The Indian Navy commissioned INS Androth, the second Anti-Submarine Warfare Shallow Water Craft (ASW-SWC), during a formal ceremony held on October 6, 2025, at the Naval Dockyard in Visakhapatnam.
Vice Admiral Rajesh Pendharkar, Flag Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the Eastern Naval Command, presided over the event attended by senior naval officers and representatives of the shipbuilder.
INS Androth’s induction is an important step in the Indian Navy’s efforts to improve capabilities and promote self-reliance in defence manufacturing. It is part of a larger programme that recently added several advanced warships to the fleet, including INS Arnala, INS Nistar, INS Udaygiri, and INS Nilgiri.
