Tata Motors (TTMT IN): Index Impact of DVR Cancellation

Trung Nguyen

Tata Motors' Q1/24-25 results were decent, with revenues and profit reaching record levels. However, net debt increased slightly following investment expenditure, preparations for the Range Rover EV launch and dividend payments. We share the company's view that growth this year will likely be stable compared to the high base of FY 2023-24, due to: [1] consumer expectations surrounding the Range Rover EV launch and its initial revenue effects; and [2] the company's profit margins decreasing slightly to cover the substantial initial costs for marketing, as well as the continuous quality improvements for new EV models. However, the company is confident about its FY 2025-26 target of a 10% EBIT margin. This may occur if the new electric models achieve stable quality rapidly, thus gradually reducing costs or even increasing the selling price.
