Three cylinders in a 32 HP tractor is the unusual part. Most machines this size make do with two, and the third cylinder is why the 932 DI runs smoother and pulls more evenly through a rotavator pass than its rating suggests. VST keeps the whole tractor narrow, 1130 to 1190 mm depending on setting, and light at 1240 kg, which is deliberate: in a puddled paddy field with cage wheels fitted, a light tractor floats where a heavy one digs itself in. The synchromesh 9F+3R box with a double clutch gives you a proper choice of working speeds for arecanut, coconut and banana plantation work. ADDC hydraulics lift 1250 kg, brakes are oil immersed discs and the turning radius is 2500 mm. Prices run ₹5.76 lakh to ₹6.34 lakh, with a 2 year or 2000 hour warranty.

Our verdict: VST Shakti 932 DI

Verdict by the Aglist editorial desk

The 932 DI is well judged for the work it targets, and we would happily recommend it for plantation and puddling duty in Karnataka, Kerala or the North East. Being light is the feature, not a shortcoming: 1240 kg with cage wheels is what lets it work a wet field all morning without turning it into a bog. Nine forward speeds with synchromesh is generous at this size, and 1250 kg of lift is more than the Captain 250 DI manages by a wide margin. Two figures deserve scrutiny. The PTO delivers 24 HP from a 32 HP engine, which is a 75 percent conversion and the weakest ratio in this comparison, so a rotavator sized by engine horsepower will disappoint you. And the price starts at ₹5.76 lakh, which is above the 40 HP ACE DI 350 NG at ₹5.22 lakh. You are paying for narrowness and refinement rather than for output. Add that the warranty is 2 years or 2000 hours where most rivals here offer five, and the case rests on whether you truly need a narrow tractor.

VST Shakti 932 DI — Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the VST Shakti 932 DI?

The listed range is ₹5,76,000 to ₹6,34,000 ex-showroom, so ₹5.76 lakh to ₹6.34 lakh. For a 32 HP tractor that is a firm price, and it sits above some 40 HP machines. What you are paying for is the narrow body, the three-cylinder engine and the nine-speed synchromesh gearbox.

How many PTO HP does the VST Shakti 932 DI have?

24 PTO HP from a 32 HP engine. Be careful with this one. That is a 75 percent conversion, the lowest in this comparison, so any implement you buy must be sized for 24 HP at the shaft and not for the 32 on the badge. A small rotavator or a light thresher is the right match.

Is the VST Shakti 932 DI good for paddy puddling?

Yes, and it is one of the better choices here for that job. Weight is the reason. At 1240 kg with cage wheels fitted it stays on top of soft mud instead of sinking to the axle, and the oil immersed disc brakes handle wet conditions. The 2500 mm turning radius helps in small bunded plots.

What warranty does the VST Shakti 932 DI come with?

Two years or 2000 hours, whichever comes first. That is shorter than the five years or 5000 hours offered by Powertrac, Farmtrac and Kubota in this comparison, and well short of New Holland's six years. If the tractor will work long plantation seasons, ask the dealer what an extended cover would cost.
