Tata Group plans to achieve $100 billion in revenue from automotive divisions by 2031 after business split

Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles (TMPVL) has presented an ambitious plan to scale its passenger vehicle business tenfold by the fiscal year 2031. According to the plan, the company aims for annual sales exceeding 1.2 million vehicles, with electric vehicles (EVs) accounting for over 30 percent of total sales, and EBITDA margins reaching double-digit figures.

Company's Long-Term Growth Strategy

As part of its long-term growth strategy, TMPVL also plans to introduce six new models and conduct more than 20 updates to existing products. At the 81st Annual General Meeting (AGM), Chairman N Chandrasekaran noted that the separation of passenger and commercial vehicle businesses marks the beginning of a new phase for the company as a focused player in personal mobility, operating in India and in conjunction with Jaguar Land Rover (JLR).

Progress Over Recent Years

Speaking about the company's evolution over the last six years, Chandrasekaran reported that passenger vehicle sales in the country have increased nearly fivefold since the fiscal year 2020, while revenue has grown almost sixfold. During the same period, the company increased its market share from 4.8 percent to 14.2 percent in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027, becoming the second-largest passenger vehicle manufacturer in the country.

Financial Results and Development

In fiscal year 2026, the company achieved record passenger vehicle sales in the country—around 642,000 units, which is 15.3 percent higher than the previous year and nearly double the industry growth rate. Revenue from the Indian business increased by 20.7 percent, reaching a record 58,465 crore rupees, while the company maintained an EBITDA margin of about 7 percent and ended the year with a net cash reserve of 6,710 crore rupees.

Technology and Future Collaboration

Chandrasekaran emphasized that the company's multi-engine strategy continues to drive growth in the gasoline, compressed natural gas (CNG), and electric vehicle segments. During the year, Tata Motors expanded its portfolio with models such as Sierra, Harrier.ev, the updated Punch lineup, gasoline versions of Harrier and Safari, and the new Altroz model. The company also delivered 300,000 electric vehicles, maintaining its lead in the Indian EV market for the seventh consecutive year.

Looking ahead, Chandrasekaran stated plans to launch six new models and implement over 20 updates by fiscal year 2031, alongside increasing investments in digital technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), safety, and customer experience. He added that closer collaboration between TMPVL and JLR, including operations at the Panapakkam facility in Tamil Nadu, will help strengthen the company's manufacturing and technological capabilities in achieving long-term growth.
