Escorts Kubota Ltd reported a marginal rise in consolidated net profit for the fourth quarter, supported by strong growth in revenue and tractor sales. The company’s revenue from operations increased significantly during the quarter, while tractor volumes saw healthy double-digit growth. Construction equipment sales also improved on a yearly basis. For the full financial year, the company recorded a sharp jump in profit and higher revenue, driven mainly by better performance in the farm equipment business. The board has also recommended a final dividend for shareholders for FY26, subject to approval at the upcoming annual general meeting.
Farm and construction equipment manufacturer Escorts Kubota Ltd reported a slight increase in consolidated net profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

The company’s consolidated revenue from operations rose to INR 2,968.16 crore in the fourth quarter from INR 2,444.88 crore in the year-ago period, reflecting improved business performance across key segments.
Escorts Kubota recorded strong growth in tractor sales during the quarter. Tractor volumes stood at 32,257 units, registering a growth of 21.1 per cent compared to 26,633 units sold in the same quarter last year. The company has continued to benefit from steady rural demand, higher mechanisation in agriculture and improved replacement demand in several markets.
Construction equipment sales also witnessed growth during the quarter. The segment reported sales of 1,877 units compared to 1,719 units in the corresponding quarter of the previous fiscal. The company has been focusing on strengthening its product portfolio and dealer network in the construction equipment business over the past few years.
At the same time, total expenses during the quarter increased to INR 2,662.19 crore from INR 2,224.46 crore a year earlier. The rise in expenses came alongside higher operational activity and increased sales volumes.
The board of the company has recommended a final dividend of INR 33 per fully paid-up equity share with a face value of INR 10 each for FY26. This remains subject to shareholders’ approval at the upcoming annual general meeting. Including the previously announced special dividend, the total dividend for the financial year stands at INR 51 per equity share.
On a full-year basis, Escorts Kubota reported a strong rise in profitability. Consolidated net profit for FY26 stood at INR 2,394.05 crore compared to INR 1,264.95 crore in FY25. Revenue from operations for the financial year increased to INR 11,540.26 crore from INR 10,243.88 crore in the previous year.
The company’s annual tractor sales reached 1,33,670 units, marking a growth of 15.7 per cent over 1,15,554 units recorded in FY25. However, construction equipment volumes declined during the year to 5,794 units from 6,484 units in the previous financial year, indicating mixed performance across segments despite overall revenue growth.
In recent years, Escorts Kubota has focused on expanding its farm machinery portfolio and improving localisation after the integration with Japan-based Kubota. The company has also been strengthening exports and increasing its presence in mechanised farming solutions, which has helped support growth in the tractor business.
