Economy Overview India

Source: NSO, IMF

GDP Growth: The estimates for the Indian economic growth are as below:

National Statistical Office ("NSO"): The growth in the real GDP during FY 2022-23 is estimated at 7.0%, compared to 9.1% in FY 2021-22. This is driven by the accentuated headwinds from prolonged geopolitical tensions, tightening global financial conditions and slowing external demand.

International Monetary Fund ("IMF"): Import and export volumes estimates based on the volumes computed from the current price data, deflated by the WEO price indexes and the NSO price indexes are as below:

Particulars FY 2022-23 FY 2021-22
Import of goods and services 7.5% 9.6%
Export of goods and services 23.1% 22.1%

Inflation: As per the Monetary Policy Committee (the "MPC") of the RBI, the inflation outlook will be influenced by several factors, both global and domestic. While crude oil and

commodity prices have been stabilized in recent months, their future trajectories remain uncertain, given the lingering geopolitical hostilities and the likelihood of a rebound in demand from countries reopening from pandemic-related lockdowns. Global financial markets are exhibiting volatility. Domestically, the expectations of a bumper rabi harvest augur well for the future trajectory of food inflation. On the other hand, adverse weather shocks are becoming more frequent and there is heightened uncertainty about the southwest monsoon rains. Considering the initial conditions, signals from forward-looking surveys and estimates from structural and other time-series models, CPI inflation is projected to average 5.2% in FY 2023-24, assuming a normal monsoon, a progressive normalization of supply chains, and no further exogenous or policy shocks.

Automobile Industry: According to data released by SIAM, the rate of change in industry volumes is depicted in the below table:

Segment FY

2022-23

FY

Domestic industry 48,51,241 37,86,547 28.1% 15.4%
Commercial vehicle 9,62,347 7,18,155 34.0% 26.0%
Passenger vehicle 38,88,894 30,68,392 26.7% 13.2%

The Passenger Vehicle segment posted its highest ever domestic sales surpassing the previous peak in FY 2018-19 while the Commercial Vehicles segment posted its second highest domestic sales and was close to the previous peak of FY 2018-19. While FY 2022-23 began with supply chain disruptions from the Russia-Ukraine conflict, such disruptions were alleviated by efficient supply chain management. The commodity prices have also moderated. Over the longer term, favorable policy initiatives including significant investments in infrastructure called out in the Budget, the new PLI schemes to accelerate investments by the private sector, forward looking logistic & foreign trade policies and recently announced gas pricing guidelines are expected to further encourage the growth in coming years.

Economic Growth: The global economy appears to be poised for a gradual recovery from the powerful blows of the pandemic and of RussiaRs.s war on Ukraine. China has reopened its economy. Supply-chain disruptions are unwinding, while the dislocations to energy and food markets caused by the war are receding. Simultaneously, the massive and synchronous tightening of monetary policy by most central banks has started to tame inflation. Conversely, the rapid rise in interest rates has contributed to stresses in parts of the financial system raising financial stability concerns. The unanticipated failures of two regional banks in the United States and the collapse of the Credit Suisse have exerted significant pressure on financial markets. The fall in fuel and energy prices, particularly in the United States, Euro area and Latin America has contributed to the decline in global headline inflation.

Commodities: Primary commodity prices declined 28.2% between August 2022 and February 2023. The decrease was led by energy commodities, down 46.4%.

Crude Oil : Crude oil prices retreated by 15.7% between August 2022 and February 2023 as the slowing global economy weakened demand. European natural gas prices declined by 76.1% amid lower consumption and high storage levels. China experienced its first annual decline in oil consumption in this century. Risks of price spikes remain somewhat elevated, however, for next winter.

Metals: Base and precious metal prices rebounded by 19.7% and 3.3%, respectively as compared to FY 2021-22. Prices had surged after the invasion but experienced a broad-based retreat amid slowing Chinese metal demand (accounting for roughly half of global consumption of major metals) and monetary policy tightening. With ChinaRs.s reopening and increased infrastructure spending the prices rebounded.

China: The lifting of COVID restrictions after many months of lockdown resulted in a surge of COVID infections in the last quarter of the year which compounded the headwinds from property market stresses in China. Declining property sales and real estate investment posed a drag on economic activity. In January 2023, high frequency economic indicators started picking up as COVID-19 waves subsided.

United States: The US Federal Reserve has been raising interest rates to restore price stability and to bring balance to the labor market. The demand for new hires is exceeding the supply of available workers in the US, as the unemployment rate has fallen to its lowest level in over 50 years, and this has contributed to higher inflation. To help bring the economy back into balance, IMF analysis shows that staying the course and keeping interest rates elevated this year will tame inflation. Although these higher rates will temporarily increase unemployment, they will pave the way for stable inflation and sustainable economic growth, which will ultimately help create more jobs in the future.

Europe: GDP is projected to fall to 0.8% in 2023 and 1.4% in 2024. Headline inflation is forecasted to fall from 9.2% in 2022 to 6.4% in 2023 and 2.8% in 2024 in the EU. In the euro area, it is projected to decelerate from 8.4% in 2022 to 5.6% in 2023 and to 2.5% in 2024. The EU economy has seen several positive developments including the fall in the EuropeRs.s main gas benchmark price to pre-war levels, aided by a sharp fall in gas consumption as well as continued diversification of supply sources. Despite the energy shock the economy managed a broad stagnation instead of the expected 0.5% contraction. The unemployment rate remains at its all-time low of 6.1%. However, core inflation increased in January and consumers and businesses continue to face high energy costs and with more than 90% of the core items in the harmonized index of consumer prices ("HICP") basket registering above-average price increases. Domestic demand could turn out higher than projected, if the recent declines in wholesale gas prices pass through to consumer prices more strongly. Risks to inflation remain largely linked to developments in energy markets in the short run, but upside risks dominate in the outer quarters, as a still tight labor market could result in stronger than anticipated wage pressure.

United Kingdom: Following a contraction of 0.4% in 2023, GDP is projected to increase by 0.2% in 2024. Consumer price inflation will peak at around 10% in late 2023 due to high energy prices and continuing labor and goods supply shortages, before gradually declining to 2.7% by the end of 2024. Private consumption is expected to slow, owing to rising living costs, but will be aided by a 9.7% increase in the

minimum wage and the usual uprating of welfare benefits and pensions in April 2023

from 14,822 units in FY 2021-22 to 34,120 units in FY 2022-23, largely due to increased demand for public transport due to the recommencement of face-to-face learning in school and colleges and return to office work.

Tata Commercial Vehicles and Tata Passenger Vehicles — Exports

With a global presence in 39 countries, including most South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation ("SAARC") countries, South Africa, Africa, Middle East and Southeast Asia, we offer a range of products, including M&HCV trucks, LCV trucks, buses, pickups and small commercial vehicles. As international business is an integral part of our business portfolio, since our inception in 1961, we strive to maintain, improve and expand our relations with the nations of the world.

