Ya'll Nibbiars in 2015 there were 7 operational regiments from where you got this number's?.
In 2015 IA operated 7 regiments?

The Indian Army, which currently operates two regiments of the indigenously-developed truck-mounted Pinaka multi-barrel rocket launcher (MBRL) systems, hopes to induct another eight by 2022

This is 2016 article.

In 2020 order for 6 more regiment has been placed with TATA SED and BEML which would make it 10 regiments.

30 units means 30 launchers? That is around 1.5 regiments.
Ya'll Nibbiars yeah but don't think we ever produced that much in a year. May be around 25 to 27. Well but we could soon have 16 launcher of the pinaka. 7 regiment's of the 127 upgraded grand 21. Not going to retire any time soon and the smerch 3 regiments of 54 launchers. In all we could have 469 launchers soon but thats still just more than 25 percent of the allegedly 1,800 launchers that's the PLA posses.

Not only launchers but the production capacity for Pinaka rockets is also very low in OFB. They are struggling to manufacture even 5000 rockets annualy despite years of promising so.
Ya'll Nibbiars barely reaching 4,000 to 4,800 rockets but never suppressed the 5,000 marks despite this. We need to Concertate more on this as the MBRL's needs urgent need to expand's.

What happened to Prahaar (150km) and Pragati(170km) missiles? Pranash is under development with 200km range.

Ya'll Nibbiars the quint has published articles where It's defamed the Tejas. Would take the pinaka numbers from the print or any similar sight as truth?.
