CNH Unveils First Made-in-India Compact Tractor

Noida – CNH Industrial N.V., an agricultural machinery manufacturer, has previewed its first Made-in-India compact tractor, reinforcing India’s role as a hub for manufacturing, technology, and exports.

India is among CNH’s fastest-growing markets, and the company has outlined four priorities: expanding localized manufacturing for domestic and global markets, strengthening India as a global R&D hub, growing market share through localized products, and leveraging Indian engineering expertise for cost-efficient solutions.

With three plants in Greater Noida, Pune, and Pithampur, CNH produces tractors, harvesters, balers, rakes, engines, compactors, loader backhoes, and excavators. Its nationwide dealer network ensures sales and service coverage across agriculture and construction equipment.

Mr. Gerrit Marx, CEO of CNH, said, “India is a cornerstone of the company’s global growth strategy, while Narinder Mittal, President and Managing Director, India, highlighted the company’s investments in manufacturing, technology, and sourcing under the government’s “Make in India” vision.”
