Auto parts magnate, along with son, Amit, who helps him run operations, has big plans for the defense sector. Flagship Bharat Forge has partnered with Sweden's Saab and Israel's Elbit Systems and Rafael Advanced Defense Systems to make a range of products, including missiles and guns. To boost its nonauto forgings business, Bharat Forge acquired Mécanique Générale Langroise, a French firm making components for the oil and gas industry in January.
