Tata Motors

Tata Motors recorded a sharp 35% year-on-year increase in total vehicle sales in February, reflecting strong demand across both passenger and commercial vehicle segments. The growth underscores sustained consumer appetite for SUVs and electric vehicles, alongside improving activity in infrastructure-linked commercial transport. The automaker’s diversified portfolio and enhanced production stability contributed to the robust monthly performance.

Tata Motors has released its first-ever Tax Transparency Report, revealing that the company made global tax and related contributions amounting to Rs 38,892 crore in FY25—a slight dip from the Rs 39,344 crore recorded the previous fiscal year. Despite a modest decline in direct tax contributions, indirect contributions surged by 31%. The report offers rare insight into the automotive major’s fiscal responsibility, showcasing a balanced tax strategy and sustained profitability. While net profit decreased by 11.5% to Rs 28,149 crore, total revenue rose marginally to Rs 4,39,695 crore.

Tata Motors projects a conservative low single-digit growth in passenger vehicle sales for the fiscal year 2025-26, aligning with industry expectations. The company is pinning its hopes on reviving its premium hatchback segment, particularly through the launch of the all-new Altroz, priced between Rs 6.89 lakh and Rs 11.29 lakh. Despite shelving plans for an electric Altroz due to market saturation in the Rs 8-15 lakh EV segment, Tata remains optimistic about growth in mid and premium hatchbacks.

Tata Motors is poised to launch its most advanced and premium electric vehicle to date—the Tata Harrier EV—on June 3, 2025. Showcased earlier at the Bharat Mobility Expo, the production-ready electric SUV is set to become a cornerstone in Tata’s next-generation EV lineup. With an expected range of 500 kilometers, dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD), and features such as vehicle-to-load (V2L), vehicle-to-everything (V2X), and an autonomous parking system, the Harrier EV is designed to compete aggressively in the mid-premium electric SUV segment. Projected to be priced between Rs.

Following a robust rally that pushed benchmark indices to seven-month highs, Indian equity markets experienced a moderate correction on Friday, driven primarily by profit-taking in IT stocks and Bharti Airtel. The BSE Sensex fell 200 points, while the NSE Nifty declined by 42 points, as investors locked in gains. Sectoral divergence was notable, with select large-cap stocks retreating even as mid and small-cap indices sustained upward momentum. Global market cues were mixed, with Asian markets mostly subdued and European bourses trading higher.

Tata Motors has entered a strategic partnership with Vertelo, an electric mobility solutions provider, to expand the adoption of electric commercial vehicles (ECVs) in India. Through a newly signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), the two firms aim to offer customized and flexible leasing solutions tailored to Tata Motors’ entire ECV lineup. This initiative is designed to support fleet operators in transitioning to cleaner transport alternatives, thus strengthening India’s electric vehicle ecosystem.

Tata Motors, one of India’s leading automotive manufacturers, has announced a record-breaking year for innovation, filing 250 patents and 148 design applications in fiscal year 2024–25 (FY25)—its highest ever in a single financial year. The filings reflect a strategic emphasis on automotive megatrends, including connectivity, electrification, sustainability, and safety. The company also made strides in hydrogen-based technologies and fuel cell development.

Tata Motors, through its luxury vehicle unit Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), is currently assessing how to navigate the new 25% tariff on imported vehicles imposed by the United States as of April 2025. JLR, which is deeply entrenched in the U.S. market, has temporarily paused its vehicle shipments from the UK to the U.S. to address the revised tariff structure. While the company explores various solutions, the impact of this tariff on its operations and long-term strategy remains a key concern.

Tata Motors, one of India's leading automotive companies, has recently reported a 3% decline in its group global wholesales for the fourth quarter of FY25, reaching a total of 366,177 units. This decline, when compared to the same period last year, reflects a challenging market environment for both Tata Motors' passenger vehicles, including electric vehicles (EVs), and its commercial vehicle segment.

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), the luxury vehicle arm of Tata Motors, reported a 1.1 percent increase in dispatches to dealers during the fourth quarter of FY25, amounting to 1,11,413 units.

JLR's retail sales showed a slight decline of 5.1 percent year-on-year, reflecting broader market dynamics.
