70%+ share of India's power tiller market gives VST pricing power and brand loyalty that buffer demand volatility; it is a near-monopoly rather than a share-taker.
South India stronghold (Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, AP, Kerala) with higher irrigation coverage and plantation-crop mix means VST's core markets absorb monsoon deficits far better than Escorts' north-heavy footprint.
Power tillers are roughly 75% of volumes and tractors only 430 units in Sept, so VST's tractor decline of 10% barely dents the headline — the portfolio is structurally insulated from tractor cyclicality.
