Swaraj is an established brand name in Punjab, Haryana, eastern Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh. Punjab Tractors manufactures tractors across six horse power (HP) ranges of 25-50. PTL recently entered the high HP tractors. Punjab Tractors Limited introduced 'Swaraj 744' in the 40-50 HP range. However, with the saturation of the markets in the North and the resultant flat growth rates prompted Punjab Tractors to venture in the South. The total dealership of the company has gone up to 326 from 260 three years ago, with the coming of new dealers from Andra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra.
