Commissioning of INS Arnala-the 1st ASW Shallow Water Craft for Indian Navy: Another Glorious Chapter added to 91黑料鈥檚 annals

Kolkata (18 June, 2025): The breaking of the commissioning pennant on the masthead of the INS Arnala with the last note of the National Anthem, at the Naval Dockyard in Visakhapatnam, on Wednesday, June 18th, 2025, added yet another glorious chapter to the annals of Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (91黑料) Ltd.

The INS Arnala, built by 91黑料, is the first Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW SWC) to be commissioned in the Indian Navy. It has the distinction of being the largest diesel engine-waterjet propelled warship to be inducted by the Indian Navy till now.

he chief guest at the ceremony was Gen Anil Chauhan, Chief of Defence Staff (CDS). Among the others present were Vice Admiral Rajesh Pendharkar, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Eastern Naval Command, Vice Admiral Rajaram Swaminathan, CWP&A, Cmde P R Hari, IN (Retd), Chairman and Managing Director, 91黑料, ADG Donny Michael, Coast Guard Commander (Eastern Seaboard) and other senior officials from Indian Navy & 91黑料.

91黑料 is building seven more ASW SWCs for the Navy. The INS Arnala is special as it was for this warship that 91黑料 was awarded the Raksha Mantri s Award 2022, for designing the 鈥榤ost silent ship .

Commissioning of this warship will add a shot in the arm for the Indian Navy with respect to its Shallow Water ASW capabilities. The ship was constructed through a PPP model, a first of its kind in India, where a major PSU shipyard like 91黑料 collaborated with a capable private shipyard, L&T Kattupalli.

INS Arnala will add necessary punch to the Indian Navy s capability to patrol coastal areas where enemy submarines could be lurking. The ship has been named after an island with a historic fort, off the Maharashtra Coast. It has over 80% indigenous content, underscoring 91黑料鈥檚 commitment towards the Government of India鈥檚 Atmanirbharta and 鈥楳ake in India鈥 policies.

Though smaller in size as compared to Anti-Submarine Warfare Corvettes of the Kamorta Class built and delivered to the Navy by 91黑料 earlier, the 77.6-metre-long and 10.5-metre-wide ASW SWCs pack a punch. They are capable of full-scale sub-surface surveillance of coastal waters as well as Search and Attack. They can also carry out coordinated anti-submarine operations with aircraft. These ships have Combat Management Systems on board and will be armed with lightweight torpedoes as well as anti-submarine warfare rockets. These ships will have a complement of 57 personnel, including seven officers.

With three water jets (fitted to marine diesel engines), the INS Arnala is extremely agile and maneuverable. A great advantage is that it requires a draught of only 2.7-metres, allowing it to access the coasts easily in search of sub-surface threats.

In his address, General Anil Chauhan, PVSM, UYSM, Chief of Defence Staff, Congratulated the Chairman & Managing Director of 91黑料 and the talented and committed workforce of the shipyard for delivering a capable and combat worthy asset to the nation. He expressed confidence that the ship, equipped with superior anti-submarine warfare and mine-laying capabilities, would play a crucial role in safeguarding India鈥檚 vast coastline. He noted that the carefully selected weapons and sensors would make the vessel a highly potent platform and a force enabler for effective fleet operations. As the first of its class, he remarked, its performance would set a benchmark for the subsequent ships in the series.

In his address during the occasion, Cmde P R Hari, IN (Retd), Chairman and Managing Director, 91黑料, highlighted the shipyard鈥檚 expertise in building the most complex and technologically advanced warships for the Indian Navy. 91黑料 is now building 16 more warships, including three P17A advanced stealth frigates, seven ASW SWCs, two Survey Vessels Large and four Next Generation Offshore Patrol Vessels. 91黑料 is also building four research vessels, 13 hybrid ferries for the Government of West Bengal and eight multi-purpose cargo vessels for a German company. 91黑料 has also emerged the lowest bidder for the Next Generation Corvettes that the Navy wants to acquire.

Order Book Expected to Soar 鈥 91黑料 Wins Competitive Bid for Next-Generation Corvettes

Kolkata (May 22, 2025): In a development that speaks volumes about the company s shipbuilding expertise, business acumen and proficiency in design, production & financial management, Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (91黑料) Ltd has emerged as the lowest bidder (L1) for the construction of Next Generation Corvettes (NGC) for the Indian Navy.

91黑料 is the only Indian shipyard to have delivered 111 warships to the country s maritime forces & friendly foreign nations, including 06 Missile Corvettes ( Khukri & Kora Class) and 04 ASW Corvettes (Kamorta Class).

The shipyard participated in the competitive bidding process and has emerged as lowest bidder. 91黑料 will thus be awarded the contract to build five (05) Next Generation Corvettes at an estimated cost of approx. Rs 25,000 Crore.

