I'm not an expert on Mahindra tractors but don't believe you have to be because the grease is not suppose to come out of a crack, it should be going down to steering joint .

Oh man, that can't be good! I would suggest you go ahead and replace them asap, before one of them fails completely and causes more damage to other components. I would show these pics to a Mahindra rep and see what they have to say about it. I bet it's something they've already seen before, and if so, getting them to admit it might be hard to do.

Is that where two castings or forgings are pressed together? The "cracks" look very regular to be a break, esp on both sides. Definitely check with the dealer svc dept. it's wrong in any case. How old is the machine?
