Heavier monsoon rainfall is likely to help drive growth at Mahindra & Mahindra Financial Services Ltd., which provides loans for tractors, utility vehicles and other equipment.

“The monsoon fortunately turned out to be better after a delayed start,” Chief Financial Officer V Ravi said in a phone interview. The Mumbai-based company sees its loan growth increasing to 10%-12% in October-March from about 3% in the first half of the fiscal year that began April 1.
