The trend of Zen Tech's share price
The drone maker's shares have steadfastly ridden the uptrend over the past three years.
Starting at ₹30 in March 2020, the stock's value surged to ₹90 by August 2020, despite COVID, which had already captivated investors’ attention. Fast forward to the present, and Zen Tech's stock has achieved a new pinnacle. On 17 August 2023, the stock hit a staggering ₹911.40, marking an impressive 52-week high. The past month alone saw an over 45% surge in Zen Tech's stock price.

Order wins
The company's recent consecutive order wins have catapulted Zen Tech's market presence.
A substantial export order of around ₹340 crores was secured on 11 July 2023, closely following a ₹160 crores order from the Government of India on 6 July. Zen Tech's adherence to the Indigenous Design and Development (IDDM) plan, which prioritises domestic content, further solidified its industry standing.
Future growth prospects
Zen Tech's growth trajectory shows no signs of slowing down. The company's active participation in defence events and the Indian government's policy liberalisation for global drone exports position it for further significant order wins. The disbursement of ₹30 crores as a Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) for drones and components adds a new dimension to its growth story.
