Escorts Kubota, a company known for manufacturing farm and construction equipment, has announced ambitious plans for expansion. The company intends to invest a significant sum of Rs 4,500 crore over the course of the next three to four years to establish a new manufacturing plant.
In pursuit of this expansion, Escorts Kubota is currently in discussions with the government of Rajasthan to secure a suitable site in Ghiloth. This location has been assigned for the construction of a state-of-the-art greenfield plant. The primary objective of this attempt is to build up the production capacity of domestic tractors, aiming to nearly double the current annual production to 3.4 lakh units. Additionally, phased production of new engines and components is on the agenda, along with the installation of advanced equipment lines.
Bharat Madan, the full-time director and CFO of Escorts Kubota Ltd, provided insight into the company's vision. He emphasized, "We envision a greenfield plant that will significantly enhance our manufacturing capabilities. Doubling the tractor production capacity, introducing new engine lines, and setting up construction equipment lines are pivotal to our strategic growth. The entire greenfield project is estimated to cost between Rs 4,000 crore to Rs 4,500 crore over the next three to four years."
The company is assured to initiate the process by acquiring suitable land this fiscal year, with estimated costs ranging from Rs 40 crore to Rs 450 crore. Construction is slated to commence by the end of the financial year. Presently, Escorts Kubota boasts an annual tractor production capacity of 1 lakh units at its primary facility in Faridabad. Moreover, it manufactures 1.5 lakh engines annually, predominantly through imports.
As part of its strategic planning, Escorts Kubota has reserved approximately Rs 300 crore for general capital expenditure in the upcoming fiscal year. Regarding tractor sales outlook for FY2025, Madan indicated a cautious stance, citing expectations of "mid-single digit growth." He anticipates a subdued performance in the first quarter, with growth momentum likely to gain traction in the latter half of the fiscal year, particularly post-September, contingent upon favorable monsoon patterns.
Escorts Kubota is assured of maintaining its upward trajectory in the market, with a steadfast commitment to outperforming the sector and expanding its market share. Building on the successes of the previous fiscal year, the company remains resolute in its pursuit of growth and innovation within the farm and construction equipment industry.
