The Bharatiya fleet was divided into three separate battle groups, each designed to operate as a self-sufficient fighting force.
In every battle group, 14 Delhi-class battleships formed the main force, acting as the main defensive wall, similar to heavy infantry in a conventional war. Positioned at the very front were two Ramachandra-class battleships, serving as the spearhead of the formation and leading the charge. On both flanks, two Ayutthya-class battleships guarded the sides, protecting logistics ships and smaller vessels from surprise attacks.
Supporting the heavier ships were lighter combat vessels. Each battle group included 48 Colombo-class Clippers and Chennai-class Frigates, which sailed alongside the battleships to strengthen defensive coverage and provide additional firepower whenever needed. These ships helped fill gaps in the formation and reacted quickly to sudden threats.
