| Stock | Impact | Reason |
|-------|:-----:|--------|
| **BEL** | 🟢 **Buy** | Lead integrator for defence electronics. Will co-produce UNICORN radar mast for Indian Navy. Already confirmed as production partner by Japan. Japan tech transfer = IP upgrade |
| **MAZDOCK** | 🟢 **Buy** | Primary shipyard for UNICORN mast integration on Indian Navy warships. MDL official confirmed formal agreement for co-development and utilization. Direct order book beneficiary |
| **HAL** | 🟢 **Buy** | Japan aerospace technology transfer potential. Indo-Pacific security focus drives procurement spend. Existing Japan engine co-development programs get boost |
| **CGPOWER** | 🟢 **Buy** | Renesas (Japan) JV for OSAT semiconductor facility in Sanand, Gujarat. Japan's $10B semiconductor push directly flows through this JV. First Made-in-India chip coming from this facility |
| **KAYNES** | 🟡 **Hold** | Inaugurated ₹3,300 Cr semiconductor plant in Sanand (PM Modi's July 1 visit). Japan semiconductor supply chain partnership benefits KAYNES' OSAT ambitions. But FY26 guidance miss (-49% from ATH) tempers near-term outlook |
| **LT** | 🟢 **Buy** | Japan infrastructure financing for DMIC, bullet train, and industrial corridors. L&T is primary EPC contractor for Japan-funded infra projects in India |
