DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The India drone (UAV) market is estimated to be USD 0.47 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 1.39 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 24.4% according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets. The Indian drone (UAV) market is growing very fast because of the rising demand for these drones from different sectors, such as agriculture, defense, infrastructure, logistics, and e-commerce. Farmers use drones for spraying, crop monitoring, and improving farm output, while the defense sector uses them for border security, surveillance, and tactical missions. In e-commerce and logistics, drones are being used on a trial basis to make deliveries faster, especially in rural and hard-to-reach areas. The government is also helping this growth through policies and programs like Drone Shakti, which encourage local production, training, and new services, such as Drone-as-a-Service (DAAS). These efforts are creating a strong demand for the drone industry in India.