Our overall sales in these International Markets dropped by 42% to 20,222 units in FY 2022-23 compared to 34,791 units in FY 2021-22. A major drop was witnessed in SAARC region (down by 62%) driven by total industry volumes softening, forex shortages and liquidity crunch in the latter half of the year. MENA and ASEAN regions witnessed 6% year on year growth in shipments. Non-SAARC markets contributed to 57% of total shipments in FY 2022-23 as compared to 34% in

FY 2021-22. Democratic Republic of Congo achieved highest ever shipments of 1,005 units in FY 2022-23; Saudi Arabia hits highest ever shipments of 1,292 units and retails of 1,401 units in FY 2022-23; Vietnam achieves highest ever retails of 998 units in FY 2022-23.

This is almost flat compared to 9,454 units in FY 2021-22. Domestic volume witnessed a degrowth of 13.8% from 7400 units in FY 202122 to 6,381 units in FY 2022-23, mainly due to a downturn in the domestic economy during the second half of the year. However, this decline in domestic was compensated by strong export growth of 51.5% from 2,054 units in FY 2021-22 to 3,112 units in FY 2022-23. During the year, TDCV launched LCV range of product "DEXEN" to strengthen its portfolio.

Tata Commercial Vehicles and Tata Passenger Vehicles — Sales and Distribution

Our sales and distribution network in India as at March 2023 comprised over 6,800 touch points for sales and service for our Passenger Vehicles and Commercial Vehicles businesses. We use a network of service centreRs.s on highways and a toll- free customer assistance centre to provide 24-hour roadside assistance, including replacement of parts, to vehicle owners.

We have a customer relations management system at all of our dealerships and offices across India, which supports users both at our Company and among our distributors in India and abroad.

With a global presence in 39 countries, including most South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation ("SAARC") countries, South Africa, Africa, Middle East and Southeast Asia, we offer a range of products, including M&HCV trucks, LCV trucks, buses, pickups and small commercial vehicles. Such distributors have created a network of dealers and branch offices and facilities for sales and after-sales servicing of our products in their respective markets. We have also stationed overseas resident sales and service representatives in various countries to oversee our operations in the respective territories.

Tata Commercial Vehicles and Tata Passenger Vehicles—Competition

We face competition from various domestic and foreign automotive manufacturers in the Indian automotive market. Improving infrastructure and robust growth prospects

compared to other mature markets have attracted strong international companies to India that have either formed joint ventures with local partners or have established independently owned operations in India. Global competitors bring with them their international experience, global scale, advanced technology, and significant financial resources, and as a result, competition is likely to further intensify in the future. We have designed our products to suit the requirements of the Indian market based on specific customer needs, such as safety, driving comfort, fuel efficiency and durability. By moving to Bharat Stage 6 ("BS6") successfully and subsequently the BS6 Phase 2 norms, we have demonstrated our ability to compete with the global players successfully. We believe that our vehicles are suited to the general conditions of Indian roads and the local climate. We also offer a wide range of optional configurations to meet the specific needs of our customers. We intend to develop and are developing products to strengthen our product portfolio in order to meet the increasing customer expectation of owning world-class vehicles.

Tata Commercial Vehicles and Tata Passenger Vehicles—Seasonality

Demand for our vehicles in the Indian market is subject to seasonal variations. Demand generally peaks in the last quarter of each financial year, i.e., between January and March each year, although there tends to be a decrease in demand in February just before release of the Government of IndiaRs.s fiscal budget. Demand is usually at a moderate level from April to July but gains momentum again from September onwards, due to the festival season, with a decline in December due to year-end.

Tata Commercial Vehicles and Tata Passenger Vehicles—Challenges

Tata Commercial Vehicles - Elevated levels of inflation continue to be a challenge with commodity prices increasing and impacting margins. Other macroeconomic factors, such as fuel price increases and rate hikes, are also a key concern as these play an important role in determining freight rates and therefore transporter profitability. While freight rates have been improving, going forward, too, it would need to keep pace with the fuel price increases and impending rate hikes.

Tata Passenger Vehicles - Business environment continues to be challenging, with inflation and commodity price increases impacting profitability, consumer spending power

and competitive nature of the industry. We aim to mitigate these risks by innovating, ensuring the portfolio remains "NEW FOREVER" by means of introducing exciting new variants, multiple powertrain options and fast tracking our cost reduction efforts to improve profitability.

Vehicle Financing

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary TMF Holdings Ltd and its step-down subsidiaries Tata Motors Finance Ltd ("TMFL") and Tata Motors Finance Solutions Ltd ("TMFSL"), we provide financing services to purchasers of our vehicles through independent dealers, who act as our agents for financing transactions, and through our branch network.

TMF group disbursed Rs.18,334 crores and Rs.16,329 crores in vehicle financing during FY 2022-23 and FY 2021-22, respectively. Approximately 17% and 27% of our commercial vehicle unit sales in India were made by the dealers through financing arrangements with the CompanyRs.s captive financing subsidiary during FY 2022-23 and FY 2021-22, respectively.

TMF groupRs.s customer finance receivable portfolio comprised over seven lakhs, contracts as at March 31, 2023.

During FY 2022-23 TMF group revenue stood at Rs.4,927 crores as compared to Rs.4,827 crores in FY 2021-22, The profit before tax for FY 2022-23 was a loss of Rs.993 crores as compared to a profit to Rs.101 crores in FY 2021-22. The reason for increase in loss in Fiscal 2023 was due to an increased provision for finance receivable.

Our portfolio contains ways to follow specified internal procedures, including quantitative guidelines, for selection of our finance customers and assist in managing default and repayment risk. We originate all the contracts through our authorized dealers and direct marketing agents with whom we have agreements. All our marketing, sales and collection activities are undertaken through dealers or by the TMF group.

Jaguar Land RoverRs.s performance on a wholesale basis:

Wholesales (excluding our China Joint Venture) for the FY 2022-23 were 3,21,362 up 9.2%, compared to FY 2021-22. Compared to the prior year, wholesale volumes were higher in all markets led by Overseas 14.2%, Europe 14.1%, UK 8.7%, China 8.5% and North America 2.9%. This increase was driven by the gradual improvement in the supply of semiconductor during the year though constraints on the supply of commercial semiconductor was not completely removed. Given these restrictions on availability of [our products], we have been able to increase our revenue per unit reflecting the prioritisation of higher margin products giving us a strong mix, particularly in the Range Rover and Defender families.

Jaguar Land RoverRs.s performance on a retail basis:

Retail sales for FY 2022-23 were 3,54,662 down 5.8% compared to FY 2021-22. Compared to the prior year, retail volumes were higher in the UK 0.9% and down in North America 15.1%, Europe 0.5%, China 5.0% and Overseas 6.3%. This reduction reflected the impact of the chip shortages during FY 2022-23 while retail volumes in FY 2021-22 were supported by destocking of inventories. Demand remains strong with the client order book at around 200,000 units as at March 31, 2023.

