I thought that Meteor will never be given to fit a non west fighter (including Tejas, with its israeli radar), so no production in India.
The ASRAAM case is easier, as it is a short range missile so less sensible. The problem is that ASRAAM is fiited with a US Infra red seeker (the same than AIM9X american missile). If it's always the case, I doubt US will agree to give ToT for it. Maybe a new seeker for ASRAAM is on the horizon... a european one or better, an Indian one.
But in India there's always a long road between an agreement and reality. So many agreement were inked without real product at the end.

True
in India there's always a long road between an agreement and reality.

India already uses this missile , it replaced matra magic for jaguar fighters.

It's not a reason not to try to produce it on the indian soil.

I welcome this step very much.
Indeed , mirages are used for deep penetration strikes and jaguars are used as maritime strike fighter roles so they don't need long range missiles.
Their main weapons is Exocet missile though.for anti ship role.

DRDO develops Advanced Chaff Technology for Indian Air Force

Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh terms it another step of DRDO towards ‘AatmaNirbhar Bharat’
Posted On: 19 AUG 2021 11:46AM by PIB Delhi

Key highlights:

· The technology to safeguard fighter aircraft from hostile radar threats

· Given to the industry for production in large quantities

· Indian Air Force begins process of induction following completion of successful user trials

· Raksha Mantri terms it another step of DRDO towards ‘AatmaNirbhar Bharat’

Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) has developed an Advanced Chaff Technology to safeguard fighter aircraft of the Indian Air Force (IAF) against hostile radar threats. Defence Laboratory Jodhpur, a DRDO laboratory developed the advanced Chaff material and chaff cartridge-118/I in collaboration with High Energy Materials Research Laboratory (HEMRL), a Pune based laboratory of DRDO, meeting qualitative requirements of IAF. The Indian Air Force has started the process of induction of this technology after completion of successful user trials.

In today’s electronic warfare, survivability of fighter aircraft is of prime concern because of advancement in modern radar threats. To ensure survivability of aircraft, Counter Measure Dispensing System (CMDS) is used which provides passive jamming against Infra-Red and radar threats. Chaff is a critical defence technology used to protect fighter aircraft from hostile radar threats. The importance of this technology lies in the fact that very less quantity of chaff material deployed in the air acts as decoy to deflect enemy’s missiles for ensuring safety of the fighter aircraft. The technology has been given to the industry for production in large quantities to meet the annual rolling requirement of the Indian Air Force.

Raksha Mantri Shri Rajnath Singh has lauded DRDO, IAF and the industry for indigenous development of this critical technology, terming it as one more step of DRDO towards ‘AatmaNirbhar Bharat’ in strategic defence technologies. Secretary Department of Defence R&D and Chairman DRDO Dr G Satheesh Reddy congratulated the teams associated with the successful development of this advanced technology that will further strengthen the Indian Air Force.
