How can anyone know? These things are kept a secret. Indian missile program is quite secretive
That's exactly my point but it is quite well known that we haven't built a huge arsenal of ballistic missiles. Just like it is well known that Chinese have 1000s of ballistic missiles. Cruise missiles data is in public so there is no problem in that. Whatever is the number, it is safe to say Chinese outnumbered us in this area by atleast 1:5.

. I am quite curious how many ballistic and cruise missile you think we have.?
Despite US pressure on India to halt the program, serial production of Prithvi-I began at Bharat Dynamic Limited sometime between mid-1994 and 1997. An estimated 75 Prithvi warheads have been produced.

.

We have Developed Lot of Prthivi's For Its development To PDV & PAD & Dhanush
Estimated range btw 200-300+ that Prithivi-1,2,3 Somewhere around 80-100 Prithivi-3

Some are under SFC for nuclear Strike

We have Four regiments Of brahmos for land 2 For Eastern front 2 for western
1 regiment 72+72 =144
4 regiments = 575 missiles

Shaurya ???? NA

Chinese j11 mostly flame out in while unreliable Fadec system hardly kicks in over plateau.J 11 mostly fly with 50-60% ordnance to put less pressure on engines.....

Yeah sure their defense budget is 4 times that of us. They are a bigger economy & they can afford it. Their rival neighbors have advanced weaponary too so they have to keep the numbers up. We surely have enough missiles to hit Beijing & Shanghai to dust.

We aren't talking about strategic nuke type scenario. Just tactical short range missiles like Prithvi . Unfortunately we need ballistic missiles to counter there mlrs range.

Precisely my point, our negotiation seems to be status quo 2020.
what if india's maximalist position is for PLA to vacate from whole of aksai hind, and indian territory of ladakh cannot be used by PLA for an offensive against india, there by india reserves the right to act on threat to india presented by massive buildup of PLA troops and equipment ?
Going by your notion, sir. If I am correct, we reserve the right to strike first?
