East Tech Symposium 2025

17 – 19 September 2025 | Tana Bhagat Indoor Stadium, Ranchi, Jharkhand

The East Tech Symposium 2025, jointly organised by HQ Eastern Command (Indian Army), Society of Indian Defence Manufacturers (SIDM), and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), is scheduled from 17th - 19th September 2025 at Tana Bhagat Indoor Stadium, Ranchi, Jharkhand.

As the largest command of the Indian Army, operating over 4096 kms, five states and varied terrains,  Eastern Command holds significant strategic responsibilities. Their operations demand specialized equipment—both conventional and modern—with requirements that constantly evolve to meet operational challenges.

The East Tech Symposium 2025 serves as a platform for the industry to exhibit its technical expertise and innovative solutions across a range of domains. Senior officers from the Eastern Command, along with representatives from the other commands, will attend the symposium to evaluate the technologies and solutions on display. Their assessments will guide future procurement under the Special Financial Powers granted to Army Commands, aimed at bolstering the operational readiness and capability of the Command.

The procurement from EASTECH has been rising ever since with over 300 Cr worth of SO placed from 2024 November till date and more than 400 cr projected from the 2025 edition. 

Eastern Command has expressed interest in conducting No Cost No Commitment (NCNC) trials for ready-to-induct products and equipment showcased by participating industries. The dates will be announced during the run-up to the event. 

A series of B2G & thematic sessions will be organised with Exhibition, offering deeper insights into the procurement process and equipment required by the Eastern Command. 

The three-day power packed event is likely to have the presence of Hon’ble Raksha Mantriji and Hon’ble Rajya Raksha Mantriji, Chief of Defence Staff at the Inaugural, an MSME Seminar, likely to be addressed by Secretary (DP), participation of Senior officers from the Armed Forces, Ministry of Defence and State Government.
