And it only feels like yesterday!!! @anandmahindra

[anand mahindra @anandmahindra]

Some headlines feel like a downshift into memory.

As India’s first and only Moto3 constructor, @MahindraRacing experienced standing on the grid and on the podium.

First podium — Malaysia 2013.

First GP win — Assen 2016

And at the 2016 Moto3 Czech Republic Grand Prix in Brno (Czech Republic), Mahindra Racing achieved a historic 1-2 finish, with John McPhee winning the race on a Peugeot-badged Mahindra machine and Jorge Martin finishing second on an Aspar Mahindra

More enduring than results was the privilege of building the machines and being the team in which future World Champions earned their spurs: Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia, Brad Binder, Jorge Martín & Albert Arenas.

India had first welcomed MotoGP in 2023. Here’s hoping the throttle opens again. We will be cheering.

We shifted focus to Formula E in 2017 but even off the moto grid, we’ll always retain proud memories of having been India’s torchbearer in this sport

@anandmahindra @MahindraRise Thank you for your very kind words @anandmahindra We shall strive to keep upping the pace!

[Mufaddal A. Choonia @mchoonia]

Doffing my hat to the phenomenal effort of our team at Mahindra Ideal Finance, Sri Lanka to help us post the best ever H1 (Apr to Sept) business nos in our history. Total Income up 47%. Loan Book up 84%. PBT up 204%. PAT up 374%. Keep it up folks!! @anandmahindra @RebelloRaul

[Mufaddal A. Choonia @mchoonia]

And we @MahindraIdeal look to play an active part in providing easy leasing solutions for the owners of these vehicles, which tourists can then hire to self drive and visit some attractive locations across the beautiful island country of Sri Lanka.

[anand mahindra @anandmahindra]

Sri Lankan tourists can now enjoy the convenience of self-driving Mahindra Treos, thanks to a collaboration between @tuktukrental and our channel partners, #EvolutionAuto. A new way to experience the island.

Powered by Mahindra.

The global potential of electric 3 wheelers is vast. Even in European countries, where they can serve as city-centre shuttles. Yes, with futuristic new designs of course!

And India can dominate this market as it grows….

[Mufaddal A. Choonia @mchoonia]

Wishing all my fellow countrywomen and men, a Very Happy 79th Independence Day. May the coming years usher in a new era of progress, growth and happiness for our country and for all Indians around the world. Jai Hind 🫡 @MahindraIdeal

Delighted to inaugurate @MahindraIdeal Finance’s 36th branch in Sri Lanka in Warakapola. We now have a presence in this very important town with great business potential. Best wishes to the branch team. MIFL’s footprint across the island is growing! @anandmahindra @RebelloRaul

[Simon Patterson @denkmit]

The impact that Mahindra made on MotoGP is completely disproportionate to their relatively small presence here. Proof that passion makes crazy things happen.

[Mufaddal A. Choonia @mchoonia]

And what a legacy it has been. The last three (2022, 2023 & 2024) @MotoGP World Championship crowns rest on ex @MahindraRise #Moto3 factory riders. They made our team proud. They made Mahindra proud. They made India proud. And I hope they will continue to do so…@anandmahindra

[Mufaddal A. Choonia @mchoonia]

When @88jorgemartin was crowed 2024 @MotoGP World Champion I couldn’t help but reflect on 2016 when he & @PeccoBagnaia were teammates at the MahindraAspar team & gave us a string of victories. Delighted the @MahindraRise legacy is thriving in @MotoGP even today @anandmahindra 1/2
