Diwali is a season of new beginnings across India, and for lakhs of farmers, it is also the perfect time to invest in new agricultural equipment. Among the most important tools in modern farming is the tractor — a machine that symbolizes growth, efficiency, and prosperity.
Every year, leading tractor manufacturers and dealerships launch exclusive festive offers, making Diwali one of the best times to buy. In 2025, these offers are more attractive than ever, with better financing, exchange bonuses, and insurance benefits. But besides these discounts, ongoing discussions at the policy level about reducing costs on essential farming tools are making tractors even more affordable.
Let us take a closer look at current tractor pricing, how the on-road cost is calculated, and what buyers should expect this festive season.
Brands like Mahindra, Swaraj, John Deere, New Holland, and Sonalika continue to dominate the segment, offering models for every budget and field requirement.
While these are the base prices shown by manufacturers, they do not reflect the total cost a buyer has to pay. For that, we need to consider the on-road pricing.
Understanding On-Road Tractor Price
When you walk into a dealership, you might see a tractor priced at ₹6 lakh. However, when you receive the final bill, the amount may be closer to ₹7 lakh or more. This is because the on-road price includes several additional charges that are mandatory.
The on-road price typically includes:
-
Base price of the tractor (manufacturer’s price)
-
Registration charges at the Regional Transport Office
-
Road permit fees (if applicable)
-
Insurance charges (which vary by model and location)
-
Delivery and handling charges by the dealer
In some states, farmers may receive concessions or subsidies on registration or insurance, particularly during the Diwali season. It is always advisable to ask your dealer for a complete breakdown of the on-road cost before making a decision.
