Contributions from subsidiaries, particularly Applied Research International Private Limited (ARIPL) and Unistring Tech Solutions (UTS), continued to reflect the success of Zen’s strategic investments. Looking ahead, we expect stronger subsidiary contributions as execution scales up and synergies are fully realised.

At the same time, Operation real-world validation of Zen’s Sindoor provided operational equipment, following which the Company is experiencing increased interest, particularly for its anti- drone systems.
We remain confident that the temporary headwinds being witnessed in FY26 will give way to a stronger performance in the years ahead, driven by our continued innovation, disciplined execution and the focus on expanding opportunities in India’s defence modernisation programme.”
