Tractors defy rain concerns as Q1 sales jump 19%

Chennai: Despite concerns over a deficient monsoon in several parts of the country, demand for tractors has remained resilient. Domestic tractor sales recorded strong double-digit growth in June on both a year-on-year and sequential basis. The robust performance also lifted first-quarter volumes, which rose 19% year-on-year, indicating that demand for farm mechanisation has so far remained largely insulated from weather-related uncertainties.Total domestic tractor sales grew 12% to 1,26,041 units in June from 1,12,677 units in June 2025 according to TMA data.