Retails by powertrain

The electrified mix, which includes mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles ("BEV"), increased slightly from 66% in FY 2021-22 to 67% in FY 2022-23. Within this, plug-in hybrid sales increased from 8% to 10%. During FY 2022-23, JLR commenced handover to customers of the new Range Rover and Range Rover Sport PHEV models while we are planning to launch a new Range Rover BEV model in 2024.

Jaguar Land RoverRs.s Sales and Distribution

In FY 2022-23, Jaguar Land Rover distributed its vehicles in 123 markets globally. Sales locations for vehicles are operated as independent franchises. Jaguar Land Rover is represented in its key markets through its National Sales CompanyRs.s ("NSCRs.s") as well as third party importers. Jaguar Land Rover has regional offices in certain select countries that manage customer relationships and vehicle supplies and provide marketing and sales support to its regional importer markets. The remaining importer markets are managed from the United Kingdom.

Jaguar Land Rover products are sold through a variety of sales channels: through its dealerships for retail sales; for

sale to fleet customers, including daily rental car companies, commercial fleet customers, leasing companies and governments. Jaguar Land Rover does not depend on a single customer or small group of customers to the extent that the loss of such a customer or group of customers would have a material adverse effect on its business.

Jaguar Land Rover — Competition

Jaguar Land Rover operates in a globally competitive environment and faces competition from established premium and other vehicle manufacturers who aspire to move into the premium performance car and premium SUV markets, some of which are much larger than they are. Jaguar vehicles compete primarily against other European brands such as Audi, Porsche, BMW and Mercedes Benz as well as Tesla. Land Rover and Range Rover vehicles compete largely against SUVs from companies such as Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Mercedes Benz, Porsche, Volvo and Volkswagen.

Jaguar Land Rover — Seasonality

Jaguar Land Rover volumes are impacted by the biannual change in age related registration plates of vehicles in the United Kingdom, where new age-related plate registrations take effect in March and September each year. This has an impact on the resale value of the vehicles because sales are clustered around the time of the year when the vehicle registration number change occurs. Seasonality in most other markets is driven by the introduction of new model year vehicles and derivatives. Furthermore, Western European markets tend to be impacted by summer and winter holidays, and the Chinese market tends to be affected by the Lunar New Year holiday in either January or February, the PRC National Day holiday, and the Golden Week holiday in October. The resulting sales profile influences operating results on a quarter-to-quarter basis.

Jaguar Land Rover — Challenges

Semiconductors and general supply constraints

The ongoing supply chain challenges, particularly around semiconductors, continued to limit our ability to build cars in line with customer demand during FY 2022-23. We saw significant volatility in raw material commodity markets during the year leading to abnormal pricing levels and elements of scarcity in some markets. Supply constraints were caused by various external factors, namely Covid-19 recovery, the conflict in Russia-Ukraine and energy inflation.

In response to these challenges, we focused production on higher margin products and improved our organisational

capabilities and processes to more proactively manage our supply chain. We put in place long- term supply agreements directly with a number of semiconductor manufacturers to protect both current and future product programs. As a result of our actions, our wholesale volumes for the year were 3,21,362 up 9.2% compared to the prior year. Whilst general supply chain challenges are likely to continue in the coming year, we anticipate that the actions we have taken this year will minimise the impacts on our volumes.

Global inflation

Inflationary pressures have increased during the past year with energy prices in Europe, where we produce the majority of our cars, rising as a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We have seen cost increases coming from higher commodity prices, energy costs, labour rates and semiconductor prices.

We have taken steps to offset these impacts under our Refocus program which has delivered over ?1 billion of value to the business through actions taken to optimise sales, lower costs and to prioritise investment spending.

Geopolitics

Geopolitical challenges including increasing geopolitical tensions and regulatory and legislative changes such as the US inflation reduction act have a global reach and can impact global of supply chains. While we have not observed any direct impacts on our business in the last year as a result of specific events, we proactively scenario plan against a range of outcomes to ensure we remain well balanced as a business.

Tax expenses / (credit)

Our income tax expenses were Rs.704 crores in FY 202223, compared to Rs.4,231 crores in FY 2021-22, resulting in consolidated effective tax rates of 20.0% and 60.4%, for FY 2022-23 and FY 2021-22, respectively. Tax rates applicable to individual entities increased to 36.5% for FY 2022-23, compared to 13.5% in FY 2021-22.

There is significant decrease in tax expense as referred to above due to the following reasons:

^ During FY 2022-23, Tata Motors Limited recognised Deferred Tax Assets on previously unrecognised unused unabsorbed depreciation and long term capital losses incurred in the current year based on the probability of sufficient taxable profit in future periods, mostly those arising from planned divestments which will yield capital gains against which such unabsorbed depreciation and capital loss will be set off. Accordingly, Rs. 1,615 crores deferred tax has been recognised as at March 31, 2023.

^ During FY 2022-23, Tata Motors Ltd utilized tax losses of Rs.365 crores, whereas in FY 2021-22, business losses for Tata Motors Limited was offset against the capital gains on sale of PV Business and thus resulted in utilization of tax losses amounting to Rs.585 crores. The tax losses utilized in FY 202122 for certain subsidiaries and joint operations was Rs.183 crores as compared to Rs.140 crores in FY 2021-22.

^ In FY 2022-23, deferred tax assets not recognized because realization is not probable was Rs.692 crores as compared to Rs.3,528 crores in FY 2022-23. Of this, amount pertains to JLR GBP 34 million (Rs.345 crores) for FY 2022-23, as compared to GBP 331 million (Rs.3,380 crores) in FY 2021-22, mainly due to inability to recognize deferred tax assets arising in the years due to current UK loss profile.

^ There is tax charge on undistributed earnings of subsidiaries amounting to Rs.602 crores in FY 2022-23 as compared to Rs.407 crores in FY 2021-22, due to increased profitability.

^ During FY 2021-22, Tata Motors Ltd has transferred its Passenger Vehicle Business to a subsidiary on a slump sale basis as per defined under section 2(42C) of the Indian-tax Act, 1961. This has resulted in Capital gain tax of Rs.1,283 crores. However, due to set-off of brought forward unabsorbed depreciation against the capital gains, there is no capital gains tax payable on the same.

Profit/(loss) after tax

Our consolidated net profit in FY 2022-23, excluding shares of non-controlling interests, is Rs.2,414 crores, as compared to loss of Rs.11,441 crores in FY 2021-22. This was mainly the result of the following factors:

^ Earnings before other income (excluding Incentives), finance cost, foreign exchange gain/(loss) (net), exceptional items and tax for Jaguar Land Rover is profit of Rs.3,482 crores in

FY 2022-23, compared to loss of Rs.439 crores in FY 2021-22. During FY 2022-23, Jaguar Land Rover has recognized a pension past service credit of Rs.1,495 crores (?155million) due to change in inflation index from RPI to CPI.

Profit was reduced mainly due to higher provisioning of impairment of vehicle loans.

Share of profit/(loss) of equity-accounted investees and non-controlling interests in consolidated subsidiaries, net of tax

In FY 2022-23, our share of equity-accounted investees reflected a profit of Rs.336 crores, compared to loss of Rs.74 crores in FY 2021-22. Our share of profit (including other adjustments) in the China Joint Venture in FY 2021-22 was of Rs.144 crores, compared to loss of Rs.206 crores in FY 2021-22.

