COMPANY PROFILE:

Subject is a US$ 1 Billion tractor major incorporated in 1960 at Chennai in India, in collaboration with Massey Ferguson (now owned by AGCO corporation, USA).

A member of the Amalgamations Group of Chennai, this company has four plants in India involved in tractor manufacturing at Mandidheep (Bhopal), Kallidaipatti (Madurai), Doddabalbur (Bangalore) and in Chennai and a new overseas plant in Turkey.

Apart from being among the top three tractor manufacturers in the world, Subject is also involved in making diesel engines, gears, panel instruments, engineering plastics, hydraulic pumps, plantations and passenger car distribution through other divisions and wholly owned subsidiaries.

Subject Motors and Tractors Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of company, which was set up in 2005 when TAFE acquired Eicher tractors, the Eicher engines plant at Alwar and the Eicher transmissions plant at Parwanoo. The company manufactures the Eicher brand of tractors at its plant near Bhopal at Mandidheep, diesel engines at its plant at Alwar and transmission components at Parwanoo. The Eicher brand of tractors has a distinguished heritage of 50 years in India. Known for its unique distinction of offering a range of both air and water cooled tractors, its tractors span the 20 to 60 HP segment and have been well received in this segment. Their less than 30 HP range has commanded market pre – eminence in this segment. The diesel engines from its Alwar plant find a variety of automotive, genset and industrial applications including the telecom and retail sectors. The transmission unit at Parwanno serves in house needs as well as to other OEMs including TAFE.

HISTORY:

The Amalgamations Group entered the tractor business in 1960. Simpson and Company was already making Perkins Diesel Engines and the founder Chairman, Mr. Anantharamakrishnan's own great interest in agriculture and the Green Revolution in the making, made the group grab the opportunity to make tractors when it presented itself.

Standard Motor Products of India Limited had been assembling Massey ferguson tractors in India for Massey Ferguson India, which was the Bangalore based company handling the entire MF business in India. Massey Ferguson was looking for a company that would, in a phased manner, manufacture its tractors in India and successful negotiations with the Amalgamations Group lead to the group taking over the Bangalore operations and moving it to Madras. The new company was called Tractors and Farm Equipment Limited.

On December 15th 1960 our founder Chairman, announced at a press conference at Chennai, his plans to manufacture tractors and implements at Simpson's Industrial Estate in collaboration with Massey Ferguson of Toronto. At that time, the estimated demand for tractors in India was 12000 tractors a year and company was allocated a capacity of 7000 tractors a year. Initially 50 % of the tractor was built with indigenous content but within two years this rose to 85 %. From these early beginnings, they are proud to have risen to a turnover of US $1 Billion and a sale of 100000 tractors last year apart from the distinction of being India's largest exporter of tractors in the last financial year.
