The Indian Army has proposed a ₹6,000 crore plan to acquire next-generation guns from domestic companies. The new towed gun system (TGS) will be lighter, more versatile, and feature-packed compared to current artillery guns. The army aims to acquire 400 advanced 155mm/52 calibre guns, with a total requirement estimated to be 1,200 guns. Companies such as Larsen and Toubro, Tata Defence, and Bharat Forge are expected to compete for the order once approved by the defense ministry.
