                          Report of Independent Accountants


          To the Benefits Committee and Participants
          of the Ingersoll-Rand Company Savings and
          Stock Investment Plan


          In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the
          accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the
          financial position of the Ingersoll-Rand Company Savings and
          Stock Investment Plan at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
          results of its operations and the changes in its plan equity for
          the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
          accounting principles.  These financial statements are the
          responsibility of the Benefits Committee; our responsibility is
          to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
          audits.  We conducted our audits of these statements in
          accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
          require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
          assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
          material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
          basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
          financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used
          and significant estimates made by the Benefits Committee, and
          evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
          believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the
          opinion expressed above.

                          SAVINGS AND STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN
                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN:

          The following brief description of the Ingersoll-Rand Company
          Savings and Stock Investment Plan (plan) is for general
          information purposes.  Participants should refer to the plan
          document for more complete information.

          The Ingersoll-Rand Company (company) adopted the plan for
          eligible employees at participating locations.  Members of
          collective bargaining units may not participate in the plan. 
          Eligible employees may participate the first day of the month
          following 30 calendar days of employment.

          Participants may contribute as basic contributions one to six
          percent (in whole percentages) of their compensation through
          payroll deductions.  Participants contributing six percent of
          compensation may contribute an additional one to eight percent of
          compensation as supplemental contributions.  Only basic
          contributions receive company matching contributions. 
          Participants may use before or after-tax dollars for part or all
          of their contributions.  Contributions are subject to varying
          limitations to ensure compliance with Internal Revenue Code
          requirements.  Participants may change their contribution amounts
          at any time effective the first day of the following payroll
          period by contacting the recordkeeper through its Benefits
          Information Line (BIL).

          The plan assets are held in the Combined Investment Trust
          (Combined Trust), together with assets from other participating
          plans.

          Participants may invest their contributions, in multiples of one
          percent, in one or more of the following funds:

              o  Fixed Income Fund - A fund that invests in securities and
                 debt that produce a fixed rate of return.  Investments may
                 include United States government securities, corporate
                 bonds, notes, debentures, convertible securities,
                 preferred stocks, investment funds or investment
                 contracts.

              o  Mutual Fund - Participants may select the following
                 Fidelity Mutual Funds: Fidelity Fund, Growth and Income
                 Portfolio, U.S. Equity Index Portfolio, and Magellan Fund.

                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
                          SAVINGS AND STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN
                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



              o  Company Stock Fund - A mutual fund consisting primarily of
                 the company's common stock.  This fund limits participant
                 investment to 50% of current contributions or account
                 balance on transfers.

          Each fund reinvests its income in that fund.

          The company matches basic contributions at a rate determined
          annually by the company's board of directors.  For 1995 and 1994,
          the match was set at 50 percent of basic contributions.  The plan
          requires that company contributions be at least 25 percent, but
          no more than 100 percent of  participants' basic contributions.

          Effective October 1, 1995, the plan was amended to provide for an
          offset in the part of company match contributions under the plan
          with an equivalent benefit to the plan participants under the
          Ingersoll-Rand/Clark Leveraged Employee Stock Ownership Plan
          (LESOP).  Amounts accrued under the plan prior to the effective
          date of this amendment will remain in the plan unaffected.

          Participant contributions are always 100 percent vested.  Company
          contributions vest on a seven-year, graded-vesting schedule. 
          Employees are 20 percent vested after completing three years of
          service.  The vested percentage then increases in increments of
          20 percent per year until fully vested after seven years of
          service.  All company contributions become 100 percent vested if
          the participant's employment terminates due to disability,
          retirement or death.

          On any business day, participants may change their allocation of
          future contributions and transfer prior contributions between
          funds.  Transfers of prior contributions are in whole percentages
          or dollars (with a $250 minimum).

          Participants have several options that permit access to their
          contributions, earnings and certain vested company contributions. 
          These options are subject to certain rules and restrictions.

          Plan distributions may be in the form of a lump sum, installments
          over a maximum of five years or in such other manner that the
          Benefits Committee may permit.

          Participant accounts are kept in units and are valued on a daily
          basis.






                                          12<PAGE>



          

                                INGERSOLL-RAND COMPANY
                          SAVINGS AND STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN
                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          The Benefits Committee, appointed by the company's board of
          directors, administers the plan.  The Finance Committee of the
          company's board of directors establishes the plan's investment 
          policies.

          The company intends to continue the plan indefinitely.  However,
          the company retains the right to discontinue the plan.  If the
          company discontinues the plan, all participant account balances
          become fully vested at the termination date.


          NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

          The plan follows the accrual method of accounting.  Effective
          October 1, 1994, Chase Manhattan Bank, NA (Chase) and Coopers &
          Lybrand LLP replaced Fidelity Investment Institutional Operations
          Company as trustee and recordkeeper, respectively.  


          Use of Estimates:

          The preparation of financial statements in accordance with
          generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
          make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
          of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
          liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the
          reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
          periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


          Valuation of Investments:

          Plan assets are part of the Combined Trust, which provides
          unified investment management.  Chase invests the plan assets in
          the various Combined Trust investment funds.

          Separate participant accounts are maintained by investment fund. 
          These accounts record contributions, withdrawals, transfers,
          earnings and changes in market value.

