Escorts Kubota Limited Reports October 2026 Sales Volumes
Escorts Kubota Limited has disclosed its sales performance for the Agri Machinery Business and Construction Equipment Business Division for October 2026. The company sold a total of 16,921 tractors in October 2026, a decrease of 10.0% compared to 18,798 tractors sold in October 2025. This moderation in domestic sales was attributed to a high base in the previous year, shifts in festive timing, and monsoon-related disruptions. Elevated input costs also pose a potential challenge to near-term demand.
Domestic and Export Tractor Sales
Domestic tractor sales in October 2026 were recorded at 16,412 units, down from 18,423 units in October 2025, representing a decline of 10.9%. In contrast, export tractor sales demonstrated robust growth, increasing by 35.7% to 509 units in October 2026, up from 375 units in the prior year’s corresponding month.
The cumulative sales for April-October (7M) of FY27 show domestic tractor sales at 84,497 units, an increase of 6.2% over 79,600 units in the same period last year. Export sales for the seven-month period were 3,303 units, a decrease of 9.7% from 3,656 units.
Construction Equipment Volume Growth
The Construction Equipment Business Division reported strong performance in October 2026, with sales of 640 machines, marking a significant growth of 41.6% compared to 452 machines sold in October 2025. The industry’s growth momentum is supported by sustained infrastructure activity and project execution. The company anticipates positive growth trajectory, although geopolitical uncertainties and input cost escalations are noted as factors to watch.
For the April-October (7M) period of FY27, the Construction Equipment Business Division sold 3,748 machines, reflecting a growth of 41.3% over 2,653 machines in the corresponding period of FY26.
