The Indian Navy, which is the naval warfare branch of the Indian Armed Forces, has approximately over 135 warships on active commission. [1]

By forethought, the IN's Maritime Capability Perspective Plan (MCPP) for the period 2012–2027 had set the objective of the service becoming a 250-ship fleet by 2035. [2] By certain calculations, the IN is still estimated to comprise a future total of 155-160 ships by 2030. [3]

By inventory, the IN's principal assets include its aircraft carrier component – the service has operated a total of four aircraft carriers since 1961; its submarine component – which presently includes a strategic submarine force; and its amphibious component – which principally oversees humanitarian operations. [4] Nevertheless, the IN still lacks certain capability-specific assets – such as mine countermeasures vessels, or are quantitatively inadequate – such as attack submarines. [5]

The IN's fleet inventory is divided amongst its three regional formations:
