HISTORY:
The Beginning
The history and development of
Indian Ordnance Factories is directly linked with the British reign in India.

increase their political hold considered military hardware as vital element.
During 1775 British authorities accepted the establishment of Board of Ordnance
in Fort William, Kolkata. This marks the official beginning of the Army

In 1787 a gun powder factory was
established at Ishapore which started production from 1791 (at which location
Rifle Factory was established in 1904). In 1801 a Gun Carriage Agency at
Cossipore, Kolkata (presently known as Gun and Shell Factory, Cossipore) was
eatablished and production started from 18th March, 1802. This is the first
Industrial establishment of Ordnance Factories which has continued its
existence till date.
Growth of Indian Ordnance Factories
The growth of the Ordnance
Factories leading to its present setup has been continuous but in spurts. There
were 18 ordnance factories before India became independent in 1947. 21
factories have been established after independence - mostly, in wake of defence
preparedness imperatives caused by the three major wars fought by the Indian
Armed forces. 40th Factory is under establishment at Nalanda, Bihar.
