SI. Particulars Disclosures

1 Impact on DefenceBusiness

. BEL is a Defence Public Sector Undertaking and itsmajor customers are Indian Defence Services.

. Majority of Units of BEL were in complete lockdownfrom 24th March 2020, as per the Gol guidelines.Some of the Units were partially working, related toCOVID-19 Supplies in healthcare segment, duringthe lockdown period, exercising all precautions. Thelockdown has affected the operations of theCompany during end March 2020, April 2020 andpartially in the month of May 2020.

. There are reports that predict a reduction in

Defence Budgets, temporary hold on new Capitalacquisitions and more focus on committed liabilities,

hold on Line of Credits to Friendly Countries etc.However, BEL, with a strong order book, isconfident that it will be able to cope up with theproduction gaps due to COVID impact and post ahealthy performance during the year.

2 Estimation of the

future impact ofCoVID-19 on its

operations

. BEL has undertaken a detailed study, on the

possible impact of COVID-19 on Company'soperations including the financial parameters.

. The internal study and analysis predict that on shortterm, the COVID-19 may impact the companyoperations in terms of delivery schedules, however,on a long term basis, it is likely to have a less

impact on the Company's operations andperformance. BEL is also putting efforts to minimisethe impact of migrant labour issues, which ishindering the timelines of Capital Expansionprojects.

. For the year 2019-20, with respect to the guidancepertaining to achievement of sales turnover of Rs.

13000 Crores, BEL has completed the production ofmore than Rs 13000 Crores. However due to Covid-

19 lock down situation in the last week of March

2020, Customers could not inspect some of the

produced items. Some of the items dispatched fromBEL, could not reach the customer destination dueto restrictions imposed on the Movement of Goods.Hence, BEL could register sales in excess of Rs.12500 Crores (provisional & un-audited) for thefinancial year 2019-20.

. Enhanced focus of the Government of India on Self

reliance, is likely to boost the company'

s prospects

as an leading indigenous solution provider indefence sector and will have a favourable impact on

the Company,s performance in the coming years.

Details of impact of

CoVID-19 -SupplyChain

. BEL has a large vendor base / supply chain partnersin India / abroad consisting of several Industries,OEMs, MSMEs, etc.

impact the operations of the supply chain partnersboth in India and abroad and their deliveries are

likely to get disrupted / delayed in the short term.The real impact of the Supply chain disruption islikely to be known in the next 2-3 months, on theCompany's delivery timelines and operations.However, BEL is closely monitoring the situationand is in touch with the Supply Chain partners and

assisting them wherever possible, to ensure that theproduction targets / end customer delivery timelinesof BEL are met.

Details of impact ofCoVID-19: Demand

for BEL,s

Products/Services

Defence being the major revenue segment of BEL;BEL does not foresee any fall in the demand for its

products / services due to COVID impact on a longterm basis, though there may be a lull in orderacquisition in the short term. Though deliverytimelines for some of the contracts may be

extended with the customer consent, there will not

be any significant impact and BEL is well positionedto fulfil its obligations and existing contracts withthe customers.
