November 2024 Harvester Retail Sales Top Performer: Kartar Harvesters 

In November 2024, Kartar Harvesters had the highest sales of 159 harvesters in the Indian market, making it the market winner. The brand's success is due to its cutting-edge technology, large partner network, and excellent customer service after the sale.
