The Laboratory is receiving failure investigation works from strategic and non-strategic sectors. Sometimes the contract amount of works received from the Indian Air Force or similar organisations in strategic sector are below the threshold limit (<5.0 Lakhs) for qualifying as Contract Research Project.
Keeping in view the national priorities, it has been decided that all projects from strategic sectors only can be projectised provided the project charges are 3 Lakhs or more received from a single source. The threshold for all non-strategic projects remains at present amounts (5 Lakhs or more).
