Tata Tech leans on SDV on auto cos' code push
Product engineering and digital services firm Tata Technologies is increasing its focus on software-defined vehicle (SDV) solutions as global automakers shift research and development (R&D) priorities from mechanical components to software and electronics to drive in-car innovation, a top executive said. While the car industry growth is only about 3-4 per cent per year globally, the SDV segment is expanding almost 25-30 per cent, Nachiket Paranjpe, president and head of sales for Global Automotive Business at the company, told ET. He also spoke about the high demand for SDV engineers. 'There's strong global demand for talent skilled in SDV-related technologies, especially in C++, Python, Linux, and other key platforms,' Paranjpe said. Tata Technologies has built an SDV workforce of about 1,000 engineers in India and 1,600 globally. He also highlighted the focus of automakers on the Indian market. 'With the China story for Western OEMs facing challenges and market shares declining, OEMs are now intensely focusing on India. They recognise India's significant disposable income and a large middle class seeking luxury mobility at specific price points,' Paranjpe said. This shift is expected to drive innovations that will help reduce prices, making products more accessible and comfortable for the Indian market segment, he added.

Tata Tech doubles down on software-defined vehicles amid OEM shift
Academy Empower your mind, elevate your skills Product engineering and digital services firm Tata Technologies said it is doubling down on its Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) offerings as global automakers shift research and development (R&D) priorities from mechanical components to software and electronics to drive in-car innovation. Nachiket Paranjpe, President, Global Automotive Business at the company, told ET that while the overall car industry growth is only about 3–4% per year, the SDV segment has grown almost 25–30%.He also spoke about the high demand for SDV engineers globally. 'There's strong global demand for talent skilled in SDV-related technologies, especially in C++, Python, Linux, and other key platforms.' Tata Technologies has built a significant SDV workforce with a team of about 1000 engineers just in India and 1600 company spokesperson also highlighted the renewed focus on the Indian market. 'With the China story for Western OEMs facing challenges and market shares declining, OEMs are now intensely focusing on India. They recognise India's significant disposable income and a large middle class seeking luxury mobility at specific price points,' Paranjpe shift is expected to drive innovations that will reduce overall price points, making products more accessible and comfortable for the Indian market segment, he January, the company said it has partnered with BMW Group to establish a joint venture called BMW TechWorks India , focusing on developing SDVs and other automotive software solutions by setting up an R&D centre in partnership will bring innovative solutions for ADAS (advanced driver-assistance system) platforms, automotive cockpit domain controllers, and central and zonal gateway controllers that will accelerate the realisation of SDVs. Paranjpe said 14 service providers were screened, and the deal was valued at about $25 about AI software development, Paranjpe said that the hyper-scalers such as Google, Microsoft and Amazon will eventually win the race due to their size and large capital backing. 'However, India has the opportunity in the skills needed to find these golden nuggets of AI in the world. Figuring out the tools made by the hyperscalers that can be used to build unique solutions, Indian talent can do that,' he the larger umbrella of the Tata Group, the company is bullish on its performance this year, with its capability of developing full vehicles. In Q4 of FY2025, the company reported a 20.12% increase in consolidated net profit to Rs 188.87 crore, even as its revenue from operations saw a marginal drop of 1.18% to Rs 1,285.65 crore.

Tata Tech–Emerson Partnership Cuts Mobility Testing Time by 67%
Tata Technologies and Emerson have partnered to accelerate the development of next-generation vehicles by creating faster, smarter testing and validation solutions. Their joint efforts have already shown promising results, including a 67% reduction in EV powertrain testing timelines during a pilot with a European luxury carmaker. With active programs across India, Europe, and North America, the collaboration aims to simplify complex development cycles and support the global shift toward electric and autonomous mobility. By Riddhima Jain Published on July 9, 2025, 11:44 IST In a major step towards redefining how future vehicles are tested, Tata Technologies and Emerson have teamed up to develop smarter, faster testing and validation solutions for electric, autonomous, and next-gen software-driven vehicles. This partnership brings together Tata Technologies' deep know-how in mobility engineering with Emerson's cutting-edge tools for testing and automation. The goal? To help global carmakers, aerospace giants, and commercial vehicle manufacturers cut down development time and build better products—faster. And it's already showing results. In one of their pilot projects with a top European luxury carmaker, the two companies managed to build EV powertrain test rigs in just five months. That's a whopping 67% faster than the industry standard. Another collaboration saw them run over 30,000 test scenarios on an infotainment display system, significantly shrinking the product development timeline. 'We're excited to work with Emerson on building intelligent and automated testing tools,' said Nachiket Paranjpe, President and Head of Automotive Sales at Tata Technologies. 'It's part of our bigger vision—to make the future of mobility software-defined, efficient, and customer-focused.' Echoing this enthusiasm, Shitendra Bhattacharya, Country Head of Emerson's Test and Measurement business in India, said the partnership represents a 'powerful synergy' that will help automakers simplify the complex task of bringing next-gen vehicles to market. Pilot programs are already live in India, Europe, and North America, with more global rollouts in the pipeline. For both companies, this is more than a partnership—it's a shared commitment to accelerating the shift to smarter, cleaner, and safer mobility. Ahmedabad Plane Crash