E. Liquidity and Capital Resources

We finance our capital expenditures and research and development investments through cash generated from operations, cash and cash equivalents, and debt and equity funding. We also raise funds through the sale of investments, including divestments in stakes of subsidiaries on a selective basis.

The key element of the financing strategy is maintaining a strong financial position that allows us to fund our capital expenditures and research and development investments efficiently even if earnings are subject to short-term fluctuations. Our treasury policies for liquidity and capital resources are appropriate for automotive operations and are set through business specific sensitive analysis and by benchmarking our competitors. These are reviewed periodically by the Board.

(i) Principal Sources of Funding Liquidity

Our funding requirements are met through a mixture of

equity, convertible or non-convertible debt securities and other long- and short-term borrowings. We access funds from debt markets through commercial paper programs, convertible and non-convertible debentures, and other debt instruments. We regularly monitor funding options available in the debt and equity capital markets with a view to maintain

financial flexibility

See Note 41 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report for additional disclosures on financial instruments related to liquidity, foreign exchange and interest rate exposures and use of derivatives for risk management purposes.

The following graph sets forth a summary of the maturity profile for our outstanding long-term debt obligations (including current maturities of long-term borrowings) as of

March 31, 2023.

The following table sets forth our total liquid assets, namely cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and investments in mutual funds and money market funds (unde other Investment—Current):

(Rs. in crores)

As of March 31,
2023 2022
Total cash and cash equivalent 31,558 38,159
Total short-term deposits 4,817 2,038
Total mutual fund investments 18,704 21,972
Total liquid assets 55,078 62,169

These resources enable us to address business needs in the event of changes in credit market conditions. Of the above liquid assets, Jaguar Land Rover held Rs.38,547 crores and Rs.43,859 crores as of March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Most of Jaguar Land RoverRs.s liquid assets are maintained in GBP , USD, EUR and RMB with smaller balances maintained in other currencies to meet operational requirements in those geographic regions.

We expect total product and other investment spending to be around Rs.38,000 crores in property, plants and equipment and product development during FY 2023-24.

We will step-up our investments for domestic business to cater to increasing demand, launch new products and technologies and explore new business avenues. Jaguar Land Rover has Investment plans of ?15 billion over five years in its industrial footprint, vehicle programmes, autonomous, AI and digital technologies and people skills, as a part of its reimagine strategy. Tata Motors Limited (TML) and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Limited (TMPVL) expects to meet the investments primarily out of their own operating cash flows. Capital investments in Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Limited (TPEML) will be largely funded from the funds received from TPG Rise Climate in line with the strategy roadmap set. Any additional funding requirements if needed, can be met through loans and other debt from time to time. Despite step-up in the investments, we are expecting our business to be self-sustaining, and we aim to get to turn net cash positive by Fiscal 2025.

Auto Free Cash Flow (cash flow from operating activities less payment for property, plant and equipment and intangible assets add proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment, less interest paid add interest received, add dividend from equity accounted investees core auto and less investment in equity accounted investees of core auto entities and less cash flow of TMF Group i.e., financing business) on consolidated basis was positive at Rs.7,840 crores compared to negative Rs.9,472 crores in FY 2021-22. This is mainly on account of improvements in cash profit and working capital.

The following table provides information for the credit rating of Tata Motors Limited for short-term borrowing and long-term borrowing from the following rating agencies as of March 31, 2023: Credit Analysis & Research Limited ("CARE"), Information and Credit Rating Agency of India Ltd. ("ICRA Limited" or "ICRA"), Credit Rating Information Services of India Ltd. ("CRISIL Ltd" or "CRISIL"), Standard & PoorRs.s Ratings Group ("S&P") and MoodyRs.s Investors Service ("MoodyRs.s"). A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. A credit rating may be subject to withdrawal or revision at any time. Each rating should be evaluated separately of any other rating. The credit rating of Tata Motors as at March 31, 2023, was as follows.

Rating agency Long-term borrowings Short-term

borrowings

CARE AA- / Stable A1+
ICRA AA- / Positive A1+
CRISIL AA- /Stable A1+
S&P BB- / Stable -
MoodyRs.s B1 / Stable -

Subsequently, S&P upgraded the long-term issuer and issue credit rating on Tata Motors Limited to BB/Stable from BB-/ Stable in April 2023.

As at March 31, 2023, JLRRs.s rating was "B1"/ Stable by MoodyRs.s, "B+"/Stable by Standard & PoorRs.s. Subsequently, in April 2023, S&P upgraded the credit rating to BB-/Stable.

As at March 31, 2023, for TMFHL and its subsidiaries, CRISIL, ICRA and CARE rating on long- term debt instruments and long-term bank facilities stood at "AA -/ Stable",

We believe that we have sufficient liquidity available to meet our planned capital requirements. However, our sources of funding could be materially and adversely affected by an economic slowdown, as was witnessed in FY 2008-09, arising due to the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions or other macroeconomic factors in India, the United Kingdom, the United States, Europe or China, which are beyond our control. A decrease in the demand for our vehicles could affect our ability to obtain funds from external sources on acceptable terms or in a timely manner.

We assessed the cash flow projections and available liquidity for a period of eighteen months from the date of these financial statements. Based on this evaluation, our management believes that the Company will be able to continue as a Rs.going concernRs. in the foreseeable future. For further details kindly refer note 2 (e) in Significant accounting policies forming part of consolidated financial statement.

Our cash is located in various subsidiaries. The cash in some of these jurisdictions, notably South Africa and Brazil, is subject to certain restrictions on cash pooling, intercompany loan arrangements or interim dividends. However, annual dividends are generally permitted, and we do not believe that these restrictions have, or are expected to have, any impact on our ability to meet our cash obligations.

For various repayments made during FY 2022-23, refer "summary of long-term debt outstanding as of March 31, 2023" in Principal Sources of Funding Liquidity.

Short-term funding

We fund our short-term working capital requirements with cash generated from operations, overdraft facilities with banks, short- and medium-term borrowings from lending institutions, banks and commercial paper. The maturities

of these short-term and medium-term borrowings and debentures are generally matched to particular cash flow requirements. We had borrowings of Rs.13,230 crores and Rs.17,378 crores as of March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

On January 1, 2022, we transferred our Passenger Vehicles business to TMPVL, a wholly owned subsidiary. Accordingly, the working capital limits for Tata Motors Limited were reduced to Rs.7000 crores and we entered into facility with a consortium bank for Rs.3,000 crores working capital limits for TMPVL. The unutilized working capital Limits for TMPVL were Rs. 2,779 crores as at March 31, 2023. As at March 31, 2023, the unutilized working capital limits for Tata Motors Limited were at Rs.4,724 crores. The working capital limit are secured by hypothecation of existing current assets, including stock of raw material, stock in process, semi-finished goods, stores and spares not relating to plants and machinery (consumable stores and spares), bills receivables and book debts, including vehicle financing receivables and all other moveable current assets, except cash and bank balances, loans and advances of Tata Motors Limited, both present and future. The working capital limit are renewed annually.

