I've read different histories that don't all agree with one another, but they're all close. And, Great Britain and India are closely related, historically. I don't remember when the British gave up rule of India. Mahindra is an old and well established company in India. They were hired to make some U.S. military Jeeps during WWII.

All the parts I've bought in the last couple of years for my B-275 came over the counter from my local Case-IH dealer, but had the Mahindra name on the package.
