Tata Motors' passenger vehicle's growth expectations

Tata Motors expects the passenger vehicle industry to grow to 5-7%in the current financial year compared with 27% sales growth in the last financial year with a dip in pent-up demand.

According to media reports, the auto major is looking to introduce new products, including CNG and electric models, while bolstering its existing range with new interventions to sustain growth.

Further, the company expects the growth rate to be more moderate this year and anticipates a return to double-digit growth beyond the current financial year. Also, the increase in vehicle prices due to the transition to real driving emissions (RDE) could impact demand in this financial year.

Tata Motors is focusing on demand generation through targeted marketing efforts and measures to improve conversion rates. The company is also expanding its portfolio by introducing CNG and electric vehicle models, with expectations of substantial growth in both segments.

Tata Motors aims to benefit from these developments while simultaneously driving margin improvement through a cost-reduction initiative.

Tata Motors remains in the fast lane when it comes to electric vehicles (EVs). The Tata group is leading India's EV revolution, and Tata Motors has remained at the forefront.
