The demerger was to specify the value of its core business – manufacturing heavy equipment like earth movers and defence equipment – and fixed assets separately, which would clear the way for privatisation.

As per the demerger proposal, BEML shareholders will receive shares in BEML Land Assets Ltd in the 1:1 ratio.

The expectation is that the disinvestment process will begin now that the demerged entity is listed.
