Q3FY21 Press & Media Release

Hyderabad, January 30, 2021

Zen Technologies, India's leading defense training solutions provider announced its financial results for Q3FY21 today:

Commenting on the Q3FY21 performance, Mr. Ashok Atluri – Chairman, Managing Director and CFO said:

"For us financial year 2020-21 started on a subdued note and has indeed been a challenging year. In Q3FY21 the Revenue from Operations was lower than expected due to a delay in the release of the Modernization Fund from the Central Government. We expect the Government to release these funds soon which in turn should help us bag some orders. In these challenging times, we are focusing on strengthening our relationships with existing clients and doing the groundwork for development of new products. I would like to take this opportunity to share with you that we have developed 4 new products which should augur well for the company's growth in the coming future. These products are:

  • 1. Anti Drone Systems
  • 2. Integrated Air Defence Combat Simulators
  • 3. Drone Simulators
  • 4. Anti-Drone Simulators

We expect these products to start contributing to our revenues in the next 9-12 months, especially our Anti-Drone Systems & Simulators which are positioned to take benefit from a huge upcoming opportunity, given the recent change in the nature of warfare.

While the operating environment may continue to remain challenging in the near term, we remain confident that we will bear the fruits of our investments in the long term. We will continue to broaden the range of our offerings by continuing to invest in extensive R&D. With increased focus of the Government on curbing defence imports and making India self reliant, we are well-positioned to benefit from the upcoming opportunities."
