Indian version of Ballistic Missile Defence (BMD) is ready. Under Phase-1 deployment, the National Capital Region (NCR) will come under the safe shield of programme Air Defence (AD). ... Entire gamut of operations will be linked to the Integrated Defence Staff (IDS) in Delhi.
Since the project inception, DRDO has so far conducted six successive trials (enemy missile interception). India's network-centric warfare capabilities will come to the party with AD cover for NCR 1st. Once, this module is operational, we can replicate the same to other Indian cities. Missile launchers, radars, interceptors and network systems have all being readied for for NCR. India will now be among the league of nations with BMD capabilities.
Giving the technical challenges of AD, sources said: We have to detect the missile and should possess the ability to track it at distances of several hundred kilometers. We need to give adequate reaction time to the control center to process and analyse the threat and to the interceptors to be launched and take on the incoming missile before it reaches the target. We have the radars now and the plan for improved longer ranges is in progress.

The size of an incoming missile payload could be just 2 to 3 meters and it comes at a speed of approx 5 km per sec, giving very few seconds to the weapon systems to react. This requires very accurate prediction of incoming missile position as well as control of interceptor path. The coverage has to ensure adequate number of radars, a highly integrated, network-centric system which processes the inputs from various radars, predict the path of the incoming missile and decide when the interceptor has to be launched, sources said.
Once the NCR module is deployed, similar modules can be adopted covering other important regions and eventually the entire country. All modules are interlinked in overlapping fashion to generate networked AD system sources said. The interceptor missile is primarily designed for engaging short to medium-range ballistic missiles (SRBM/MRBM) with ranges up to 2000 km. It has also got the capability to engage quasi ballistic missiles of medium range. The performance in terms of the kill zone and lethality of this INDIAN missile is significantly higher than contemporary American missiles like PAC-3.
great .
Wow m Indian
thanks for sharing,this is very helpful 
Fine information
great info 
Goood going India
