Observers say such sales abet junta war crimes and suppliers should be held accountable.
Pension funds from California, Canada and Sweden own shares in an Indian company supplying military equipment to the junta.
Bharat Electronics Limited transferred the equipment "knowing that the Myanmar military is the end user, and that it is committing ongoing war crimes and crimes against humanity with total impunity," said Justice for Myanmar.
The European Union has sanctioned only one out of 31 firms identified as suppliers of arms and equipment to the junta since the coup, says Justice for Myanmar.
NGO Justice for Myanmar has called on the European Union to sanction Myanmar military arms brokers in a recent statement.
