Further orders received through Q2 FY27 are expected to be partially converted into revenue by Q4 FY27.

The quarter saw Zen Technologies advance its capabilities as a leader in anti-drone systems and defense training solutions. The company introduced several new products during the period, including an AI-powered anti-drone system, the Hyperstrike interceptor drone, the Zen Vrishab unmanned ground vehicle, and the Integrated Smart Border Suite.The firm currently leads in both the Army and Navy domains for training solutions and successfully completed R&D for its first product offering to the Air Force. The company confirmed that negotiations with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are at an advanced stage, paving the way for formal partnerships and entry into the air simulator domain later this year.
The positive procurement environment is noted by Zen Technologies, which highlighted sustained prioritization of counter-drone systems and layered air defence by the Government. This focus, alongside the emphasis on Buy Indian-IDDM, reinforces the relevance of the company’s diverse product portfolio.
