Export sales for the quarter were at record high levels of Rs 484 crore.

Anant J Talulicar, Chairman & Managing Director, Cummins India, said, “The business sentiment in the country has improved and so is our optimism about economic growth based on the strong intent of the new government to put the economy back on the growth track. We have not experienced any resurgence in domestic demand yet. However, economic reforms aimed at making India a manufacturing hub, tax reforms and infrastructure investments will allow Cummins in India to grow by providing innovative power solutions and dependable services.”
