Amusing to see that India’s premier missile manufacturer spends as much on research as our hair oil company.

So either Mario is spending tooooo much or Bharat Dynamics is spending tooooo little..

Astounding and unbelievable.
It would be interesting to watch these R&D expenses as a % of sales for both the companies.

Defence industries typically spend quite a lot in R&D.

Does it not mean that Marico is spending more ? How does it compare with consumer industry in general?

They have a partnership going with DRDO – a research organization. Its good to see they spend less on research – why should they when DRDO is doing that on their behalf.
