State-owned defence and heavy equipment manufacturer BEML Limited has secured a ₹294 crore order from the Ministry of Defence for the supply of 150 high-mobility vehicles (HMVs). The move is a major boost to indigenous defence manufacturing under the Government of India’s Make in India initiative.
The 6×6 high-mobility vehicles are designed to perform in extreme terrains, high altitudes, and adverse climatic conditions, offering exceptional reliability and versatility. The order will be primarily executed at BEML’s Palakkad and Mysore facilities, with additional support from other production divisions based on operational needs.
“This order showcases our expertise and capacity in delivering advanced indigenous products that enhance India’s defence infrastructure. It also reinforces our ongoing support for the Make in India initiative and our mission to empower the armed forces with high-quality, locally developed solutions,” said BEML CMD Shantanu Roy.
BEML operates under the Ministry of Defence and has key business verticals in defence and aerospace, rail and metro, and construction and mining. The latest order further strengthens its role in supporting India’s self-reliance in critical defence systems.
