Shares of Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) surged over 11 per cent on Wednesday to touch a 52-week high of Rs 709.80 per share.

The stock price rose after the company on Tuesday said it will manufacture its new tractor series 'K2' at its Zaheerabad facility in Telangana. As per the company, 'K2' series will bring incremental investments of Rs 100 crore into the Zaheerabad facility and double employment in the tractor plant by 2024.
