Canistered Missile Launchers for MR-SAM Developed - To Replace IAF's S-125 Neva/Pechora Missiles

Hey buddy can you please make a list of all the SAM systems that India have because some time it gets regarding the number of Defence systems we have... Like yesterday only I got to know that we have Sterla-10M3...
So from what I know India so far has the following systems:
1. Akash
2. Sterla
3. Shilka ( Being upgraded by BEL)
4. Tunguska
5. SPYDER
6. S-300( Rumored)
7. Barack -8 (Under Development)
8. AAD
9. PAD
10. Maitri (Planned / Revived again)
11. 4K51 'Rubezh'/SS-C-3 'Styx' (For Coastal defence)
12. 40 MM L70 ( Upgraded) ### Can't classify it as SAM but still an anti-aircraft gun
13. S-125M Neva/Pechora
Now these are the systems that I know are with or under development by India... I don't know much about coastal battery systems can you please add them to this list and any other system that I may have missed...

4K51 'Rubezh'/SS-C-3 'Styx' is not a SAM .... it's an AShM .

Wonder why we don't buy S400 and offer funds to jointly develop S500 for mass production till we master SAM systems . When all the countries across the world showing huge interest in the system . I think we were offered the joint development for s400 but UPA rejected it .
Same goes for strategic bombers .UPA rejected it . I mean what's wrong with us ? We don't believe in long range Sam systems ?

3. Shilka ( Being upgraded by BEL)

Indian Army has received its first of the upgraded Schilka air defence weapon systems from Bharat Electronics Ltd. Deliveries ongoing.

Army gets first BEL-upgraded air defence system - The Hindu

6. S-300( Rumored)

We don't have it yet - is we did then probably it would have been unveiled at one of the Republic Day Parades. India is pretty transparent when it comes to such defence procurements unlike our neighbors.

11. 4K51 'Rubezh'/SS-C-3 'Styx' (For Coastal defence)

Indian Navy has deployed P-15's on its warships which are essentially anti-ship missiles - India is still to have the ground based variant "4K51 'Rubezh".

You missed out -

(01) Prithvi Defence Vehicle or PDV which is intended to replace the existing PAD in the PAD/AAD combination
(02) 9K33 Osa - 6x6 amphibious Surface-to-air missile system
(03) S-75 Dvina - Strategic SAM system
(04) MANPADS including SA-16 Gimlet, SA-7 Grail, FIM-92 Stinger (Planned), SA-14 Gremlin, SA-18 Grouse.
(05) Kub (SA-6 Gainful) - being replaced by Akash SAM
