what happened

According to Moody's, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd recorded a loss of Rs.5,451 crore in the September quarter. The loss came from job cuts and asset write-downs at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR). A year earlier the company had booked a profit of Rs.76,428 crore, but that was lifted by a one-time gain from the demerger of its commercial vehicle business. Consolidated revenue rose 34% to Rs.96,920 crore.

On Friday, JLR cut its FY27 adjusted operating margin forecast to 2-3% from 4%, lowered its revenue outlook to about £25 billion from £26 billion, and expects cash outflow of around £1.25 billion more than inflow this year. It cited market difficulties, geopolitical risks and restructuring costs.

why it matters

The 4% margin forecast given in June had already triggered a sell-off in Tata Motors PV shares in India. Net debt rose from Rs.30,700 crore to Rs.50,800 crore, which keeps investor attention on the company's ability to reduce leverage.
