What tractors run on

Vahan splits a segment by fuel only across a whole calendar year, so this table covers 2026 year to date rather than Q4 FY 2025-26 alone — it is exact for that window.

Diesel accounts for 99.96% of tractor registrations over 2026 year to date, with battery-electric at 0.0%.

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.
