Tata Motors Issues Official Statement In Reply To Reports About Stake Sale

The Indian automotive circle went into overdrive as there were reports circulating that Tata Motors is planning to sell up to 49 per cent stake in its domestic passenger vehicle business. Tata Motors is a renowned name, not just in our country but elsewhere too. In addition to being one of the oldest mobility brands, Tata Motors also acquired Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) from Ford for $2.3 Billion. This deal made Tata Motors a force to reckon with in the global automotive scenario.

The official statement

The statement read: “All such published news about ‘Tata Motors to sell up to 49% stake in PV Business’ and the names of potential partners/investors mentioned is incorrect and misleading. Firstly, TML is India’s foremost homegrown auto company. Its products are receiving strong customer response with its best-in-class safety, stylish design and superior driveability. Over the years, initiatives taken by Tata Motors have and will continue to strengthen India and its auto sector. In March 2020,  TML had announced the intent to subsidiaries its PV business as the first step towards securing mutually beneficial strategic alliances that provide access to products, architectures, powertrains, new-age technologies and capital.”

“Securing a mutually beneficial alliance is a priority. However, it is not imperative for today but an opportunity to be secured for tomorrow. The imperative for today is to win sustainably by delivering market-beating growth and positive free cash flows by delighting our customers with exciting products and exceptional service while continuing to drive a strong cost savings agenda.” The statement further clarified.
