New Jewar Tractor Plant to Generate 1,200 Direct Jobs
CNH Industrial invests ₹1,219 crore in a 100-acre tractor plant in Jewar, Uttar Pradesh, targeting 100,000 annual units at full capacity and around 1,200 direct jobs.
Global agricultural equipment manufacturer CNH Industrial is setting up a new tractor manufacturing facility in Jewar, Uttar Pradesh, with a proposed investment of ₹1,219 crore. The greenfield project, located in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) region, is expected to generate approximately 1,200 direct jobs and strengthen India's agricultural machinery manufacturing capacity.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath virtually participated in the foundation stone ceremony on November 12, 2026. The facility will be developed across 100 acres in Sector 8D of the YEIDA industrial area. The project is expected to create additional indirect employment through supplier networks, logistics operations, component manufacturing and other supporting services.

The plant will be developed in phases and is expected to have an annual production capacity of 100,000 tractors at full scale. The first phase is scheduled to become operational by mid-2028. The facility will manufacture tractors for domestic customers as well as international markets, expanding CNH's production capabilities in India.
The company plans to integrate advanced manufacturing technologies, including robotics, automation and artificial intelligence-powered quality control systems. It will also incorporate sustainability measures such as renewable energy use, water recycling, green logistics and waste recovery. These initiatives are intended to improve production efficiency while supporting more sustainable manufacturing operations.
The investment is part of CNH's broader strategy to expand its manufacturing and technology presence in India. The new facility will complement the company's existing operations in Greater Noida, where it manufactures tractors and engines, and Pune, which produces agricultural harvesting equipment, including balers, combine harvesters and sugarcane harvesters.
With the additional production capacity, CNH's combined annual tractor manufacturing capability in India is expected to reach approximately 170,000 units. The company also plans to strengthen its export operations, with international markets expected to account for around 25% of its combined tractor production capacity. Its existing export network serves approximately 80 countries.

The facility adds to Uttar Pradesh's efforts to establish the Jewar region as a manufacturing and logistics hub. Alongside semiconductor, electronics, medical device and data centre projects, the tractor plant is expected to contribute to industrial investment, employment generation and agricultural machinery production in the state.
