/-.
(v) The fee for manufacturing licence shall be payable at the time of grant of license rather than at the time of application.
(vi) Single manufacturing licence will be allowed for a multi-unit facility within the same State or in different States within the country.
A notification for the Arms (Amendment) Rules, 2017 has been issued by MHA on October 27, 2017.

So now you can get a manufacturing license for between ₹5,000 to ₹50,000 without need for ever renewing it BUT ordinary arms licensees have to still cough up ₹1,500 to ₹15,000 every three years for arms license renewal

The government needs to realize that if they want the small arms industry to grow, they would need a market that can only be provided by the common man/woman.

License its not all. Need CNC machines (1000000 - 5000000 rupies fo one 15-20 needed) ,need documentation to arms, need supplier of high-quality weapon steel (think in India no one), need extruder for working with plastic,molding machine for plastic, supplier of high-quality plastic and many many other
If your make a cartridge need primer supplier,need bullet supplier,need case supplier,need pyroxylin powder supplier, need cartridge packing machine (3-5),machines for assembling cartridges (4-5)

You also need to buy buildings for the production and storage of finished products and storage components
To store 10-15 tons of gunpowder, a special explosion-proof room

Your made all this handmade but quality be looks like Iof ashani

If your have no 5-10 million USD your may go home...weapon business its not for you

And about manufacturing and foreigh investor for this
I sent some e-mail to Indian embassy in Moscow and do some phone call,and no answer from Indian government (embassy India in Moscow)
Cool working what)
So your government (the Indian Embassy in Moscow) is promoting the program "make in India" and "cares" about creating jobs for citizens

I now about Indian bureaucracy,but this Indian embassy working "out of range"

In present I think that it's a bad idea to invest in India money in the production of weapons by foreign investors including a very bad idea to transfer modern technology
