‘JLR cars to be produced at Chennai plant from early 2026'
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) cars will be produced from Chennai starting early next year for the Indian market and the plant will be fully operational by 2032, P.B. Balaji, Group CFO, Tata Motors said on Tuesday. 'As far as the Chennai plant is concerned, for JLR, we will be starting with the CKD operations and they will start from early next year and thereafter what else gets localized there,' he said while speaking at the Tata Motors Media Day in Mumbai. He said today JLR has CKD operations in Pune and over a period of time it will probably get migrate to Chennai. 'Do remember it is also a Tata Motors plant and once they [the passenger car division] steps up volume, they will require manufacturing capacity. So, that will also be in this particular location as well,' he said. 'So, all the options are there in front of us to decide what is the best way to put the Chennai plant together. And that is the reason it needs to get industrialized before 2032. And there is a lot of time available before you can get it fully tipped up,' Mr Balaji added. Mr. Balaji said that the tariff imposed by the U.S. would impact JLR's business and the company's EBITDA would drop to about 5% to 7% from the earlier projected 10%. He said once demand improves in 12 to 18 months EBITDA would rise to 10%. 'We are confident of turnaround and will deal with near term challenges,' he added. Shailesh Chandra, MD, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd. said the company had committed an investment of ₹33,000 to Rs 35,000 crore in the next five years with an ambition to capture 18% to 20% market share by 2030. He said the total product portfolio will increase from 8 currently to 15 and more focus would be given on high end SUVs. 'As far as technology future is concerned we will have high focus on ensuring that we are ahead of the curve. Software defined vehicle is one of the key focal point,' he said. 'We are investing in technologies and architecture to make our products so relevant and differentiated for the future. And at the same time, we are focusing on ensuring the network readiness for capacity and capability,' he added. According to Mr. Balaji the demerger of the Commercial Vehicles business and Passengers Vehicles was on track and it would be fully complete by November or December this year.

Better equipped to tackle supply chain woes from lessons learnt during chip crisis: Tata Motors
Tata Motors group is better equipped to deal with supply chain challenges arising from the ongoing Israel-Iran clash, China's restriction of rare earth magnet exports and global tariff war, having learnt from the semiconductor crisis during the COVID-19 pandemic, top company officials said on Tuesday. Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), the company's British arm that is facing a steep tariff hike for exports to the US, is not considering setting up a plant in America to address local demand, Tata Motors Group CFO PB Balaji told reporters during the company's media day interaction. The automotive supply chains have gone through a fair amount of shock testing with the semiconductor crisis that came in the 2022-23 period. Therefore, there are a lot of inherent learnings that businesses have got through. There are a lot of supply chain resiliencies that have been built in since then, he noted. "Internally, we are equipped to process it better. That doesn't mean we will not have a problem. It just means that we'll be able to cope with it better, and we will just have to let... (the) time play by in terms of multiple developments that are simultaneously underway," Balaji said when asked about the impact on supply chain due to war in West Asia, China's restrictions on rare earth exports and tariff war. On whether JLR plans to set up a manufacturing unit in the US to overcome the steep hike in tariffs, Balaji said, "As far as the manufacturing footprint is concerned, there are no plans at this point in time for any US site of any sort. We need to be careful that we don't overextend ourselves. We also need to ensure that whatever is done is done for the long term, and not just as a reactive mechanism for what it is today." He, however, acknowledged that there will be an impact on sales of JLR in the US due to the increased tariff. "I do expect some amount of volume shrink. It will be there, inevitably, because of the tariffs that are there. It used to be 2.5 per cent before. It is now going to be 10 per cent. So to that extent, there will be some degree of demand elasticity will be there," he said, adding that JLR sells about 1 lakh units into the US from the UK. The company will undertake market activation "to mitigate some aspect of the demand stress that could be there", Balaji said, adding that JLR would also reroute some of the demand in other parts of the world such as the UK, Europe and the Middle East, where the impact of Israel-Iran war "has not been felt very hard to see" as yet. Due to the tariff in the US, JLR will also face "a cost impact" and is putting a programme to manage it, which will "start from now and will probably take another 12 to 18 months to get this fully operationalised". To a query on whether China's restrictions on rare earth exports has had an impact on JLR production, he replied in the negative asserting "we're not pressing any panic button and there is no production curtailment" and JLR has managed through combination of inventory along with alternate sources and supplies are coming through at present. Similarly, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicle Ltd and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd Managing Director, Shailesh Chandra, said, "We are comfortable for the next few months more from a stock perspective (of rare earth)." He also asserted that Tata Motors has not changed its EV launch plans despite China's restrictions on rare earth exports. "There's a hope, and there's a set of actions which are internal that make us comfortable with not changing any of our launch plans. If there is significant deterioration of this issue going forward, then we might relook, but at this stage, we have absolutely no trigger to change our plans." Chandra said the company has already launched the and the planned launch of is on track. To overcome the challenge, he said the automotive industry has taken up the issue with the government and India's ambassador in China to sort out the issue. "Frankly, in the short term, that's the only solution that will eventually get this sorted out. We are very hopeful, given the government's support on the topic. In the mid to long term, there are multiple solutions, and we are working with the government in terms of a certain set of efforts of being more self-sufficient, and there are multiple alternatives," Chandra said. He further said, "In midterm, I think we'll have to look for some alternate sources, alternate countries." To a query on the delay in the launch of electric vehicles under the Avinya brand, Chandra said, "Mid of 2022 we were optimistic that in a two-and-a-half year, we would be able to come with this kind of a launch, but it had to undergo certain changes because of feasibility issues in certain subsystems. That led to more engineering time that went behind it. We were looking into different options from an execution perspective, all layers of architecture, and that led to more time than what we needed." EVs under the Avinya brand are now expected in late 2026 or early 2026.
