Management Comments :
PB Balaji, Group Chief Financial Officer, Tata Motors said: “The first quarter has carried forward the momentum of last year with all businesses continuing to deliver on their distinctive strategies. We are confident of sustaining the performance in the coming quarters and delivering a strong year.”

Adrian Mardell, JLR Chief Executive Officer, said: “Thanks to the hard work and commitment of our people, JLR has delivered an outstanding set of results in the first quarter, with record revenues and an increase in year-on-year quarterly profits of nearly 60 per cent. We are making great progress delivering our Reimagine strategy. Our Jaguar TCS Racing Formula E Team, pioneers in electric technology innovation, are winners of this year’s ABB FIA Formula E Team and Manufacturer’s World Championships. We are bringing the lessons learned from this success on the racetrack to our luxury electric vehicles and later this year we will unveil our first next generation luxury electric vehicle, Range Rover Electric, which has more than 41,000 customers on its waiting list.”

Girish Wagh, Executive Director Tata Motors said: “Q1 FY25 registered a positive start for the Indian commercial vehicles sector. Tata Motors recorded commercial vehicles domestic sales of 87,615 units, ~7% higher than Q1 FY24 sales. Overall positive market sentiment arising from increased economic activity, continuing infrastructure development, and growing demand of e-commerce, auto aggregates and LPG segments led to sales improving across most segments – HCV, MCV and CV Passenger. The business delivered strong EBITDA margins of 11.6% in Q1 FY25. Looking ahead, the widespread onset of monsoon, expectations of policy continuity in the forthcoming budget and thrust on infrastructure should be conducive towards improving overall demand for commercial vehicles. We will continue to drive our demand-pull strategy, step up customer engagement and improve competitiveness while closely tracking any emerging headwinds arising from interest rates, fuel prices and inflation.”

Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director TMPV and TPEM said: “The Passenger Vehicle industry in Q1 FY25 witnessed retails (registrations) moderating, impacted by the general elections and intense heat waves across the country. Tata Motors sales of 138,682 cars and SUVs was slightly lower compared to Q1 FY24, as we proactively readjusted our wholesales in line with retails to keep channel inventory under control. Our multi-powertrain strategy and strong portfolio of SUVs led to steady sales. While the personal segment retails have grown for EVs, there was a sharp decline witnessed in the fleet segment. Going forward, we expect an improvement in overall sales on the back of the onset of the festive season and the launch of Curvv, India’s first SUV Coupe.”