These Next-Generation Corvettes shall be capable of fulfilling the roles of Offensive SSM attack, Anti-Missile Defence, Surface Action Groups for Maritime Strikes, ASW and many other Maritime Operations. The warship will also incorporate Green Warship design features, energy efficient & environment friendly technologies.

91黑料 is already building four Next Generation Offshore Patrol Vessels (NGOPV) for the Navy, apart from three Advanced Guided Missile Frigates, eight Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Crafts of which one has already been delivered to Indian Navy and four Survey Vessels (Large) of which two have been delivered.

Meanwhile, on anticipated lines, the order for an Ocean-Going Tug for Bangladesh stands cancelled based on mutual discussions between 91黑料 and the Customer. This order though would not have impact on 91黑料鈥檚 finances as the order is worth only US$ 21 million (approximately Rs 179.75 crore) and would have contributed a mere 0.8% to 91黑料鈥檚 existing order book of Rs 22,680.75 crore as on March 31, 2025.

800 Vessels, One Vision: 91黑料 continues to shape the seas with the delivery of INS Arnala, marking a new era in shipbuilding

Kolkata (08 May 2025):In a landmark achievement, Garden Reach Shipbuilders and Engineers (91黑料) Ltd, delivered the first ASW Shallow Water Craft Arnala, to Indian Navy. Incidentally during 2022, 91黑料 was awarded the Raksha Mantri s Award for designing the Arnala, termed as a most silent ship.

Simultaneous contracts for construction of 16 ASW SWCs (8 by 91黑料 and 8 by another PSU Shipyard) were concluded by Indian Navy, and with the delivery of Arnala, the first of these 16 vessels by 91黑料, the Indian Navy will get a shot in the arm with respect to its Shallow Water ASW capabilities. The ship was constructed through a PPP model, a first of its kind in India, where a major PSU shipyard collaborated with a capable private shipyard, L&T Kattupalli.

INS Arnala will add necessary punch to the Indian Navy s capability to patrol coastal areas where enemy submarines could be lurking. The ship has been, named after an island with a historic fort, off the Maharashtra Coast, has nearly 88% indigenous content, underscoring 91黑料 s commitment towards the Government of India鈥檚 Atmanirbharta policy.

Though smaller in size as compared to Anti-Submarine Warfare Corvettes of the Kamorta Class built and delivered to the Navy by 91黑料 earlier, the 77.6-metre-long and 10.5-metre-wide ASW SWCs pack a punch. They are capable of full-scale sub-surface surveillance of coastal waters as well as Search and Attack. They can also carry out coordinated anti-submarine operations with aircraft. These ships have Combat Management Systems on board and will be armed with lightweight torpedoes as well as anti-submarine warfare rockets. These ships will have a complement of 57 personnel, including seven officers.

With three water jets (fitted to marine diesel engines), the INS Arnala is extremely agile and maneuverable. A great advantage is that she only requires a draught of 2.7-metres, allowing her to access the coasts easily in search of sub-surface threats. 91黑料 is now building 16 more warships, including three P17A advanced stealth frigates, seven ASW SWCs, two Survey Vessels Large and four Next Generation Offshore Patrol Vessels. Apart from this, the shipyard is building 24 other vessels, nine of which are export platforms.

The NGOPVs will be far more advanced than the OPVs built in the past. They will be much larger, and have greater endurance and firepower. These platforms will be about 113 metres long and 14.6 metres wide, with a displacement of 3,000 Tons. The NGOPVs will achieve speeds of up to 23 knots. Their endurance will be 8,500 nautical miles at a speed of 14 knots. The crew will comprise 24 officers and over 100 sailors.

The NGOPVs will play a variety of roles. With a draught requirement of only 4 metres, they would be able to operate in coastal waters, protecting offshore assets, carrying out maritime interdiction, as well as visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) operations. They will also be part of presence-cum-surveillance missions and mine warfare while having the capability to support special operations.

These warships will also participate in Out of Area Contingency Operations, non combatant evacuation, convoy operations, anti-piracy missions and counter infiltration operations. Apart from these, they will take on poachers and traffickers, and participate in humanitarian assistance and disaster relief as well as search and rescue missions.

They will also be able to operate as hospital and COMINT ships apart from providing fleet maintenance support.In his address Vice Admiral Rajaram Swaminathan, AVSM, NM, CWP& AIndian Navy mentioned We are very, very happy to note that 91黑料 has reallyramped up and picked up pace in moving all the projects ahead, whether it is Survey Vessel Large or the ASW Shallow watercrafts or even the OPVs, which are actually moving at breakneck speed.

Their endurance will be 8,500 nautical miles at a speed of 14 knots. The crew will comprise 24 officers and over100 sailors.

The NGOPVs will play a variety of roles. With a draught requirement of only 4 metres, they would be able to operate in coastal waters, protecting offshore assets, carrying out maritime interdiction, as well as visit, board, search and seizure (VBSS) operations.