For Jaguar Land Rover, the unutilized revolving credit facility was GBP 1.52 billion as at March 31, 2023. In our opinion, our working capital facilities and short-term borrowings are sufficient for the CompanyRs.s present requirements.

As at March 31, 2023, Jaguar Land Rover Limited had sold receivables of GBP 373 million equivalent under the approximately US$500 million committed invoice discounting facility, which was renewed for another two years in March 2023. Under the terms of this facility receivables are accounted as sold (through trade receivables in working capital) and therefore not accounted as debt under IFRS.

Loan Covenants

Some of our financing agreements and debt arrangements set limits on and/or require prior lender consent for, among other things, undertaking new projects, issuing new securities, changes in management, mergers, sales of undertakings and investments in subsidiaries. In addition, certain negative covenants may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or to incur additional liens, and/or provide for increased costs in case of breach. Certain financing arrangements also include financial covenants to maintain certain debt-to-equity ratios, debt-to-earnings ratios, liquidity ratios, capital expenditure ratios and debt coverage ratios.

We monitor compliance with our financial covenants on an ongoing basis. We also review our refinancing strategy

and continue to plan for deployment of long-term funds to address any potential non-compliance.

We monitor compliance with our financial covenants on an ongoing basis. We also review our refinancing strategy and continue to plan for deployment of long-term funds to address any potential non-compliance.

The outstanding term loan as at March 31, 2023, is Rs.15 crores.

Certain debt issued by Jaguar Land Rover is subject to customary covenants and events of default, which include, among other things, minimum liquidity requirement in the case of the UKEF facilities (and the GBP 1.52 billion extended revolving credit facility, restrictions or limitations on the amount of cash that may be transferred outside of the Jaguar Land Rover Group in the form of dividends, loans or investments to TML and its subsidiaries. These are referred to as "restricted payments" in the relevant Jaguar Land Rover financing documentation. In general, the amount of cash which may be transferred as restricted payments from the Jaguar Land Rover Group to the Company and its subsidiaries is limited to 50% of its cumulative consolidated net income (as defined in the relevant financing documentation) from January 2011. As at March 31, 2023, the estimated amount that is available for dividend payments, other distributions and restricted payments was approximately GBP 4.4 billion.

(ii) Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures totalled Rs.18,543 crores and Rs.14,907 crores during FY 2022-23 and FY 2021-22, respectively. Our automotive operations accounted for most of such capital expenditures. We currently plan to invest around Rs.38,000 crores in FY 2023-24 in new products and technologies.

Our capital expenditures in India for Commercial Vehicles and Passenger Vehicles business during FY 2022-23 related mostly to (i) the introduction of new products, such as the Tata Punch, Tiago and Tigor CNG, Altroz DCA, Tata 407 CNG, ACE Petrol and wide range of commercial vehicles (ii) the development of planned future products and technologies, and (iii) quality and reliability improvements aimed at reducing operating costs.

Total product and other investment for Jaguar Land Rover in FY 2022-23 was GBP 2.4 billion, primarily reflecting the product launches and refreshes, as well as towards electrification platforms, architectures and investments in future BEVRs.s as a part of Reimagine Strategy.

We continue to focus on development of new products for our various markets. Through Jaguar Land Rover, we continue to make investments in new technologies through its research and development activities to develop products that meet the requirements of the premium market, including developing sustainable technologies to improve fuel economy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, such as the expansion of electrification across 12 of Jaguar Land RoverRs.s 13 nameplates, including eight plug-in hybrid and eleven mild hybrid models as well as the all-electric Jaguar I-PACE.

We intend to continue investing in our business units and research and development over the next several years, including capital expenditures for our ongoing projects, new projects, product development programs, mergers, acquisitions and strategic alliances in order to build and expand our presence in the Passenger Vehicle and Commercial Vehicle categories.

F. Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Ind AS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of this annual report and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the years presented. The actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and on each balance sheet date. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised, and future periods are affected.

In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements are included in the following notes:

Impairment of Goodwill

CGUs to which goodwill is allocated are tested for impairment annually on each balance sheet date, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to that unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata on the basis of carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Goodwill impairment loss recognized is not reversed in subsequent period.

Impairment

Property, plants and equipment and intangible assets

On each balance sheet date, we assess whether there is any indication that any property, plants and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives may be impaired. If any such impairment exists, the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to determine the extent of impairment, if any. Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, we estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs.

Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment annually on each balance sheet date, or earlier if there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.

The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing VIU, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pretax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset (or CGU) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset (or CGU) is reduced to its recoverable amount. If this occurs, an impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statement of profit and loss.

Finance receivables

We provide allowances for losses on portfolio of finance receivables on the basis of expected future collection from receivables. The future collection is estimated on the basis of past collection trend which are adjusted for changes in current circumstances as well as expected changes in collection based on expectations with respect to certain macroeconomic factors, such as GDP growth, fuel price and inflation as well as management judgement regarding qualitative factors, including economic uncertainty, observable changes in portfolio performance, and other relevant factors.

Capitalization of internally generated intangible assets

We undertake significant levels of research and development activity and for each vehicle program periodic review is undertaken. We apply judgement in determining at what point in a vehicle programs lifecycle that recognition criteria under accounting standards is satisfied.

Product Warranty

Vehicle warranties are provided for a specified period of time. Our vehicle warranty obligations vary depending upon the type of the product, geographical location of its sale and other factors.

The estimated liability for vehicle warranties is recorded when the products are sold or when new warranty programs are initiated. These estimates are established using historical information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims and management estimates regarding possible future warranty claims, customer goodwill and recall complains. The timing of outflows will vary depending on when warranty claim will arise, being typically up to six years and for batteries in Electric Vehicles warranty period is typically up to eight years.

We also have back-to-back contractual arrangements with our suppliers in the event that a vehicle fault is proven to be a supplierRs.s fault. Estimates are made of the expected reimbursement claims based upon historical levels of recoveries from supplier, adjusted for inflation and applied to the population of vehicles under warranty as on balance sheet date. Estimated supplier reimbursements are recognized as separate asset. Actual claims incurred in the future may differ from our original estimates, which may materially affect warranty expenses.

Employee Benefits

Employee benefit costs and obligations are dependent on assumptions used in calculating such amounts. These assumptions include salary increases, discount rates, health care cost trend rates, benefits earned, interest costs, expected return on plan assets, mortality rates and other factors.

While we believe that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences in actual experience or changes in assumptions may affect our employee benefit costs and obligations.

Recoverability/recognition of deferred tax assets

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and unutilized business loss and depreciation carryforwards and tax credits. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed separately for each taxable entity and for each taxable jurisdiction. Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses,

depreciation carryforwards and unused tax credits could be utilized.

INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS AND THEIR ADEQUACY

We have an adequate system of internal controls in place. We have documented policies and procedures covering all financial and operating functions. These controls have been designed to provide a reasonable assurance regarding maintaining of proper accounting controls for ensuring reliability of financial reporting, monitoring of operations, and protecting assets from unauthorized use or losses, compliances with regulations. We have continued our efforts to align all our processes and controls with global best practices.

Some significant features of the internal control of systems are:

^ The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, comprising entirely of independent directors and functional since August 1988, regularly reviews the audit plans, significant audit findings, adequacy of internal controls, compliance with accounting standards as well as reasons for changes in accounting policies and practices, if any;

^ Documentation of major business processes and testing thereof including financial closing, computer controls and entity level controls, as part of compliance program towards Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as required by the listing requirements at New York Stock Exchange and also as required under the Companies Act, 2013;

^ Robust Enterprise Resource Planning, supplier relations management and customer relations management connect our different locations, dealers and vendors for efficient and seamless information exchange. We also maintain a comprehensive information security policy and undertakes continuous upgrades to our IT systems;

^ Detailed business plans for each segment, investment strategies, year-on-year reviews, annual financial and operating plans and monthly monitoring are part of the established practices for all operating and service functions;

^ A well-established, independent, multi-disciplinary Internal Audit team operates in line with governance best practices. It reviews and reports to management and the Audit Committee about compliance with internal controls and the efficiency and effectiveness of operations as well as the key process risks. The scope and authority of the Internal Audit division is derived from the Internal Audit Charter, duly

approved by the Audit Committee; and Anti-fraud programs including whistle blower mechanisms are operative across the Company;

^ Adopted three Line Of Defence model. The 1st line of defence, ensures implementation of desired Internal Controls and Risk Management practices. The 2nd line of defence assist in determination of Risk Capacity, Appetite, Process and Procedures and facilitate oversight, monitoring and reporting on Risk and Controls. The 3rd line of defence is the internal audit, which provides Independent and Objective assurance to the Audit Committee on overall effectiveness of Risk Management, Internal Control and Compliance activities and recommendations on improvements required; ^ An ongoing program, for the reinforcement of the Tata Code of Conduct is prevalent across the organization. The Code covers integrity of financial reporting, ethical conduct, regulatory compliance, conflicts of interestRs.s review and reporting of concerns.

The Board takes responsibility for the overall process of risk management throughout the organization. Through an Enterprise Risk Management program, our business units and corporate functions address risks through an institutionalized approach aligned to our objectives. This is facilitated by internal audit. The Business risk is managed through crossfunctional involvement and communication across businesses. The results of the risk assessment are presented to the senior management. The Risk Management Committee reviews business risk areas covering operational, financial, strategic and regulatory risks.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this annual report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Although we have implemented various initiatives for continuous business operation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, including enabling most of our employees to telework, apart from those who need to work at their office for smooth operations, we believe these initiatives have not had a significant impact on our internal control over financial reporting.

During FY 2022-23, we assessed the effectiveness of the Internal Control over Financial Reporting and has determined that our Internal Control over Financial Reporting as at March 31, 2023, is effective.

HUMAN RESOURCES / INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

Our people are our best assets. Their caliber and commitment are our inherent strength. With the singular objective of always being the employer of choice in the Indian auto industry, we are encouraging our employees to discover and realize their true potential.

Building a Strong Workforce

We employed approximately 81,811 and 73,608 permanent employees as of March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The average number of flexible (temporary, trainee and contractual) employees for FY 2022-23 was approximately 36,082 compared to 40,717 (including joint operations) in FY 2021-22. We have a healthier gender diversity with 8.79% of our workforce comprising of women employees.

The following graph presents the breakdown of persons employed by the CompanyRs.s business segments as of the following dates.

Culture

Culture is a key enabler to optimize potential, retain and also attract top talent to fuel performance within the organization. The collective desire to become more agile and future ready necessitated a refresh of the organizational culture. Following an intense process of co-creation wherein thoughts, opinions, perspectives and aspirations of every employee were heard, a new Culture Credo, summarized as - More When One with its four culture pillars - Be Bold, Solve Together, Own it & Be Empathetic, was launched. These culture pillars were further defined through eight distinct leadership behaviors - Agility, Risk taking, OwnerRs.s Mindset, Empowerment, Collaboration, Accountability, Embrace Diversity and Passion for Customers. A high impact launch, followed by consistent and conscious efforts to accelerate the Culture Transformation journey with active employee participation has resulted in improvement in overall employee engagement scores.

Capability Development

Committed to empowering our employees, we are fostering their development by strengthening their functional, managerial and leadership capabilities to make them future- fit. With volatility rising in the external environment, a holistic approach has been adopted to proactively identify and address all potential capability gaps. Tata Motors Academy designs and creates appropriate functional training modules to address the development needs of the various segments of our workforce. The academy focuses on three functional pillars - Customer Excellence, Product Leadership, Operational Excellence and Management Education. The emphasis of the functional academies is to reinforce knowledge, skills and expertise with a structured and in-depth approach, within the respective function:

^ By embracing digital, the academy has also embarked upon a decisive journey of curated functional e-learning journeys for all its employees. This includes e-learning and virtual classrooms, which augments the offering of functional as well as management education pillars.

TALENT MANAGEMENT

Healthy succession pipeline and leadership capabilities is the focus such that we create a Talent Factory across employee levels of the Organization. Our annual Organizational & Talent Review process and a robust Succession planning exercise ensures that we maintain a healthy succession pipeline of critical and leadership roles. This enables us to identify, groom and develop potential candidates across the organization. Comprehensive leadership development approach is established based on talent assessments and identification process. Basis the developmental needs identified, developmental programs are tailored to the requirements in partnership with a top ranked global business schools and esteemed knowledge partners like Tata Management Training Center (TMTC) as well as external partners. To cite examples, Leadership Trails curated for Senior Leadership of Tata Motors in collaboration with TMTC and global institutions of repute. Another example is that of Inner Circle, a developmental program for our best mid-level and junior management talent has also been introduced in collaboration with a marquee academic institution. To provide employees with growth opportunities across functions, locations and business units, we encourage internal mobility of our talent through job rotations and Rs.Career ExploreRs. - our internal job posting portal.

Skill Development

The endeavor to deliver high quality products by enhancing our craftsmanship and improving manufacturing and assembly processes continues with a greater thrust. To address the rapid technology disruptions and changing market dynamics, we have developed the Rs.Future of WorkplaceRs. strategy. It provides our workforce with new skills such as High Voltage (Electric Vehicles), Mechatronics (Industry 4.0), Auto Electronics and Vehicle Communication.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

We are actively reskilling our permanent workforce in these newer technology areas. In parallel, we are also developing a young, skilled, agile and digital enabled workforce through our companyRs.s flagship full-time apprenticeship program (new craftsman trades) and the Earn and Learn NEEM program. We recruit talent from the finest training institutes. Beyond core trade-based skills, we focus and train our technicians in very specific skills to achieve world-class quality, best-in-class know-how and high productivity levels.

