SMPP secures additional order for 10,000 bullet proof jackets

Progress on On-Time Execution of 40,000 BPJ Orders for Paramilitary Forces. SMPP Limited, a leading Indian manufacturer of advanced ballistic protection systems for soldiers and weapon platforms across land, air, and sea, is progressing with the on-time execution of an order for 40,000 Bullet Proof Jackets (BPJs) for India’s paramilitary forces, including the Border Security Force (BSF), Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), and Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB). This order is in addition to the advanced BPJs SMPP supplied to the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and the Indian Army, designed to offer protection against armor-piercing bullets.
Out of the total order of 40,000 BPJs, approximately 28,000 units have already been delivered successfully. The remaining jackets are scheduled for delivery in the next financial year, in accordance with contractual timelines.
In recognition of SMPP’s timely delivery and consistent product quality, the paramilitary forces placed an additional order for approximately 10,000 Bullet Proof Jackets. With this new order, the cumulative quantity rises to 50,000 units.
SMPP’s Bullet Proof Jackets are designed and manufactured in India to meet stringent ballistic and operational requirements. The jackets are engineered to enhance survivability and operational readiness for personnel deployed in challenging and high-risk environments. Ashish Kansal, CEO of SMPP Limited, said that executing this large order reflects the company’s manufacturing strength, robust quality systems, and its deep commitment to safeguarding the lives of those who serve the nation.
He added that the company remains focused on delivering world-class protective solutions that support operational effectiveness while contributing to India’s goal of self-reliance in defence manufacturing.
Beyond personal protection systems, SMPP is expanding its capabilities across key defence segments. The company is developing manufacturing capacity for ammunition for 155 mm artillery guns, as well as drones and drone ammunition. These initiatives aim to further strengthen India’s indigenous defence manufacturing ecosystem.
Through innovation, manufacturing scale, and consistent execution, SMPP continues to play a vital role in protecting India’s security forces while advancing the vision of self-reliance in defence production.
