Indian defence stocks rallied for a fourth straight session on Wednesday, led by Cochin Shipyard and Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers (GRSE), which surged up to 8% on the back of buzz around a mega fighter jet deal and optimism over the sector\u2019s long-term growth story.<\/p>\n

The Nifty Defence index jumped as much as 2.6% intraday. Cochin Shipyard climbed 5.6% to Rs 1,923.85, extending its winning streak to six sessions with an 18% gain over the period, while GRSE soared 7.6% to Rs 2,624.85. Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL), Mazagon Dock, and Paras Defence & Space Technologies also added 1\u20132%.<\/p>\n

Rafale deal chatter<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The momentum was sparked by reports that the Defence Ministry is reviewing an Indian Air Force plan to acquire 114 \u201cMade-in-India” Rafale fighter jets in a deal worth over Rs 2 lakh crore. The project, expected to involve Dassault Aviation and domestic partners, envisages 60% localisation. If cleared, it could take India\u2019s Rafale fleet to 176 aircraft.<\/p>\n

Analysts cautious on valuations<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Analysts remain bullish but warn against chasing stocks at current levels. Nischal Maheshwari said defence has a \u201cvery long runway” with strong order visibility, but advised waiting for a correction. HAL alone holds Rs 2 lakh crore in orders, while Mazagon Dock and Cochin Shipyard each have Rs 50,000\u201370,000 crore in backlogs.<\/p>\n

Amnish Aggarwal of Prabhudas Lilladher called defence a \u201cstructural story,” while veteran investor Ajay Bagga termed it a \u201cmulti-decade opportunity,” underpinned by Make in India and Aatmanirbhar Bharat.<\/p>\n

While execution capacity and valuations pose challenges, analysts agree that large deals like the Rafale project could further cement defence as one of the most compelling long-term themes in India\u2019s growth narrative.<\/p>\n
