“The OJA tractor range introduces a paradigm shift in Indian agriculture. With 4WD (four-wheel drive) capabilities as standard, pioneering automation controls amplify precision and performance across the range. Reducing operator effort and elevating farm productivity enables us to further embrace fast-growing segments like horticulture and grape farming to redefine mechanized farming," said Vikram Wagh, CEO-Farm Division at Mahindra & Mahindra. 

"Featuring three advanced technology packs – PROJA, MYOJA, and ROBOJA – we proudly present OJA as India's global innovation. OJA will be exclusively made in Zaheerabad, our youngest tractor manufacturing facility. The range will be available for customers in India starting October," he said. 

Mahindra Tractors said the OJA 2127 is launched at a price of Rs 5,64,500 (Pune), and the OJA 3140 at Rs 7,35,000.
