Navratna Defence Public Sector Undertaking Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) and Thales announce that the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India, has approved the incorporation of their joint venture company, BEL-THALES Systems Limited, in late August this year. This joint venture (JV) Company will primarily focus on the design, development, marketing, supply and support of civilian and select defence radars for India and the global markets. The first board meeting of BEL-THALES Systems Limited took place on Friday 26 September.
BEL holds a 74 % stake while Thales holds 26% of the equity in the JV Company. The initial product portfolio of BEL-THALES Systems Limited will comprise innovative solutions for air surveillance, including Air Traffic Management radars, and select ground-based military radars.
