For all tractors manufactured by companies in India , they have claimed HP as e.g. 45 but as per VAHAN portal it will be 40. PTO HP is different not related to this. Upto 5 HP difference will be there in all tractor models. Why it is so and can all farmers file a complaint in Consumer Forum against this. Which department is answerable to this difference. One case is in Consumer Forum now.

Quick Summary

Many Indian tractor manufacturers advertise a higher horsepower (HP) than what's officially registered on the VAHAN portal, often with a difference of up to 5 HP. This discussion explores the reasons behind this discrepancy, questioning if farmers can file complaints and which government departments are responsible. It also touches upon homologation and suggests using the RTI Act to seek clarification from the MVD.
