According to a new report by UnivDatos, The India Drones Market is expected to reach USD Million in 2033 by growing at a CAGR of 20.50% during the forecast period (2025-2033F). The rise of the drone market in India can be attributed to the encouraging Government policies and measures such as the new Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, Drone Rules 2021, and Kisan Drones. These positions have been informed by the emerging need to have automatic systems for agriculture, cattle herding, tracking, and construction, amongst others, hence the commercial application. Moreover, there is growing interest in domestic original equipment manufacturers, drones from a service perspective, and other related fields. The support from a growing number of startups, R&D centers, and friendly policies continues to build market demand.

According to the report, the impact of Drones has been identified to be high for the South India area. Some of how this impact has been felt include:
South India dominates the market in 2024. The States like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Telangana are at the forefront in consolidating drone technology and the manufacturing industry in South India. The two states of Karnataka and Telangana are major players in the drone manufacturing industry due to state-supported policies for innovation as well as drone zones. The development of a talented tech talent pool that is constantly being nurtured provides the right setting for supporting research, development, and testing, as well as integrating drone software into various sectors. In addition, the large-scale use in energy, mining, and urban infrastructure is also driving commercial-scale adoption across the southern states.
On January 24, 2025, the Government of Telangana entered a Memorandum of Understanding with JSW UAV Limited, a subsidiary of JSW Defence, to establish a state-of-the-art Unmanned Aerial Systems manufacturing facility in the State. As part of this strategic initiative, JSW UAV, in collaboration with a leading US-based defence technology company, is set to invest approximately Rs 800 crore in the project.
