Insights from Mahindra & Mahindra's Leadership

Hemant Sikka, President – Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., shared insights on the company's performance, stating, "We have sold 20,121 tractors in the domestic market during February 2024. Southern and western states continue to face agri-stress due to irregular and lack of monsoon. However, the Rabi crop outlook is very good, with the wheat crop likely to be a healthy crop. Harvesting has started in a few states with the government supporting early procurement of wheat crops. Continued government support through various rural schemes and enhanced institutional credit will further help boost tractor demand going forward. In the export market, we have sold 1,551 tractors, a growth of 32% over last year."
