One of the first tractor manufacturers in India is HMT Tractor. Incorporated in 1953, HMT Tractor—short for Hindustan Machine Tools Tractor—is a government-owned business. It also produces tractors that are strong, fuel-effective, and suitable for use in agriculture. Long-lasting, fuel-efficient agricultural tractors are a specialty of HMT Tractors. HMT is a well-known manufacturer of consumer items as well as heavy defence equipment for the Indian Navy because it is a government-owned business.
