30 Infantry Battalions are proposed to be raised in the Thirteenth 5 year Plan towards enhancing combat capacity.

Mobility of Infantry is proposed to be enhanced through introduction of superior vehicles with better cross country mobility, as stated by Defence Minister AK Antony in the parliament.

The budgetary allocation for capital acquisition for modernization of Army during Financial Year 2012-2013 is Rs.13724.14 crore.
