Building Safer, Smarter, and Scalable Rental Solutions

Established in 1974, Mtandt Group has evolved into a trusted name in infrastructure and industrial safety solutions. With over five decades of legacy, our rentals division plays a critical role in empowering infrastructure growth across India. We provide a wide array of high-performance equipment for work-at-height and material handling, including boom lifts, scissor lifts, vertical lifts, telehandlers, and access platforms, catering to sectors such as construction, oil & gas, power, and manufacturing. Over 60% of our fleet is less than three years old, reinforcing our commitment to modernity and safety.

Trends Shaping the Rental Equipment Industry

The construction and infrastructure landscape is undergoing a profound transformation. Over the past 3–4 years, the rental model has seen exponential growth. At Mtandt, we are forecasting 100% growth in the upcoming financial year, driven by demand from mega infrastructure projects and increased focus on safe work-at-height practices. The transition to hybrid and battery-operated machines—which we showcased at bauma—is a key trend, signaling a shift towards sustainability.

Addressing Industry Challenges Proactively

The sector continues to grapple with several operational hurdles:

•    Delayed payment realization,

•    Shortage of skilled manpower, and

•    GST liabilities despite deferred collections.

To tackle this, Mtandt is heavily investing in skill development, operational excellence, and financial planning. We are also training engineers at OEM facilities abroad to ensure global standards in service delivery.

Technology as a Differentiator

Technological integration is central to our growth. We are upgrading our fleet in alignment with the latest EN safety standards and leveraging telematics for real-time equipment monitoring. Our digital-first maintenance systems and operator training programs minimize breakdowns and improve uptime, thus ensuring our clients experience both safety and productivity on every site.

Prioritizing Customer Experience

At Mtandt Rentals, customer satisfaction is not just a goal—it’s a practice. Our rental offering includes full-service support, operator training, proactive safety checks, and a zero-compromise attitude on quality. Operators are trained to pause operations if safety is compromised on-site. This level of ownership ensures long-term client trust and retention.

Embedding Sustainability in Our Operations

We believe that sustainability and scale must go hand in hand. From adopting hybrid access equipment to reducing fuel-intensive machinery, our rental fleet is transitioning towards cleaner, energy-efficient alternatives. Our hybrid lifts showcased at bauma are already being deployed across Indian job sites. These initiatives not only reduce emissions but also lower total cost of ownership for clients.

Vision for the Future and Strategic Scale-Up

Mtandt is preparing for the next decade with a clear blueprint. We aim to double our rental capacity by adding high-value assets and expanding service infrastructure across India. With India’s industrial growth expected to accelerate, we’re positioning ourselves as the partner of choice in the equipment rental ecosystem. However, capital intensity remains a hurdle—many machines cost over a crore. We currently rely on bank funding, but high-interest rates challenge sustainability. We advocate for policy-level support and financial incentives from the government to ease funding access for capital equipment and promote the rental model.
