Escorts Kubota Limited Construction Equipment Business Division in December 2025 sold 812 machines as against 873 machines sold in December 2024. Sales volume for December 2025 is not comparable to December 2024, which saw a pre-buying ahead of emission norm changes last year, however there is visible improvement in the sentiment in Dec compared to previous months. The third quarter (October-December FY26) also saw softer demand, with sales totaling 1,716 units, a 13.7% decline from 1,989 units in Q3 FY25.
For the nine-month period April-December FY26 (9M FY26), construction equipment sales stood at 3,917 units, a 17.8% decrease vs. 4,765 units in the corresponding period of FY25. Management cites seasonal softness following the monsoon season and ongoing macro headwinds in the construction equipment market as primary factors behind the muted performance.
In the short run, the Construction Equipment industry continues to face challenges from slow project mobilization, and weak rental rates & elevated costs from CEV Stage V compliance, though government infrastructure spending and fund-flow initiatives are expected to support gradual recovery into 2026.
