BEML Secures ₹185.65 Cr Ministry of Defence Order for 79 PAT Bulldozers.
Bharat Earth Movers Ltd (BEML), a leading Indian public sector undertaking, has received a substantial order worth ₹185.65 crore from the Ministry of Defence (MoD). The contract is for the supply of 79 units of BEML's flagship Power Angling & Tilting (PAT) Bulldozers.
This significant win underscores the Ministry's continued confidence in BEML's manufacturing capabilities and comes as a repeat order, following the successful and timely execution of a previous contract for 66 such bulldozers.
Shantanu Roy, Chairman & Managing Director of BEML Ltd., expressed his gratitude, stating, "We are privileged to receive this repeat order from the Ministry of Defence, which reflects the continued trust in BEML’s capabilities and execution excellence."
The PAT Bulldozers are known for their versatility, capable of moving in six directions (up, down, left, right, and tilting forward or backward), making them ideal for a wide range of tasks including grading, land clearing, working on slopes, and road construction, especially in challenging terrains. This order further strengthens BEML's role in supporting India's self-reliance in defence manufacturing and contributing to critical infrastructure and snow-clearing operations along the nation's borders.
