Paras Defence and Space Technologies Ltd has entered into a strategic joint venture with Israeli firm Heven Drones Ltd to establish a new subsidiary in India, focused on designing and manufacturing logistics and cargo drones for both defence and commercial sectors.
The new entity, provisionally named Paras Heven Advanced Drones Private Limited, will be set up with an initial authorised capital of ₹1 lakh. Under the terms of the agreement, Paras Defence will hold a majority stake of 51%, while Heven Drones will retain the remaining 49%.
This collaboration is in line with the Indian government's 'Make in India' initiative, aiming to bolster indigenous drone production capabilities and reduce reliance on foreign technology. The joint venture will feature balanced governance, with each partner appointing two directors to the board and securing pre-emptive rights in the event of future equity issuance.
Paras Defence emphasised that it currently has no equity interest in Heven Drones or its associated entities, and the joint venture does not qualify as a related party transaction under regulatory definitions.
