State-owned BEML reported a narrowed net loss in the June quarter alongside boosted revenues and a doubling of order inflows, signalling a robust operational turnaround for the engineering and defence giant.
State-owned BEML narrowed its consolidated net loss in the June quarter as higher income and a sharp rise in order inflows pointed to a firmer operating backdrop for the defence and engineering group.
The company said in an exchange filing on Friday that it posted a net loss of ₹27.01 crore for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared with a loss of ₹64.11 crore in the same period a year earlier. Total income rose to ₹821.19 crore from ₹642.56 crore, reflecting stronger revenue generation during the period.
BEML also reported fresh orders worth ₹1,181 crore in the quarter, more than double the ₹435 crore booked a year earlier. Its order book stood at ₹16,284 crore at the end of June, a level the company said gives it strong visibility on future revenue.
Shantanu Roy, the chairman and managing director, said the quarter reflected the strength of the business and progress in BEML’s transformation efforts, with a focus on execution, operational efficiency and technology-led innovation. BEML supplies India’s power, infrastructure, rail, metro, defence, aerospace and mining sectors, and its update comes as other state-backed industrial firms have also reported stronger demand, with Bharat Heavy Electricals recently swinging to profit on improved execution in its power business.
