BKR Prasad: We expect the industry to post double-digit growth

Speaking on the key products on display during bauma CONEXPO, BKR Prasad, Head- Marketing & Product Development, Tata Hitachi Construction Machinery, said, “This year, bauma CONEXPO is happening with the theme ‘The future of nation building’ and we are very keen to showcase our readiness in building the India of tomorrow. We will be displaying our versatile, CEV IV-compliant backhoe loader model Shinrai Prime, our newly- launched, indigenously-developed, NextGen 3-tonne mini excavator model NX30 along with some of our mid-range construction excavators. Also, on display will be parts, attachments, and solutions offered by us.”

He added, “The construction equipment industry rapidly recovered through FY2021-22 despite the Covid-19 second wave-induced lockdowns in Q1 of the year. However, the backhoe loader segment witnessed significant de-growth due to the impact of emission norm change last year.”
