Hemant Sikka, President – Farm Equipment sector, Mahindra & Mahindra, said, “We have sold 21,173 tractors in the domestic market during December 2020 with a growth of 23 per cent over last year. The wholesale volumes continued to be strong fuelled by restoration of channel inventory after the festive season, announcement of hike in tractor prices by major OEMs and anticipation of sustained demand thanks to higher rabi acreage, the government support in kharif procurement and rural development schemes. In the export market, we had a growth of 60% at 1,244 tractors over last year.”
