The total amount of the new orders increased to nearly Rs 4,208.96 million with the addition of a Rs 15 million export order for cartridge explosives. Apollo Micro Systems’ growing importance in vital defense supply chains is highlighted by a recent order for Rs 1,002.47 million from a private business for the provision of unmanned aerial systems to the Ministry of Defence, which is to be completed within four months.
Financial performance is being smoothly transferred into this strong order inflow.

EBITDA increased by 80% to Rs 59.19 crore, while margins increased by 600 basis points to 26%, demonstrating operational competence. With Profit After Tax (PAT) soaring 91% YoY to Rs 30.03 crore and a PAT margin of 13.3%, this operational leverage had a significant impact on the bottom line.
These outcomes demonstrate how well Apollo Micro Systems’ strategy emphasis on domestic defense technologies was carried out. The 40-year-old innovator, which is included in the BSE Small-cap Index and has a market capitalization of more than Rs 8,900 crore, specializes in the design, development, and production of cutting-edge electrical and electro-mechanical systems. It is positioned as a major participant in line with national initiatives like Atmanirbhar Bharat, creating cutting-edge technology for India’s strategic defense requirements thanks to its diverse skills and scalable infrastructure. The company’s steady expansion, shown by an astounding 2,000% return for investors over a five-year period, is indicative of its improved standing in the quickly changing defense industry.
