Tractor Sales Surge
The company's Agri Machinery Business Division sold 11,374 tractors in March 2025, marking a significant 15.00% increase compared to 9,888 units sold in the same month last year. This growth was primarily driven by strong domestic demand, with domestic tractor sales reaching 10,775 units, up 15.20% from 9,355 units in March 2024.
Factors Driving Growth
Several factors contributed to this robust performance:
- Chaitra Navratri Festival: The commencement of the Chaitra Navratri festival in March boosted demand in Escorts Kubota's strong markets.
- Favorable Agricultural Conditions: Initial forecasts of a normal South-West monsoon, increased Rabi sowing, and good water reservoir levels have created a positive outlook for the agricultural sector.
- Export Performance: Tractor exports also showed improvement, with 599 units sold in March 2025, representing a 12.40% increase from the previous year.
Construction Equipment Faces Challenges
While the tractor segment flourished, the Construction Equipment Business Division experienced a setback. In March 2025, the division sold 614 machines, down from 734 machines in March 2024, marking a 16.30% decrease.
The company attributes this decline to short-term challenges in the construction equipment industry, primarily due to changes in emission norms that have increased costs for customers. However, Escorts Kubota remains optimistic about the sector's future, citing the government's continued focus on infrastructure development as a potential driver for growth in the fiscal year 2026.
