Greater Noida - CNH Industrial., an agricultural machinery manufacturer, reported a 42% year-on-year increase in domestic tractor sales during H1 2026, reaching 30,248 units and outperforming the overall Indian tractor market, which grew by around 25% during the period.
The company, which operates the New Holland and Case IH brands in India, also exported 6,666 tractors, up around 20% year-on-year. The US accounts for nearly 30% of CNH India’s export mix, while Europe and other global markets remain important destinations.
CNH India attributed its strong performance to favourable monsoon conditions, GST reduction, a wider dealer network, financing support from CNH Capital and an expanding technology-focused tractor portfolio.
The company is now preparing to establish its fourth manufacturing facility near Greater Noida. CNH India has received 100 acres from the Yamuna Expressway Authority for the new plant, which is expected to begin operations in early 2028.
The facility will manufacture tractors for domestic and export markets and is expected to increase annual production capacity to around 120,000 units from the current 70,000 units. The existing plant produced about 59,000 tractors in 2025.
CNH India also plans to launch a new 25–30 HP compact tractor in the second half of 2028 for India, the US and Europe. The product will strengthen the company’s presence in lower-horsepower tractor segments.
With higher production capacity, an expanding tractor portfolio and increased focus on mechanisation, CNH India is positioning itself for a larger role in both the domestic and export tractor markets.
