Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) is a Navratna Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) under the Ministry of Defence, Government of India. Founded in 1954, BEL is a premier Indian company operating primarily in the aerospace and defence electronics sector. As of April 1, 2025, BEL's order book stood at ₹71,650 crore, indicating a strong pipeline of projects. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025 (Q4 FY25), the company recorded revenue from operations of ₹9,149.59 crore. For the full financial year 2024-25, BEL's revenue from operations was ₹23,768.75 crore. BEL plays a crucial role in advancing India's indigenous defence capabilities and is recognized as a significant manufacturer of advanced electronic products and systems for the nation's armed forces.
Bharat Electronics Limited is primarily engaged in the design, development, manufacture, supply, installation, and support of a wide array of strategic electronic products and systems. Its core operational activities cater extensively to the needs of the Indian defence services (Army, Navy, and Air Force) as well as select civilian and paramilitary forces. The company's operations span several key domains including radar and weapon systems, communication systems, electronic warfare suites, electro-optics, naval systems, and homeland security solutions. BEL's business model is centered on undertaking large-scale defence electronics projects and providing lifecycle support for its systems. While defence is its primary focus, the non-defence business constituted approximately 6-7% of its revenue in the fiscal year 2025. Export orders represented about 10% of BEL's total order book as of April 1, 2025.
Radar and Weapon Systems
BEL designs, develops, and manufactures a comprehensive range of radar systems for surveillance, tracking, and fire control, along with associated weapon systems. These are critical for air defence, naval, and land-based applications. As of April 1, 2025, its order book included systems like the Arudhra radar and Long-Range Surface-to-Air Missile (LRSAM) systems.
Communication Systems
The company provides a variety of advanced communication solutions for defence and paramilitary forces. This includes secure communication networks, tactical communication systems, and satellite communication equipment. For instance, recent orders post-May 16, 2025, included shipborne composite communication systems.
Electronic Warfare Systems
BEL is a key supplier of electronic warfare (EW) systems designed for intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, and self-protection for airborne, naval, and ground-based platforms. Products in this category include jammers, which were part of new orders received after May 16, 2025.
Electro-Optics
The company manufactures a range of electro-optical equipment, including night vision devices, thermal imagers, and laser-based systems, enhancing the operational capabilities of the armed forces during day and night.
Naval Systems
BEL develops and supplies sophisticated electronic systems for naval platforms, such as sonar systems, fire control systems, and integrated anti-submarine warfare systems. The order book as of April 1, 2025, includes systems for the Next Generation Corvette (NGC) Program.
Homeland Security Solutions
Leveraging its expertise in defence electronics, BEL also offers solutions for homeland security, including smart city components, border surveillance systems, and secure communication for civil authorities.
Other Defence Solutions
BEL's portfolio also includes simulators for training, test rigs, critical software upgrades, and systems like the Himshakti project, Akashteer project, Integrated Air Command and Control System (IACCS), and Make in India Drones & UAVs Systems, as reflected in its order book as of April 1, 2025.
Bharat Electronics Limited is poised for continued growth, with significant plans for capacity expansion and new project acquisitions. The company plans to invest more than ₹10,000 million annually in capital expenditure in the coming years to set up new manufacturing facilities at strategic locations across India; its capital expenditure for the fiscal year 2025 was over ₹9,000 million. For the fiscal year 2026, BEL anticipates fresh order inflows of approximately ₹27,000 crore. This projection excludes a major potential order for the Quick Reaction Surface-to-Air Missile (QRSAM) system, which is valued at an estimated ₹30,000 crore and is expected to be finalized around the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026. If this QRSAM order materializes within the year, the company's new order acquisitions could significantly increase. BEL is also targeting other large orders, including a deal worth ₹6,000 crore to ₹10,000 crore for supplying major subsystems for Corvette ships to defence shipyards, and additional requirements for Light Combat Aircraft (LCA) systems. The company continues to focus on strengthening indigenous defence capabilities and timely execution of its robust order book.

BEL share price today stands at ₹417.65, Open: ₹423.95, Previous Close: ₹422, High: ₹424, Low: ₹416.5, 52 Week High: ₹436, 52 Week Low: ₹240.25.
