What tractors run on

Vahan splits a segment by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so this table covers full-year 2025 rather than FY 2024-25 alone — it is exact for that window.

Diesel accounts for 99.97% of tractor registrations over full-year 2025, with battery-electric at 0.0%.

Tractor sales by financial year

Across the 2 completed windows in our Vahan record, tractor registrations went from 8,98,913 in FY 2024-25 to 10,67,324 in FY 2025-26, up 18.7% over the stretch.

FY 2026-27 is still running — 6 of its 12 months are counted — so it is a part window and is never set against a full one. Its year-on-year figure compares only the months it actually holds.

Retail. Every figure is a vehicle registration recorded on the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard — the same source FADA uses — not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. Registrations reach Vahan a few days after the sale, so recent months keep rising slightly for a while after they close.

Every figure is a vehicle registration, taken daily from the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways' Vahan 4 dashboard (vahan.parivahan.gov.in) — the same source FADA and the industry use for retail data. Registrations are not the wholesale dispatch numbers manufacturers announce each month. "EV" means battery electric (Vahan fuels PURE EV and ELECTRIC(BOV)); hybrids are counted separately.
