BEML Secures Rs 184.25 Crore HAL Order for Light Combat Helicopter Components
BEML has secured a Rs 184.25 crore order from Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) to manufacture and supply fuselage aerostructures for the Light Combat Helicopter (LCH). This contract enhances BEML's role in aerospace manufacturing and supports India's domestic defence production by promoting local components and engineering. While BEML's Q4 FY26 net profit declined 37.46%, its revenue grew 8.57% year-on-year. The order reflects cooperation between two public sector defence companies and aligns with government efforts to reduce defence imports.
