Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd.(BHEL)In the post independence era when India was moving
towards Industrialization, the major thrust of the Government was in the core sector ie; the public sector.
With this objective, Heavy Electrical (I) Limited was set up in Bhopal in August 1956 with a view to reach self sufficiency in Industrial products and power equipments. This plant was set up under technical collaboration of M/s AEI, U.K.
Three more plants were subsequently set up at Tiruchy, Hyderabad and Haridwar with Soviet and Czechoslovakian assistance in May 1965, Dec 1965 and Jan 1967 respectively.
As there was a need for an integrated approach for the development of power equipment to be manufactured in India, Heavy Electrical Ltd. Bhopal was merged into BHEL in 1974.
Continued..BHEL is the largest engineering and
manufacturing enterprise in India in the energy related/infrastructure sector, today. The company has been earning profits continuously since 1971-72 and paying dividends since 1976-77.
BHEL manufactures over 180 products under 30 major product groups and caters to core sectors of the Indian economy viz. Power Generation and Transmission, Industry, Transportation, Telecommunication, Renewable Energy, etc.

Swot analysis of BHELStrengths:The company has 180 products under 30 major product
groups cater to the needs of the core sector like power, industry, transmission, transportation, defense, telecommunications and, oil business.
BHEL ability to acquire modern technology and make it suitable to Indian conditions has been an exceptional strength of the company.
Weaknesses:PSU status is a big weakness for BHEL as it is subject to
their rules and regulations and is forced to carry a huge amount of labor force, which it is not able to retrench.
The company offers very stringent credit facilities to the customers and this is a weakness when compared in the face of rising competition.
On the other hand the customers in the power segment, SEBs, have a huge amount of receivables standing against their name in the company’s balance sheet.
Continued…Opportunities:NTPC is planning additional capacities to the tune of
2800MW,at a cost of Rs 52 bn.The business of modernization and renovations of
power plants is expected to grow in India.Joint venture with Siemens in the name of Power
Plant Performance Improvement Ltd (PPIL) is a major strength for the company.
Threats:The global trend of consolidation has already
resulted in a fall in turnover of the company and this will prove to be a major threat in the years to come, as well.
Recently, the government has permitted its import of second hand capital goods that are 10 years old without a license. This move will definitely increase competitive pressures for BHEL.
