The details
- Ammunic Systems is a Bengaluru-based defence tech startup that designs and develops advanced electronic fuzes, warheads, and munition integration technologies for India's military.
- The company was founded in 2024 by siblings Priyanka and Krishna Singhal.
- Ammunic focuses on creating 'intelligent' innards or modular, digital components that replace legacy mechanical designs in modern weaponry.
- Its product line includes smart firing systems and networked munitions for land operations and gravity-drop munitions used in aerial warfare.
- On the naval front, Ammunic has developed India’s first advanced electronic underwater fuze, a mission-critical component for modern naval munitions and autonomous underwater vehicles.
- A patent has been filed for the technology, and the company follows a prototype-to-scale model aligned with the defence ministry’s Make-II and Technology Development Fund (TDF) pathways.
- Ammunic raised $1.1 Mn in private funding from India Accelerator in July 2025.
- Within a year of launch, the startup has begun working with defence PSUs and user agencies such as the Indian Army, Indian Air Force, CRPF, and DRDO.
The bigger picture
- India is among the top five military spenders, but its homegrown defence production hit a record INR 1.27 Lakh Cr in FY24, with startups and MSMEs emerging as key players.
- Ammunic’s work aligns with the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, helping India reduce its dependence on military imports.
- The startup’s focus on electronic fuzes and smart munitions reflects a shift toward indigenous technology in India’s defence sector.
