Mahindra & Mahindra’s Farm Equipment Sector (FES), part of the Mahindra Group, announced its tractor sales numbers for September 2021. Domestic sales in September 2021 were at 39053 units, as against 42361 units during September 2020. Total tractor sales (Domestic + Exports) during September 2021 were at 40331 units, as against 43386 units for the same period last year. Exports for the month stood at 1278 units.
Commenting on the performance, Hemant Sikka, President – Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra said, “We have sold 39053 tractors in the domestic market during September 2021. Strong revival in rainfall during September brought cheers to the farming community, with the entire rainfall deficit wiped off by end of September and monsoon achieving normal levels. This is a back-to-back normal or above-normal monsoon for the third year. Reservoir levels have improved and excess rainfall in September will lead to the high moisture content in the soil, leading to strong Rabi sowing. With initial crop production estimates indicating the highest ever Kharif Crop, coupled with the upcoming festive season, we are optimistic of strong demand in the coming months. In the exports market, we have sold 1278 tractors with a growth of 25 per cent over last year.”
