The deal is likely to close by June 30, 2016.
Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) has said in a regulatory filing that “The acquisition of up to 35 percent stake would be for a consideration of not exceeding 18 million euros.”
Pawan Goenka, Executive Director of M&M has said that “We are now putting in place a strategy to build a full product line of farm equipment that goes beyond tractors and with this we will compete globally in both advanced and developing markets.”
