Balu Forge has signed a 5-year legally binding MOU to supply large calibre ammunition empty shells from its Belgaum, Karnataka facility to a NATO-affiliated entity whose name is being kept confidential. The deal covers 30,000 units per month of 155 mm M107 shells and 10,000 units per month of 152 mm shells, both at USD 315 per unit on FOB Nhava Sheva terms. Total annual revenue potential is approximately USD 151 million (over ₹1,250 crore) at full scale. Payment terms include a 20% advance with the balance via irrevocable Letter of Credit. Supplies will begin from April 2026 in a phased manner. The company stated that current capacity of 360,000 units per annum is insufficient and expansion will be funded through internal accruals. The product range is expected to be extended to 105 mm, 120 mm, and 81 mm variants later.
This is a transformational order that could more than double Balu Forge's revenue base and firmly establish it in the defence consumables space. Near-term stock sentiment is likely very positive given the scale, NATO association, and 5-year visibility. Key risk is execution — significant capacity expansion is required and the buyer's identity remains undisclosed.
