This performance reflects steady execution and the continued strengthening of Balu Forge’s integrated manufacturing platform. The greenfield facility at Hattargi, Karnataka, is advancing as planned and remains central to our ongoing expansion. The plant integrates captive forging and precision machining under one setup, improving efficiency and output. Commissioning of the 25-ton closed-die forging hammer, 8,000-ton mechanical press, and automated machining lines is progressing on schedule. When fully operational, total forging and machining capacities will increase to 150,000 tons and 80,000 tons per year, respectively. The defence division remains a key focus. The dedicated forging and machining line for Empty Shell production, with a capacity of 360,000 shells per year is in the commercialization phase. The company has vendor approvals from leading Indian defence players and continues to add new products across artillery, armoured vehicle and engine components, strengthening its role in India’s defence manufacturing ecosystem. We continue to focus on disciplined execution and capacity readiness as we scale operations across forging and machining. The Hattargi facility will strengthen our fully integrated manufacturing base and improve our ability to serve complex, high-value applications. With defence production entering the commercialization stage and capacity expansion on track, Balu Forge is positioned to drive the next phase of growth through scale, technology, and customer diversification.
