However looking at the overall budget proposals including planned spend on infrastructure and social reforms, we expect positive sentiments going forward. Further, with an expected revision in lending rates in the RBI policy in early April, the industry should see better times ahead. At Mahindra we are happy with our performance in Exports and the HCV segment where we have seen good growth.”
