Tata Motors Chairman advocates demerger for vertical synergies


At the 79th Annual General Meeting of Tata Motors, Chairman N Chandrasekaran explained that the planned demerger of the existing automotive businesses into two listed entities aims to secure synergies across its passenger vehicle (PV) and Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) verticals, particularly in the fields of electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous vehicles. Chandrasekaran emphasized that this strategic move would enable each company to enhance customer experience, provide better growth opportunities for employees, and increase shareholder value.

Chandrasekaran stated that the demerger would facilitate significant synergies across PV, EV, and JLR, specifically in EVs, autonomous vehicles, and vehicle software. In March of this year, Tata Motors had announced its decision to separate its commercial vehicle (CV) and passenger vehicle segments into two distinct listed entities, aiming to capitalize more effectively on growth prospects.

Chandrasekaran informed shareholders that moving forward, all three businesses would prioritize strengthening their financial positions and improving customer satisfaction. He further explained that each entity would refine its strategies to align more closely with its market position, brand strength, and growth objectives.

Regarding the PV business, Chandrasekaran highlighted its focus on achieving robust growth, advancing technology, and maintaining brand leadership. He noted that the PV vertical would continue investing in products, platforms, electrical and electronic architectures, and vehicle software to sustain its competitive edge.

In terms of the EV business, Chandrasekaran outlined plans to expand market penetration through multiple product launches, enhance the charging network, and introduce innovative product features to meet consumer aspirations.
