BEML bags defence order worth Rs 293.82 crore for supply of HMV 6×6 vehicles
BEML Limited has announced that it has secured a fresh order worth approximately ₹293.82 crore from the Ministry of Defence for the supply of High Mobility Vehicles (HMV) 6X6. The disclosure was made pursuant to Regulation 30 read with Schedule III of SEBI (LODR) Regulations, 2015. This new contract strengthens BEML's position as a key defence equipment supplier, highlighting its capability to deliver advanced, indigenous mobility solutions for the armed forces under the government's 'Make in India' initiative. Notably, on July 18, BEML had also announced a separate order worth ₹185.65 crore from the Ministry of Defence (E-in-C) for the supply of bulldozers. That earlier order, which was made in the normal course of business, further deepened the company's long-standing relationship with the Ministry and added to its already strong defence-focused order pipeline. While the bulldozer order is unrelated to the latest HMV contract, both reinforce BEML's critical role in supporting India's defence infrastructure through consistent and high-quality equipment deliveries.
