Mohali: Swaraj Tractors, a proud member of the Mahindra Group and one of India’s most trusted tractor brands, today marked a landmark achievement with the roll-out of its 25th lakh tractor from its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Mohali, Punjab. This milestone, achieved just three years after the company celebrated the 20-lakh mark in 2022, reflects Swaraj’s position as the fastest-growing tractor brand in India’s domestic tractor industry.
A Journey Rooted in Self-Reliance
Swaraj’s story is deeply intertwined with the spirit of India’s Green Revolution. The brand was born in 1974, when it launched its first model, the Swaraj 724 in the 20–25 HP category. This was India’s first indigenously designed and manufactured tractor — a product built for Indian farmers, by Indian engineers, at a time when the nation was striving for food security and agricultural self-reliance.
The choice of name, “Swaraj,” meaning independence, was itself symbolic of the brand’s mission: to offer rugged, reliable, and affordable solutions that would empower Indian farmers. Over the decades, the company has remained committed to this ethos, constantly innovating while staying rooted in its values of trust, simplicity, and dependability.
From 5 Lakh to 25 Lakh: A Story of Scale and Growth
Swaraj crossed its 5-lakh production milestone in 2002. Since then, in just 23 years, production has increased fivefold, taking the company to an extraordinary 25-lakh milestone in 2025. This rapid growth highlights Swaraj’s consistent expansion, strong presence in rural markets, and its deep connect with generations of Indian farmers.
The journey from the early rugged models to today’s technologically advanced tractors reflects not only product innovation but also Swaraj’s ability to understand and respond to farmers’ evolving needs. From the small farmer buying his very first Swaraj to families passing the brand loyalty across generations, the company has become an inseparable part of rural India’s progress.
Diverse Product Portfolio for Evolving Farmer Needs
Swaraj’s portfolio today comprises a wide spectrum of tractors catering to different farm sizes, soil conditions, and crop patterns. Some of its most iconic models include the Swaraj 855, 735, 744, 960, 742, 963, the modern Swaraj Target, and the recently launched Naya Swaraj range, which introduces lightweight, fuel-efficient solutions for emerging farming segments.
The company has maintained a balance between simplicity and sophistication — offering tractors that are rugged and easy to maintain, while also introducing features that enhance productivity and efficiency for modern-day farming.
Voices from Leadership: Trust and Transformation
Speaking on the milestone, Mr. Veejay Nakra, President – Farm Equipment Business, M&M Ltd., said:
“Swaraj’s 25 lakh production milestone reflects the trust that generations of farmers have placed in the brand. Born from India’s spirit of self-reliance, Swaraj continues to empower farmers, reinforcing our commitment to transform farming and enrich lives.”
Adding to this, Mr. Gaganjot Singh, CEO – Swaraj Division, M&M Ltd., said:
“For us at Swaraj, each tractor is more than just a machine; it is a partner in the farmer’s progress, offering reliable performance, low operating cost, and tailor-made solutions. Our deep connect with the farming community comes from understanding their aspirations, challenges, and way of life. Achieving the 25-lakh mark is a proud moment for our entire team and an inspiration to further support Indian farmers in their journey towards prosperity.”
Farmers at the Heart of Swaraj’s Success
The success of Swaraj Tractors is not just a business story; it is a social and cultural one. In villages across India, Swaraj tractors are not merely machines — they are symbols of pride, self-reliance, and progress. Farmers often associate the brand with milestones in their own lives, from buying their first Swaraj to upgrading to newer models as their prosperity grows.
The deep emotional connect with the farming community has been central to the brand’s growth. Unlike many global brands, Swaraj is not just a product but a trusted partner in the farmer’s journey — a relationship built on reliability, affordability, and understanding of rural realities.
Looking Ahead: Driving India’s Farm Mechanization
India continues to see rising demand for farm mechanization, driven by factors like labor shortages, rising productivity needs, and aspirations for higher incomes among farmers. Swaraj’s milestone reflects its readiness to meet this growing demand with products that blend tradition and innovation.
As India strengthens its agricultural economy and strives for food security, Swaraj aims to play an even greater role. With a track record of trust and innovation, the brand is well-positioned to lead the next wave of transformation in Indian agriculture.
Conclusion
The 25-lakh production milestone is more than a number; it is a celebration of strength, scale, and resilience. It embodies Swaraj’s enduring trust among farmers, its contribution to India’s self-reliance in agriculture, and its commitment to supporting the dreams of rural India.
From the early days of the Green Revolution to today’s era of advanced mechanization, Swaraj has stood steadfast as a true companion of the farmer. As it looks toward the future, the brand promises to continue empowering India’s agricultural backbone, enriching lives, and driving progress for decades to come.