Talent attraction at JLR

Software is essential for us to deliver next-generation automated driving systems, digital services, and experiences for clients. ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) and autonomous driving skills have been identified as critical to this ambition, but are a sought-after skill set in the market. To attract these skills, and compete with other industries, we have expanded our global operational footprint in Germany, Italy and Spain, in addition to existing hubs in Manchester, Ireland, Hungary, Portland, India and China, to access a wider skills pool and harness the best talent for our business.

Upskilling for the future at JLR

We are also focused on evolving the skills of our workforce through upskilling programs that build critical capabilities internally. To enable the transition from internal combustion engines to battery electric vehicles, we have upskilled our engineers on electrification through the co-creation of bespoke courses, in partnership with a local university. Focus has also been placed on upskilling employees in Rs.product ownerRs. and Rs.scrum masterRs. roles, to enable agile ways of working in program delivery.

Early Careers at JLR

= Training and development

We have developed three e-learning modules for our UK business with future plans to create the same for all regions, to ensure that all our colleagues have a good understanding

D

of diversity and inclusion, and how inclusivity can affect those around us. These modules have reached a minimum completion rate of 92%.

We have also established a face-to-face diversity and inclusion training program, for colleagues across our UK manufacturing sites.

In July 2022, we announced the appointment of two diversity and inclusion co-sponsors, Franpois Dossa, and Barbara Bergmeier, ensuring diversity and inclusion is represented at the highest levels of our business. They are supported by 14 global employee resource groups, ensuring that employees have spaces where they are able to share their lived experiences, and also to learn from one anotherRs.s experiences. These have been instrumental in showcasing the power of allyship within our organization.

Diversity & Inclusion

Tata Motors fosters workplaces that promote diversity and equal opportunities. It is our endeavor to establish an environment where diversity is natural and business as usual.

We have the following strategic focus areas for diversity and inclusion:

^ Strategic workforce planning: We have designed a process for workforce planning that focuses on increasing gender diversity across levels and various segments of the organization. With this process, we are able to proactively anticipate current and future hiring needs and align them to driving more gender balanced hiring.

^ Culture transformation: We are working towards creating an inclusive workplace culture through our policies and processes. The Company organizes sensitization and awareness campaigns to help create an open mind and culture to leverage diversity at the workplace.

^ Business integration: We recognize that a diverse workforce enables us to better understand and serve our customers and intend to embed D&I into our business operations covering all aspects - business strategy, people or operations. We conceptualize product designs that are inclusive and cater to a diversified customer base. We encourage our suppliers to adopt gender diversity at their end too.

^ Partnership & external impact: We aim to create opportunities in all dimensions of diversity by partnering with specialists and NGOs to support local communities. We are committed to working with our external partners, such as suppliers and customers, to promote diversity and inclusion across the industry.

In a significant step forward toward increasing gender diversity on the shop floor, traditionally a male bastion, our TCF assembly at the Pune Plant is now entirely operated and managed by over 1,500 women employees. This is a benchmark practice in automobile industry. Also, women employees completely manage one line at Maval foundry. We have a development program called Gear-Up. Eligible women employees are provided training or mentorship basis each women employeeRs.s strengths and improvement areas. Some of these initiatives include providing opportunities with various teams like quality circles, GEMS projects, and innovation projects through the Imagineering platform. The Second Career Initiative Program (SCIP) is a platform that encourages women, who put their career on pause to restart it with interesting opportunities. We also introduced Paternity Leave and Adoption Leave for our male colleagues to support parenthood. Inclusive Internship policy is formulated to drive employability initiative and employment opportunities for LGBTQ+ and PwD.

Tata Motors measures the success of its diversity and inclusion initiatives via different parameters. These parameters measure success of diversity initiatives across H2R (Hire to Retire) journey of employees. Gender diversity for new hires is tracked. Attrition of women employees and the reasons for the same is closely monitored as well. We also compare performance appraisal normalization of ratings for women employeesRs. function/BU wise vis-a-vis men employees to ensure that there are no biases at play at any stage. We track career development of women employees through a robust review mechanism of "Individual Development Plan (IDP)" and measure the success of it by tracking number of women managers identified and developed as successor to senior leadership roles.

External partnerships

Since 2018, we have held an official partnership with Stonewall. This relationship and the insight provided informs our policies and specific guidance and support, such as our Rs.transitioning at workRs. guidance for employees and managers. We have been steadily increasing our position in the Stonewall Index.

We have been a member of Business in the Community since 2019, providing support as a race partner. We were the first automotive company to sign the Race at Work Charter in 2019, outlining a list of commitments to improve equity in race. We signed the updated Charter in 2022, to re-state our commitment to driving action in this area.

Most recently, in 2022, we joined in partnership with the Business Disability Forum, and in FY 2023-24, we will have a

specific focus on disability and neurodiversity, to help ensure that we are providing employees with everything they need to work at their best and feel confident and comfortable in doing so.

Industrial Relations

We have labor unions for our technicians at all our plants across India except the Dharwad plant. The Company maintains cordial relations with its employees at its factories and offices and has been supported by the unions in the implementation of several reforms to improve safety, quality, cost erosion and enhance productivity across all locations. Technicians and unions have supported business continuity to achieve productivity levels during challenging times caused by COVID-19 and the semi-conductor supply chain crisis.

These settlements mark a significant milestone in our organizationRs.s journey towards growth and business excellence. The discussions with our Union colleagues were conducted in a constructive and collaborative manner, and we are grateful for their efforts and continued support in reaching a mutually beneficial agreement. In a first, we have transitioned from MOP to HPeV as a measure of productivity, setting international standards of productivity and also achieved historic five minutes increase in available production time which will result in increased output and higher market share.

EMPLOYEE ONBOARDING AT SANAND-2

We have successfully completed the on-boarding of over 600 employees from the recently acquired Ford Plant in Sanand, Gujarat. A comprehensive Orientation plan put in place in partnership with reputed educational institution for skill development of the onboarded employees.

SURRENDERING OF PROVIDENT FUND TO EMPLOYEE PROVIDENT FUND ORGANISATION (EPFO)

The transfer of provident fund balance for a majority of the Rs. 65000 employees across all locations to their account EPFO account was completed. Members can now view the same by logging into the EPFO portal.

OPPORTUNITIES

A recent industry report by Nikkei Asia finds India to be the third largest auto-producing nation after China and the USA. IndiaRs.s automotive sector is worth more than $222 billion and contributes 8% of the countryRs.s total export, and accounts for 7.1% of IndiaRs.s GDP. It also provides direct and indirect employment to over 19 million people.

Phase 2 of Bharat Stage 6 emission norms came into effect on April 1, 2023, which requires the vehicles to meet real time driving emission standards. The vehicles will be equipped with an OBD (On Board Diagnostic) system that monitors the emissions in real world.

Phase-II of Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles in India (FAME India), with a total budgetary support of Rs.10,000 crore is extended till March 31, 2024. The incentives are provided to buyers of electric vehicles in the form of an upfront reduction in the purchase price of electric vehicles based on battery capacity.

