Indian Navy and BEML Ltd.

In a significant move toward enhancing the indigenization of critical marine engineering equipment, BEML Ltd., a premier defense and heavy engineering manufacturer, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Indian Navy. The agreement, finalized on August 20, 2024, at the Naval Headquarters in New Delhi, marks a key development in strengthening domestic capabilities.

The MoU was signed by Rear Admiral K. Srinivas, ACOM(D&R) of the Indian Navy, and Shri Ajit Kumar Srivastav, Director of Defence at BEML. This collaboration is set to bolster the indigenous design, development, manufacture, testing, and support of essential marine engineering equipment and systems.

This partnership aligns with the Government of India’s Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative, aimed at boosting self-reliance in defense production and decreasing reliance on foreign original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
