We are very familiar especially the pakistanis are with the indian agencies like Research and Analysis Wing(RAW), Intelligence Bureau(IB), Central Bureau of Investigation(CBI), National Investigative Agency(NIA) but how many of you guys have known of the following mentioned ones??
National Technical Reconnaissance Organization(NTRO)
The country's prime civilian technology intelligence agency. Modeled on the American NSA. Works in very close coordination with the Aviation Research Centre.
Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA)
This agency was established on 5 March, 2002 with the appointment of Lt. General Kamal Davar as the first Director General (DG). The DG reports to the Chief Of Defence Staffs (CDS). It is supposed to be the nodal agency for all defence related intelligence, thus distinguishing it from the R&AW. Much of the agency's budget and operations are classified.
The DIA has control over some of the Army's prized technical intelligence assets the Directorate of Signals Intelligence and the Defence Image Processing and Analysis Centre (DIPAC). While the Signals Directorate is responsible for acquiring and decrypting enemy communications, the DIPAC controls India's satellite-based image acquisition capabilities. The DIA also controls the Defence Information Warfare Agency (DIWA). DIWA handles all elements of the information warfare repertoire, including psychological operations, cyber-war, electronic intercepts and the monitoring of sound waves.
Joint Cipher Bureau(JCB)
The Joint Cipher Bureau works closely with the IB and R&AW. It is responsible for cryptanalysis and encryption of sensitive data.[citation needed] The inter-services Joint Cipher Bureau has primary responsibility for cryptology and SIGINT, providing coordination and direction to the other military service organizations with similar mission. Most current equipment providing tactical intelligence is of Russian origin, including specialized direction finding and monitoring equipment.
The Joint Cipher Bureau is also responsible for issues relating to public and private key management. Cryptographic products are export-controlled licensed items, and licenses to India are not generally available for products of key length of more than 56 bits.[citation needed] The domestic Indian computer industry primarily produces PCs, and PC-compatible cryptographic products have been developed and are being used commercially. More robust cryptologic systems are not commercially produced in India, and progress in this field has been slow due to the general unavailability of technology and know-how. Customised cryptographic products have been designed and produced by organizations in the defense sector are engaged in the implementation of cryptographic techniques, protocols and the products.
All India Radio Monitoring Service(AIRMS)
The Central Monitoring Service of All India Radio monitors all radio broadcasts in India as well as all foreign radio broadcasts which can be received in India.
Central Monitoring Services based in New Delhi, Jammu and Kolkata is taken over by NTRO, National Technical Reserach Orgnisation in 2005 and now working as open source intelligence unit.
Signals Intelligence Directorate(SID)
The Signals Intelligence Directorate is a joint service organisation, manned by personnel from the Army, Navy and Air Force. It has a large number of WEUs (Wireless Experimental Units) that carry out the task of monitoring military links of other countries.
The Central Monitoring Organisation (CMO) is directly under the Ministry of Defence. It has several monitoring companies, located at different locations around the country. Task is to monitor use of radio spectrum by all users, such as Defence, Police, AIR, Railways, PSUs etc.
Aviation Research Centre(ARC)
Aerial surveillance, SIGINT operations, photo reconnaissance flights (PHOTINT)[3], monitoring of borders, imagery intelligence (IMINT) are the main functions of the Aviation Research Centre (ARC). The aircraft are fitted with state-of-the-art electronic surveillance equipment and long range cameras capable of taking pictures of targets from very high altitudes. ARC also takes the responsibility along with the IAF to transport Special Frontier Force (SFF) commandos from their trans-location at Sarsawa, 250 km north of New Delhi, though the SFF's own base is in Chakrata in Uttarakhand (UK) state.
Directorate of Air Intelligence(DAI)
The DAI is responsible for air and satellite reconnaissance missions.
Directorate of Navy Intelligence(DNI)
This is the Indian Navys intelligence arm.
GUYS CARE TO SHED SOME LIGHT IN THIS MATTER??
especially JCB, ARC, NTRO, DIA could not find much on the net

, But we need to improve a lot and definitely not as capable as USA but i am sure we will be there soon.
