The decision to initiate this benchmarking exercise was taken based on the recommendations made by the high-power committee on Public Undertakings as part of HAL’s continuous improvement and modernization efforts.
The selection process is being conducted through a transparent and competitive methodology on the Government of India’s GEM Portal in compliance with all applicable procurement guidelines. The process is currently ongoing.
HAL reiterates that no official award of work has been made so far, and any information suggesting otherwise is premature and incorrect. HAL remains committed to upholding transparency and fairness in all its procurement actions.