The Government of India approved the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for Automobile and Auto Component Industry in India for enhancing IndiaRs.s Manufacturing Capabilities for Advanced Automotive Products (AAT) with a budgetary outlay of Rs.25,938 crore. The PLI Scheme for Automobile and Auto component industry proposes financial incentives to boost domestic manufacturing and attract investments in the automotive manufacturing value chain. Its prime objectives include overcoming cost disabilities, creating economies of scale and building a robust supply chain. Tata Motors has got approval in PLI scheme.

The finance bill of FY 2023-24 has given reduction in customs duty (5 to 20%) on machinery and capital goods, used to produce lithium-ion batteries for EVs. This should help in reducing the price of EVs in the country from mid- to longterm and ensure the Advance Cell Chemistry PLI scheme is well supported. A national budget of Rs.19,700 crore has been allocated to National Green Hydrogen Mission, which is an initiative by the government, focused on promoting the usage of Hydrogen as a renewable and clean energy source. We see significant opportunities to leverage the mega trends shaping the Indian automotive industry by means of increasing digital offerings, strengthening the play in CV passenger segment under own maintain and operate model, accelerating CNG and EV penetration in CVRs.s, stepping up new product launches in EVRs.s and expanding EV ecosystem in India.

Jaguar Land Rover is accelerating its Reimagine transformation into a business that will deliver double-digit EBIT margins by Fiscal 2026 and achieve net zero carbon through our entire value chain, including our products, supply chain and operations, by 2039.This strategy aims to launch Jaguar as a pure electric brand from 2025 by introducing the first Land Rover all electric model by 2024 with an additional five all electric Land Rover models launched by 2026, launch the modular longitudinal architecture and electrified modular architecture (native BEV architecture) for Land Rover products and a BEV only architecture dedicated to Jaguar. The new BEV will be available for orders by end of 2024 and will be starting deliveries from 2025.

OUTLOOK:

Long-Term

IndiaRs.s annual production of automobiles in FY 2021-22 was 22.93 million vehicles. India is also a prominent auto exporter and has strong export growth expectations for the near future. In addition, several initiatives by the Government of India such as the Automotive Mission Plan 2026, scrappage policy, and production-linked incentive scheme are expected to make India one of the global leaders in the two-wheeler and four-wheeler market.

The Indian passenger car market was valued at US$ 32.70 billion in 2021, and it is expected to reach a value of US$ 54.84 billion by 2027 while registering a CAGR of over 9% from 2022 to 2027 According to NITI Aayog and the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), IndiaRs.s EV finance industry is likely to reach Rs. 3.7 lakh crore (US$ 50 billion) by 2030. A report by the India Energy Storage Alliance estimated that the EV market in India is likely to increase at a CAGR of 36% until 2026.

Due to the recent developments in this sector, we can still say that the Automobile Industry has the potential to contribute about 12% of the total GDP of the nation and create 65 million employment opportunities, as per the original Automotive Mission Plan 2016-26.

The Government aims to develop India as a global manufacturing and research and development (R&D) hub. It has set up National Automotive Testing and R&D Infrastructure Project (NATRiP) centres as well as the National Automotive Board to act as facilitator between the Government and the industry.

The Range Rover introduced plug-in hybrid electric propulsion with a segment-leading official electric-only range of over 100km. From 2024, a pure electric Range Rover will join the family. By 2026, Land Rover will welcome six all-electric variants, across two architectures—our flexible Modular Longitudinal Architecture (MLA) and Electric Modular Architecture ("EMA"). This will help Jaguar Land Rover to meet unprecedented policy shifts and an exponential rise in customer demand toward electric vehicles across its key markets. As adoption increases, Jaguar Land Rover expects over 60% of global Land Rover sales to be pure electric by 2030.

As part of the Refocus transformation program, Jaguar Land Rover also explores opportunities to source materials in a more cost-effective manner, as well as sharing components across platforms in order to gain economies of scale and reduce engineering costs per vehicle.

JLR aims to become net zero carbon by 2039 throughout its entire Value chain and had defined and committed to CO2e reduction targets by 2030, which have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative ("SBTi"), aligning the business to a 1.5-degree emissions reduction set out by the Paris Agreement.

Short-Term

Trends suggest that the automotive industry is hurtling towards another challenging year. Globally, the gasoline crisis amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the global supply chain disruptions and stalled sales run rampant in the current scenario. However, Electric vehicle segment shows significant promise.

Energy costs in Europe have risen since the build-up to the start of the conflict in Ukraine and during FY 2022-23. These prices may not fall back to prior levels in the future, and this could have impact on the global competitiveness of Europe as a manufacturing location compared to countries such as the USA who do not rely on imports of gas. Some parts of the automotive supply chain are sourced from Russia and Ukraine, including Neon gas used in semiconductor production (Ukraine) and palladium (Russia). Should the conflict lead to shortages of these or any other commodities, we may face

challenges within our supply chain in sourcing parts or face significant price increases in the future.

Domestically, factors such as fuel price hikes affect freight rates and transporter profitability in case of commercia vehicles. Reduced consumer spending due to inflation, higher costs due to the new emission norms and the subsequent anticipated reduction in sales are all issues plaguing the industry. There has been a marked shift in consumer interesl towards connected vehicle features that provide updates regarding traffic congestion, road safety, and vehicle health status.

The Passenger Vehicle business landscape is seeing rapid transformation in the form of tightening emissions norms the push toward electrification, enhanced disruptions from autonomous and connected technologies and, as the aspiration levels of the Indian consumer continue to rise requiring stepped-up investments in contemporary products in a competitive market.

Meanwhile, Commercial Vehicle segment is introducing electric variants while pushing for connected vehicles. CV demand is expected to grow based on the governmentRs.s continuing thrust on infrastructure development, as well as improvement in finance for fleet buyers who make up for the bulk of truck sales, and replacement demand for buses kicking in. In addition, EV adoption is also expected to see growth in the country once all vehicle segments demonstrate considerable ownership savings over those powered by internal combustion engines (ICE).

Customer requirements are increasingly pointing towards electrification and Jaguar Land Rover is driving forward connectivity in and with its vehicles. Through remote diagnostics and software-over-the-air updates, JLR can already predict, diagnose and update all major vehicle systems. To date, Jaguar Land Rover has completed more than three million updates on customer vehicles, and through its Electric Vehicle Architecture, it can monitor data points to continually enhance its customer experiences.

Furthermore, Jaguar Land Rover formed a multi-year strategic partnership with NVIDIA, the leader in artificia intelligence and computing, to jointly develop and deliver next-generation automated driving systems, plus AI-enabled services and experiences for its customers. From 2025, new Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles will be built on the NVIDIA DRIVE™ software-defined platform—delivering a wide spectrum of active safety, automated driving and parking systems, as well as AI features inside the vehicle.

Jaguar Land Rover has also partnered exclusively with BNP Paribas, to broaden competitive automotive financing with new, innovative services across nine European markets. The ambition is to provide retail partner network and customers with an expanded range of financing solutions and insurance products by early 2023.
