BEML CMD Deepak Kumar Hota said, “PPP model is the way forward to meet the growing demands of the defence industry. With the vast experience and expertise in the defence sector of BEML and L&T, I am confident that together we can address the needs of the Indian defence market as well as explore export markets of various systems of mutual interest.”

Whole-time director (defence) and member of L&T Board Jayant D Patil said, “This pact paves the way for PPP partnership between the two industry leaders. By synergising capabilities of each other in system design and integration, manufacturing and marketing, the companies look forward to enhancing product range, evolve new products and improve business prospects.”
