Under the MoU, the customer has committed an initial investment of approximately Rs 20 crore for tooling and development, with sampling and testing planned for 2027. The binding supply contract will commence in 2028 with the delivery of approved components. Annual revenues are expected to be approximately Rs 95 crore based on minimum committed volumes, with a peak potential of Rs 160 crore per year, contingent on the customer’s equipment sales.

This order will be executed through HFL’s upcoming heavy forging facility, which is being developed as part of a Board-approved capital expenditure plan of Rs 650 crore sanctioned in January 2025. These new capabilities will position Happy Forgings among the select manufacturers capable of producing heavy forged and precision-machined components exceeding 250 kilograms.

Ashish Garg, managing director of Happy Forgings, said: “We are pleased to announce our first MoU in the heavy forged and precision machined components segment for parts exceeding 250 kg with a leading global manufacturer. This agreement provides strong visibility for the deployment of our new heavy forging capacity upon commissioning. It also reinforces our engineering expertise and positions HFL to pursue additional large-scale, heavyweight component opportunities across various industrial sectors. Expanding into this high-value segment aligns with our long-term strategy to diversify our portfolio, drive profitability, and create lasting value for our stakeholders.”

Happy Forgings is principally engaged in the manufacturing of forgings and related components.
