The Amalgamations Group entered the tractor
business in 1960. Simpson Company was already
making Perkins Diesel Engines and the founder
chairman of the group, Mr.Anantharamakrishnan's
own great interest in agriculture and the Green
Revolution in making, made the group grab the
opportunity to make tractors when it presented
itself. Standard Motor Products of India Limited
had been assembling Massey Ferguson tractors in
India for Massey Ferguson India, which was a
Bangalore based company handling the entire MF
business in India. Massey Ferguson was looking
for a company that would, in a phased manner,
manufacture its tractors in India and successful
negotiations with The Amalgamations Group lead to
the group taking over the Bangalore operations
and moving it to Chennai, then Madras. The new
company was called Tractors and Farm Equipment
Limited.
