Zen Tech stock hits 5% upper circuit as it steps into UAV space with TISA Aerospace buy

Zen’s shares are still down nearly 20 percent in 2025 so far.

Shares of Zen Technologies rose 5 percent to hit an upper circuit of Rs 1,944.6 on Monday, June 23, after the company announced its foray into the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) segment through a strategic acquisition.

The rally came after Zen said it had acquired a controlling stake in TISA Aerospace Pvt. Ltd., a young defence-tech firm known for its indigenous UAVs and loitering munitions. The deal, valued at Rs 6.56 crore, marks Zen’s expansion beyond its core business of defence training systems and anti-drone solutions.

TISA is a relatively small player, with a turnover of Rs 1.81 crore in FY25, but it has already delivered a project for the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), signalling credibility in India’s fast-evolving defence space.

Zen’s management is banking on strong growth ahead. The company, which had an order book of Rs 691.94 crore as of March-end, is eyeing cumulative revenue of Rs 6,000 crore over FY26 to FY28.
