MIC Electronics, a Hyderabad-based electronics manufacturing company, is strengthening its focus on the defence sector with an integrated approach spanning electronics manufacturing, rapid prototyping, indigenisation, and emerging semiconductor capabilities, aligned with India’s push to build a self-reliant defence ecosystem.
As India accelerates its defence indigenisation efforts, industry attention is increasingly shifting towards the electronics and sub-systems that power modern defence platforms—an area that continues to see significant import dependence. In response, MIC Electronics is positioning itself as a domestic partner supporting the development and manufacturing of high-reliability electronic components for strategic applications.
With over three decades of experience, the company brings established credentials, including RDSO approval and ISO certifications, along with a track record of operating in complex, quality-sensitive sectors such as railways and defence-adjacent supply chains, including engagements with DPSU’s and CPSU’s.
At the core of MIC’s defence focus is its Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) capability, which supports the production of electronic sub-assemblies used in communication systems, control units, and other mission-critical applications. This is complemented by its rapid prototyping infrastructure, enabling faster conversion of design concepts into functional hardware—an increasingly critical requirement for defence innovation programs and R&D-led development.
The company is also advancing its role in India’s indigenisation efforts through structured reverse engineering, localisation, and technology transfer initiatives. These capabilities are aligned with the government’s Positive Indigenisation List and broader “Make in India” objectives, aimed at reducing reliance on imported electronic systems.
Looking ahead, MIC Electronics is expanding its strategic roadmap through its semiconductor initiative, focused on building long-term capability in chip design and the broader electronics value chains with forward and backward integrations.
“India has made strong progress in indigenising defence platforms, but electronics remains a critical layer where import dependence persists,” said Rakshit Mathur, CEO of MIC Electronics Ltd. “Our focus is on building the manufacturing and technology backbone required to support this shift—from prototyping and EMS to indigenisation and future semiconductor capability.”
In addition to its core electronics capabilities, MIC’s broader ecosystem includes solutions in energy storage, fuel management, and circular electronics, supporting defence infrastructure, logistics efficiency, and lifecycle management.
In line with its commitment to strengthening leadership capabilities and contributing to India’s self-reliance vision, MIC Electronics participated in the ‘Atma Nirbharta – Karmayogi Leadership Programme (Edition 2)’ at the Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI), Hyderabad. The programme brings together leaders from defence, technology, and industry to foster strategic collaboration and drive innovation aligned with national priorities to understand and prepare to support the needs of the hour and nation..
As India’s defence manufacturing ecosystem evolves, MIC Electronics aims to play a key role in strengthening the domestic electronics backbone that underpins next-generation defence systems.
