Mahindra and Mahindra Limited [Automotive and Farm Equipment Business]

What Mahindra and Mahindra Limited [Automotive and Farm Equipment Business] does

Mahindra and Mahindra Limited's Automotive and Farm Equipment Business is the flagship operating division of the publicly listed Mahindra Group, founded in 1945 and headquartered in Mumbai, India. The division operates two principal business pillars: Automotive, encompassing SUVs, electric vehicles, light commercial vehicles, heavy commercial vehicles, and last-mile mobility solutions; and Farm Equipment, producing tractors and a growing portfolio of agricultural machinery and solutions. It serves a diversified customer base including individual farmers, fleet owners and transporters, government and public sector undertakings, defence establishments, dealers, and corporate accounts, supported by approximately 20,310 employees and seven manufacturing facilities located in Pune (Chakan), Nashik, Chennai, Mohali, Zaheerabad, Haridwar, and Nagpur.

The business model combines unit sales of vehicles, tractors, and agricultural machinery through an extensive Indian dealer network with parallel corporate, institutional, and leasing sales channels. Captive and partner financing — through Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services Limited (MMFSL), State Bank of India (SBI), and other banks and NBFCs — underwrites customer purchases. Specialized subsidiaries, including Mahindra Electric Automobile Limited (MEAL), Mahindra Last Mile Mobility Limited, and Mahindra Summit Agriscience Limited, segment distinct strategic verticals (EV, last-mile mobility, and agriservices respectively) while leveraging the parent group's brand, distribution, and manufacturing base.

Revenue is generated primarily through product sales of vehicles and farm equipment, complemented by service, parts, financing, and adjacent agriservices revenue streams. The parent is publicly listed on Indian stock exchanges, providing capital market access for ongoing operations. Active hiring across sales, sourcing, quality, finance, and HR functions, alongside the SOAR returnship talent program, signals sustained operational scaling across both automotive and farm equipment pillars.
