New Delhi: Sonalika Tractors on Saturday reported its highest-ever April sales at 16,223 units, registering a robust 35.6 per cent growth and surpassing the estimated industry growth of 27 per cent, as it kicked off FY’27 on a strong note.
The company said the performance places it among the leading gainers in market share, driven by sustained demand for mechanised farming solutions and its continued focus on technology-led product offerings.
Marking its 30th year of operations, Sonalika attributed the growth to its farmer-centric approach and investments in advanced agricultural technologies aimed at enhancing productivity and improving farm incomes. The company said its expanding portfolio of performance-driven tractors is aligned with the evolving needs of farmers across diverse applications and geographies.
The strong start to the financial year comes amid steady progress in India’s agriculture sector, supported by record foodgrain production and increased mechanisation. Policy measures, including GST rate rationalisation, have also contributed to higher adoption of farm equipment, while rising expectations around efficiency and output are shaping demand trends.
Sonalika said it continues to serve over 1.9 million farmers and remains focused on strengthening its position in the rural economy through innovation and deeper engagement with its customer base. Its manufacturing operations are supported by one of the world’s largest integrated tractor plants, along with a strong research and development ecosystem.
Commenting on the performance, Raman Mittal, Joint Managing Director, International Tractors Limited, said the record April sales reflect a growing shift towards technology-driven farming.
“In our landmark 30th year, our highest-ever April performance signals a strong start to FY’27. Our growth momentum is anchored in sharper innovation and deeper farmer connect as we continue to deliver advanced solutions, including our premium Gold Series range,” he said.
Mittal added that the company remains committed to strengthening its product portfolio and expanding its reach across domestic as well as international markets, while playing a key role in advancing farm mechanisation in India.
Founded in 1996, Sonalika Tractors is among the leading tractor manufacturers in the country and is recognised as India’s top tractor export brand, with a presence in over 150 countries.
