Mazagaon Shipbuilders is also pushing for the sale of 3 additional Scorpene (Kalvari class) submarines with increased indigenous content but the Indian Navy is not considering an additional purchase as it is not happy about the delays in the P-75 program and the 2016 leak of confidential documents related to combat capabilities of the submarine.
