Farmers looking for Mahindra tractors under ₹5 lakh can consider the YUVRAJ 215 NXT, YUVRAJ 215 NXT NT, JIVO 225 DI, JIVO 225 DI 4WD and JIVO 225 DI 4WD NT. These models fall within the budget based on indicative 2026 ex-showroom listings, although actual prices can change by location and applicable charges.
The right choice depends on whether the tractor is needed for smaller holdings, intercultural work, orchards, regular tillage or operations where 4WD is useful.

Price ranges above are indicative ex-showroom figures from current 2026 listings. Mahindra advises buyers to check the latest local quotation because tractor pricing can vary by state, taxes, insurance and other location-related factors.
1. Mahindra YUVRAJ 215 NXT
The YUVRAJ 215 NXT sits at the lower end of this budget range and is designed for compact farm operations. It comes with a 20 HP single-cylinder engine, 48 Nm maximum torque and a rated engine speed of 2300 r/min.
The tractor uses a sliding-mesh transmission with 6 forward and 3 reverse gears, along with a 2WD layout and 778 kg hydraulic lifting capacity. Its compact size can make it suitable for inter-row cultivation, spraying and other lighter farm tasks where manoeuvrability matters.
Farmers comparing a tractor for such work can assess it against their field width, crop spacing and regular operating needs. Indicative 2026 ex-showroom listings place it at around ₹3.10-₹3.29 lakh.
2. Mahindra YUVRAJ 215 NXT NT
The YUVRAJ 215 NXT NT follows a similar power setup but comes with a narrower track designed for intercultural operations. It has a 20 HP single-cylinder engine with 48 Nm maximum torque, along with 6 forward and 3 reverse gears.
The tractor uses a 2WD layout, mechanical steering and offers a 778 kg hydraulic lifting capacity. Its narrow-track configuration can be useful where crop rows provide limited operating space and tractor width becomes an important consideration.
The model is suited to tasks such as cultivation, rotavating and spraying. Current market listings place its indicative ex-showroom price at approximately ₹3.10-₹3.50 lakh.
3. Mahindra JIVO 225 DI
The JIVO 225 DI offers a compact setup with a 20 HP two-cylinder engine, 66.5 Nm maximum torque and a rated engine speed of 2300 r/min. It uses a 2WD layout with power steering, an 8-forward and 4-reverse sliding-mesh gearbox, a 750 kg hydraulic lifting capacity and 540/750 rpm PTO speeds.
The wider gear choice can be useful for work that involves changing operating speeds across tillage, haulage and implement-based tasks.
Farmers checking the current price of the tractor should compare the latest local quotation, as the final amount can vary by location and applicable charges. Current independent listings place the JIVO 225 DI at roughly ₹4.32–₹4.53 lakh ex-showroom.
4. Mahindra JIVO 225 DI 4WD
The JIVO 225 DI 4WD retains the compact 20 HP setup of the 2WD version but adds four-wheel drive for work where traction and control may matter more.
It comes with a two-cylinder engine, sliding-mesh transmission, 8 forward and 4 reverse gears, power steering, a 750 kg hydraulic lifting capacity and 18.4 HP PTO power.
This configuration can be useful where field conditions require better grip or more controlled movement.
The choice between the 2WD and 4WD versions should therefore depend on terrain, soil condition and regular farm use rather than engine power alone. Indicative 2026 ex-showroom pricing is around ₹4.63-₹4.78 lakh.
5. Mahindra JIVO 225 DI 4WD NT
The JIVO 225 DI 4WD NT combines a 20 HP two-cylinder engine with four-wheel drive and a narrow-track layout, making it relevant for intercultural work where both traction and limited working width matter.
It offers 66.5 Nm maximum torque, 8 forward and 4 reverse gears, power steering, a 750 kg hydraulic lifting capacity and 18.4 HP PTO power.
The narrow-track configuration helps distinguish it from the regular 4WD version, particularly on farms with closely spaced crop rows where manoeuvrability is important. Current 2026 listings place its indicative ex-showroom price at approximately ₹4.63-₹4.78 lakh.
Which One Fits Which Requirement?
The five tractors serve slightly different needs even though they share the same budget bracket.
| Requirement | Model to Consider |
| Lower-budget compact farm work | YUVRAJ 215 NXT |
| Narrow intercultural operations | YUVRAJ 215 NXT NT |
| Compact 2WD with more gear choices | JIVO 225 DI |
| Compact work with 4WD | JIVO 225 DI 4WD |
| Narrow-row work with 4WD | JIVO 225 DI 4WD NT |
The table should be treated as a selection guide rather than a universal recommendation. Soil, implements, field width and regular workload should remain part of the decision.
Conclusion
The Mahindra YUVRAJ 215 NXT, YUVRAJ 215 NXT NT, JIVO 225 DI, JIVO 225 DI 4WD and JIVO 225 DI 4WD NT are five current options whose indicative ex-showroom prices fall below ₹5 lakh in recent listings.
The YUVRAJ models focus on compact, lower-power work, while the JIVO 225 DI range adds more power, gear choices and 4WD options. Before buying, compare the exact specifications with your field and implementation requirements and confirm the latest price from an authorised dealership, since local on-road costs can differ.