Today's traded volume of BEL is 1.50Cr. Which means that 1.50Cr shares of BEL were bought and sold on the stock market during today's trading session.
Today's market capitalisation of BEL is ₹3,08,472.67 Cr. Market cap or market capitalisation is the total value of a company’s outstanding shares in the stock market, calculated by multiplying the current share price by the total number of shares issued by the company.
BEL’s 52 week high is ₹436 and 52 week low is ₹240.25. The current share price of BEL is ₹417.65, which is -4.21% down from its 52 week high and 73.84% up from its 52 week low.
As of July 9, 2025, BEL's share price is trading at ₹421.15, a decrease of -2.44% from its previous close. This decline is likely attributable to short-term profit-booking by investors following a period of significant gains. This type of correction is common after a strong rally. Even with positive news, such as a new contract with the Indian Navy announced around July 8, 2025, the stock can face selling pressure as investors decide to realize their profits from the recent run-up in price.
Fundamentally, the company remains strong. For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, BEL reported a Total Revenue of ₹9,150 crore and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹2,121 crore. Key metrics include a Return on Equity (ROE) of 27.1% for FY24 and a P/E (TTM) ratio of 57.29 as of July 2025. Analyst sentiment is positive, with 83.33% of 24 analysts recommending a 'BUY' rating. However, the high valuation is a key risk, with the average analyst target price at ₹416.08, suggesting limited immediate upside from the current price.
Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) is considered effectively debt-free. For the financial year ending March 31, 2025, the company reported a Debt-to-Equity ratio of 0.00, indicating that its operations are financed by its own funds rather than external borrowings. This strong balance sheet is a key indicator of its financial health, providing significant flexibility for future investments and growth without the burden of interest payments.
This robust financial position is supported by strong operational performance. For the fiscal year 2024-2025, BEL reported a consolidated Total Revenue of ₹20,268 crore and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹3,943 crore. The company's Return on Equity (ROE) for the same period was a healthy 27.1%, highlighting its efficiency in generating profits from shareholder investments and reinforcing its stable financial standing.
On the last trading day, July 8, 2025, Bharat Electronics Ltd (BEL)'s share price closed at ₹422, an increase of 1.17% from the previous day's close of ₹417.10. The consistent upward trend in the stock is largely attributed to its strong strategic position in India's defence sector and a robust, growing order book, which stood at ₹71,650 crore as of April 1, 2025. Recent news, including a significant contract with the Indian Navy announced on July 8, 2025, and other new orders, has further bolstered investor confidence in the company's revenue visibility and long-term growth prospects.
This positive sentiment is supported by strong financial performance. For the full fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, BEL reported a Total Revenue of ₹20,268 crore and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹3,943 crore. The company maintains a healthy Return on Equity (ROE) of 27.1% for the same period. Analyst ratings are overwhelmingly positive, with 83.33% of 24 analysts recommending a 'BUY' as of July 2025. However, a key risk for potential investors is the stock's high valuation, reflected in a P/E (TTM) ratio of 57.29, with the average analyst target price of ₹416.08 suggesting limited immediate upside.
Bharat Electronics Ltd. (BEL) shows a promising future, underpinned by its strong financial performance and strategic position in India's defence sector. For the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025, BEL reported a total revenue of ₹20,268 crore and a Profit After Tax (PAT) of ₹3,943 crore. The company's fundamentals are solid, with a Return on Equity (ROE) of 27.1% for FY25. As of July 8, 2025, the share price closed at ₹422, a 1.17% increase from the previous day's close of ₹417.10.
The company's growth is supported by a massive order book valued at ₹71,650 crore as of April 1, 2025, which provides strong revenue visibility. Analyst sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with 83.33% of 24 analysts recommending a 'BUY' rating as of July 2025. However, investors should consider the risks, as the stock's valuation is high with a P/E (TTM) ratio of 57.29 as of July 2025. The average analyst target price is ₹416.08, suggesting the market has priced in much of the positive outlook. The key strength is its dominant market position, while the primary risk is its high valuation.
