BEML secures Rs 590 crore order from defence ministry

State-owned BEML on Tuesday announced securing a new order worth Rs 590 crore for the supply of trawl assemblies to the Indian Army. In this regard, a formal contract agreement was signed between senior officials of the Ministry of Defence and BEML Ltd in the national capital on Tuesday, the company said in a statement.
“In a significant boost to India’s defence preparedness and indigenous manufacturing capabilities, the Ministry of Defence, Government of India, has awarded a Rs 590 crore contract to BEML Limited for the supply of trawl assemblies for deployment on the Indian Army’s T-72 and T-90 tanks,” the statement said.
Equipped with multi-layered clearing mechanisms, these trawl systems will significantly enhance the operational effectiveness of the armed forces in combat zones by creating safe passage, thereby enhancing the mobility, survivability, and operational momentum of mechanised forces and offering a decisive advantage in modern battlefield environments, BEML said.
This cost-effective and technologically advanced solution will also strengthen India’s position as a key player in the global anti-mine equipment market, it said.
BEML CMD Shantanu Roy said, “The collaboration with DRDO reflects the strength of India’s defence R&D ecosystem, and this order reinforces our steadfast commitment to the government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative and our resolve to equip the nation’s armed forces with reliable, high-quality, and indigenously developed solutions.”
