2. INDUSTRIAL SCENARIO Indian Economy Outlook

India's economic performance in FY25 has demonstrated resilience amid global uncertainties, with real GDP growth estimated between 6.3% and 6.5%. This steady growth trajectory is underpinned by robust domestic demand, strategic public investments, and a rebound in key sectors.

Deloitte's May 2025 outlook projects India's GDP growth in the range of 6.3% to 6.5% for FY25, with expectations of 6.5% to 6.7% for FY26. This optimistic forecast is attributed to tax incentives boosting consumer spending and strong domestic demand. However, potential headwinds include global trade uncertainties and the impact of international tariff regimes.

EY's assessment aligns with this outlook, projecting India's real GDP growth at 6.4% for FY25 and 6.5% for FY26. The firm emphasizes the importance of well-calibrated fiscal strategies that support human capital development while maintaining fiscal prudence to enhance long-term growth prospects.

On the supply side, the agriculture sector is projected to grow by 3.8%, bolstered by favorable monsoon conditions and enhanced productivity in horticulture, livestock, and fisheries. The industrial sector is expected to expand by 6.2%, supported by growth in construction activities and utilities. The services sector continues to be a significant contributor, maintaining its upward trajectory.

Indian Auto-Components Industry

Amid speculation about a possible 25 per cent tariff imposition on imports by the US, the Indian automotive component industry is expected to maintain a steady growth trajectory and expand by 8-10 per cent in FY26. The sector, which saw a 14 per cent growth in FY24, is projected to witness a more moderate expansion of 7-9 per cent in FY25.

Credit rating agency ICRA forecasts that this growth will be driven by strong export performance, increasing localization of electric vehicle (EV) components, and rising demand in the aftermarket.

The auto component sector will incur capital expenditure (capex) of Rs 25,000-30,000 crore in FY26, focusing on capacity expansion, localization, and technological advancements, including EV components, ICRA estimates.

Demand from domestic Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), which contribute over half of the industry’s revenue, is expected to grow, aided by premiumisation and higher value addition. The replacement market is also set to grow by 5-7 per cent in FY25 and 7-9 per cent in FY26, fuelled by an increase in vehicle age, the rising popularity of used cars, and preventive maintenance trends.

Indian Agricultural Tractor Market

The Indian agricultural tractor market is a large and growing sector, driven by the country's predominantly agrarian economy and increasing mechanization of farming practices. The market is expected to reach a value of USD 15.3 billion by 2034, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. Key factors contributing to this growth include government initiatives to boost agricultural productivity, rising rural incomes, and the increasing use of tractors for non-agricultural purposes like construction and transport.

The market is dominated by Indian OEMs like Mahindra & Mahindra Limited, TAFE, International Tractors Ltd (Sonalika), and Escorts Limited. International players like Deere & Company and CNH also have a notable presence. Government initiatives, including subsidies and support for farm mechanization, contribute to market growth.

The industry is experiencing significant capital investments in manufacturing infrastructure, reflecting confidence in the market's growth potential. Major manufacturers are expanding their production facilities to meet the growing demand and incorporate advanced manufacturing technologies. In March 2024, Sonalika Tractors invested in two new plants in Hoshiarpur, Punjab, including a tractor assembly facility and a high-pressure foundry plant. Similarly, Escorts Kubota Ltd announced plans to invest approximately Rs 4,500 crore in a new manufacturing plant in Rajasthan, aiming to double their domestic tractor production capacity to 3.4 lakh units annually. These investments underscore the industry's commitment to enhancing production capabilities and maintaining technological leadership in the global market.

Agricultural Tractors Market Outlooks

Industry poised to farm significant growth in CY2025. Having closed CY2024 with a strong performance in December (99,292 units, up 25.7% YoY), the Indian tractor industry has entered CY2025 on a bullish note. According to Hemant Sikka, President - Farm Equipment Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra, “Sentiments have remained positive in December on account of positive cash flow momentum from the kharif harvest. Additionally, favorable reservoir levels have resulted in strong sowing for the rabi season, further bolstering

demand for tractors. Looking ahead, the tractor industry is poised for significant growth, underpinned by positive agricultural sentiments and favorable terms of trade for farmers.”

FADA too is optimistic about growth this year and states that dealers across vehicle categories sense resurgence in market confidence, fuelled by improved rural liquidity, evolving government policies and a wave of new product launches. Despite financing headwinds and heightened competition, many retailers believe that focused marketing strategies, robust supply chains and better alignment with customer preferences will create a foundation for sustained expansion.
