Bharat Forge to Invest ₹240 Crore in Subsidiary KSSL
Bharat Forge Limited approved an investment not exceeding ₹2,400 million (₹240 crore) in its wholly-owned subsidiary, Kalyani Strategic Systems Limited (KSSL). The investment aims to support KSSL's defense business operations. The transaction will be completed by March 31, 2027. KSSL's FY26 turnover was ₹1,224.47 crore.
The investment amount is significant for the subsidiary, indicating a strategic focus on the defense sector. However, it is an internal capital allocation rather than an acquisition of a new entity, thus having a medium impact.
The investment in a wholly-owned subsidiary to support its business operations is a positive development for the company's growth in the defense sector.
