Commenting on the performance, Hemant Sikka, President - Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. said, “We have sold 29,817 tractors in the domestic market during March 2021 with a growth of 122% over last year. Impact of lower base coupled with continued positive sentiments driven by healthy reservoir levels, higher MSP and increased liquidity, have led to strong wholesale growth in March. Tractor demand is expected to remain strong as Rabi harvesting is progressing well along with the onset of sowing of summer crops in select markets. In the exports market, we have sold 1,153 tractors, a growth of 491% over last year.”
