India's Ministry of Defence urged industry to exercise caution while procuring items from Mahendra Singh Dhoni-backed Garuda Aerospace and Dhaksha Unmanned Systems, a unit of Coromandel International, as they were allegedly selling and supplying drones comprised of Chinese components to Indian defence forces.
Sky Industries from Gandhinagar was the only other company named by the Department of Defence Production in the letter dated June 25 to industry associations ASSOCHAM, Ficci and Society of Indian Defence Manufacturers (SIDM).
In response to detailed queries, Chennai-based Dhaksha Unmanned Systems denied using Chinese components in their drones, while Garuda Aerospace said that it adheres to all government regulations, and that it ensures "that all components meet all regulatory and quality standards before they are integrated" into its products.