          The insurance company guaranteed interest contracts, the Putnam
          Guaranteed Horizon Accounts and the Putnam Managed Account, are
          recorded at their respective contract value.  Contract value
          approximates current value assuming the trust holds the
          investment until maturity.  Contract value equals principal plus
          cumulative interest earned, reduced by distributions.

          The Chase Domestic Liquidity Fund contains short-term debt,
          including commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit and
          collateralized repurchase agreements.  The carrying value of

                          SAVINGS AND STOCK INVESTMENT PLAN
                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          these investments is a reasonable estimate of their current value
          due to the short-term nature of the instruments.  All investments
          are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies. 
          Repurchase agreements are secured by such instruments.

          The financial statements report investments in the Mutual Fund
          and the Company Stock Fund at current value based on published
          market quotations.

          Security Transactions and Investment Income:

          Realized gains or losses on security transactions are recorded on
          the trade date.  Realized gains or losses are the difference
          between the proceeds received and the participant's average unit
          cost.

          Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest
          income is recorded when earned.

          The statement of income and changes in plan/fund equity includes
          unrealized appreciation or depreciation in accordance with the
          policy of stating investments at current value.

          Contributions:

          Participant and company matching contributions are made to the
          Combined Trust or LESOP within five working days after the end of
          the month.  Participant contributions for each fund are based on
          the participants' investment decisions.  The company matching
          contributions are made to the Company Stock Fund in cash or
          common stock.

          Forfeitures:

          Forfeitures of nonvested company contributions occur when
          participants are terminated.  Forfeitures of $737,713 in 1995 and
          $775,550 in 1994 were used to reduce future company
          contributions.

          Expenses of the Plan:

          Most expenses for the administration of the plan and the Combined
          Trust are paid for by the company.  Expenses of the funds related
          to the investment and reinvestment of assets are included in the
          cost of the related investments.

                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          Benefit obligations:

          Employee distributions to terminated employees are recorded in
          each fund's financial statements, when paid.  The approved and
          unpaid amounts were $4,038,929 and $1,580,622 at December 31,
          1995 and 1994, respectively.  These amounts are reflected as
          liabilities on the plan's Form 5500.


          NOTE 3 - FIXED INCOME FUND:

          Investments in the Fixed Income Fund at December 31 were as
          follows:

          The Travelers Companies' group annuity contract establishes a new
          interest rate every December, when the contract renews.  The new
          rate applies to all funds held in the group annuity contract
          during the next plan year.  The interest rate was 5.95% for 1995
          and is set at 6.50% for 1996.  The contract has no final maturity
          date and ends upon written notice.

          On December 31, 1994, a $3.5 million group annuity contract with
          the Hartford Life Insurance Company matured.  The trustee
          transferred the funds to the Chase Domestic Liquidity Fund on
          January 3, 1995.

                            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


          At December 31, 1995, certain assets of the plan are invested in
          synthetic investment contracts.  The Putnam Guaranteed Horizon
          Accounts and the Putnam Managed Account consist principally of an
          investment agreement between the company and Putnam and a wrapper
          contract with a financially responsible third party which provides
          liquidity or benefit-responsiveness.

          The Putnam Guaranteed Horizon Accounts under contract at December 31,
          1995 were:

                              Average  Net Crediting
                 Amount        Yield   Interest Rate    Maturity Date

               23,924,784       5.29%      7.44%       December 22, 1997
               15,324,134       5.19%      5.93%       May 15, 1997

              $77,702,758

          The contract value of the Putnam Managed Account at December 31,
          1995 was $89,191,183.  This contract has no maturity date and
          ends upon written notice.

          The contract values of the Putnam Guaranteed Horizon Accounts and
          Putnam Managed Account approximate the current values at December
          31, 1995.

          NOTE 6 - LOAN FUND:

          The plan allows participants to borrow from their vested account
          balances subject to certain limits.  Loans are withdrawn from the
          participants' accounts in a sequence outlined in the plan.

          The Benefits Committee establishes the loan interest rate and
          reviews the rate quarterly.  In 1995, the interest rate on new
          loans was 8% during the first half of the year, and became 9%
          effective July 1, 1995.  The loan rate will be adjusted each
          quarter thereafter in order to reflect the current prime rate. 
          The interest rate on new loans in 1994 was 8%.  Interest charges
          begin 60 days after the initial loan date.

          Loans are repaid in equal installments through payroll deductions
          over a maximum of five years.  Loan repayments consist of
          interest and principal, and are reinvested according to the
          participant's current investment elections.  If a participant
          terminates employment with the company, any outstanding loan
          balance is considered a distribution.

          NOTE 7 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:

          In June 1991, a favorable determination letter was received from
          the Internal Revenue Service indicating that the plan
          documentation satisfied the requirements for tax qualification
          under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.  The trust
          established for the plan is exempt from federal income tax under
          Section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Filing for certain
          amendments is pending.  The company believes the plan complies
          with Section 401(a); therefore, the financial statements do not
          provide for income taxes.  Employees defer taxes on income
          earned, company contributions and contributions made under the
          salary deferral feature.  Taxes on employee distributions depend
          on the form and amount of such payment.

          NOTE 8 - TRANSFERS (FROM) TO OTHER PLANS:

          Transfers to (from) the Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company Savings
          and Investment Plan were $(67,817) and $212,019 in 1995 and 1994,
          respectively.  Transfers to (from) Dresser Industries were
          $(31,364) in 1995.  There were no other significant plan to plan
          transfers.
