- Bharat Madan, Whole-time Director & CFO, Escorts Kubota
Escorts Kubota CFO Bharat Madan stated that volume growth remains the company's key priority over pricing. In exports, Europe accounts for 60% of shipments and is undergoing channel inventory corrections, with revival expected by March or April. The company also plans to expand into North America towards the end of FY28. For the construction equipment segment, full-year volume growth is projected to be high double digits despite commodity cost headwinds. Existing tractor capacity of 1,70,000 units can be expanded to 1,85,000-1,90,000 units to meet demand before the greenfield project commissions.
