'Increase budget allocation for defence by 100 bps' * Government should increase allocation for defence by 100 basis points as it has been stagnant at 2.6 per cent of GDP for the last few years, MD and CEO of Samtel Avionics Puneet Kaura said.

Kaura further said since the government focuses on indigenisation in defence, the defence SMEs should be considered for reduction in corporate tax to 15 per cent.
