CRISIL Ratings reports that India's top 25 private aerospace and defense companies are projected to achieve a 20% revenue growth to Rs 13,500 crore in FY25, mainly due to higher government spending and private sector participation. Operating margins are expected to rise by 50-60 basis points, driven by revenue growth, economies of scale, and better fixed cost absorption.
