Follow these steps to submit your proposal to DIA-CoE IIT
Kharagpur.
Procedure for Proposal Submission
Basic research proposals are not encouraged. Typically, proposals with a TRL level >= 2-3 are considered for funding.
Proposed deliverables in the proposal must be substantial (such a TRL 5-6 prototype, algorithm, manufacturing process etc.) and they must be in line with DRDO's present/future technology requirements. To ensure this, the proposal will have to be recommended by a concerned DRDO Lab after your submission to this office.
Inclusion of an Industry (or a start-up) in the proposal as a co-PI is preferred to ensure easier realization of the proposed deliverables.
