Consolidated Net Revenue stood at Rs.61,020 crores in Q1 of FY 2015-16

Consolidated Profit stood at Rs.2,769 crores

Mumbai, August 07, 2015

Consolidated Financial Results for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015

Tata Motors today reported consolidated revenues (net of excise) of Rs.61,020 crores for the quarter, as against Rs.64,683 crores for the corresponding quarter of the previous year, due to lower sales and weaker geographic mix at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), partially offset by strong revenue growth in standalone business on the back of continued M&HCV growth. The Consolidated Profit before tax for the quarter was Rs.4,359 crores, as compared to Rs.7,528 crores for the corresponding quarter of the previous year and the Consolidated Profit after tax (post minority interest and share of profit / (loss) of associates (net)) for the quarter was Rs.2,769 crores as compared to Rs.5,398 crores for the corresponding quarter of the previous year.

Tata Motors Stand-alone Financial Results for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015

Fleet replacement demand mainly in the high tonnage segment, continued to support the Company sales growth of 20.7% Y-o-Y in the domestic MHICV segment in the quarter. However, the domestic LCV segments (mainly the SCV) continued to remain weak, witnessing a de-growth of 19.0% Y-o-Y, due to the tough financing environment and lack of last mile load availability. Exports of the commercial vehicles saw strong growth of 38.0% Y-o-Y in the quarter. As a result, the overall CV sales were almost flat in the quarter. New launches in the Prima LX, Ultra range and SCV range as well as other product enhancements provides a strong foundation for the future growth. In this quarter we celebrated the tenth anniversary of Tata Ace that had created a new Small Commercial Vehicle (SCV) category when launched and has surpassed the 1.5 million sales mark in these ten years.

In Passenger vehicles, ZEST, BOLT and newly launched GenX Nano, supported the sales growth in the quarter. The domestic passenger vehicles segment of the Company grew 27.4% Y-o-Y in the quarter with car segment growth of 42.2% Y-o-Y in the quarter. Company expects to continue its volume growth with full year of Zest, Bolt, new GenX Nano and other new and exciting products that will be launched in the coming time period under the Company’s Horizonext strategy

The sales (including exports) of commercial and passenger vehicles for the quarter, stood at 1,17,439 units, a growth of 6.2% as compared to the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The revenues (net of excise) for the quarter stood at Rs.9,297 crores, as compared to Rs.7,705 crores for the corresponding quarter of the previous year. Operating profit (EBITDA) for the quarter stood at Rs.440 crores at 4.7%. Profit before and after tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 was Rs.269 crores and Rs.258 crores, respectively, against the Profit before and after tax of Rs.394 crores, for the corresponding quarter last year. Profit before tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, includes other income (profit on sale of investments in subsidiary companies and dividends from subsidiary companies) of Rs.805 crores (Rs.1,549 crores for the corresponding quarter last year).

Jaguar Land Rover Automotive plc Financial Results for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015 - (figures as per IFRS)

Jaguar Land Rover wholesales were 110,648 units and retails (including from China JV) for the quarter were 114,905 units.

Revenues for the quarter stood at GBP 5,002 million against GBP 5,353 million for the corresponding quarter last year. Operating profit (EBITDA) for the quarter stood at GBP 821 million at 16.4%, against GBP 1,087 million for the corresponding quarter last year. The financial performance in the quarter was lower than the strong corresponding quarter last year due to softer sales in China partially offset by strong performance in the UK, Europe and North America.

Land Rover maintained healthy sales in the quarter with Range Rover, Range Rover Sport Discovery and Defender all up compared to the corresponding quarter last year. Furthermore, the Discovery Sport performed well, already outselling the Freelander which it replaced. Evoque sales were lower due to the ramp up of localized production in China and softer market conditions there. Jaguar sales volumes were down as the sales of XF and XJ fell ahead of the all new lightweight XF and the refreshed XJ 16MY, on sale in autumn this year, partially offset by the successful introduction of the new Jaguar XE.

Profit before and after tax stood at GBP 638 million and GBP 492 million, respectively (GBP 924 million and GBP 693 million, respectively in the corresponding quarter last year).

Auditors Report (Consolidated)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

TATA MOTORS LIMITED

 

1. We have reviewed the accompanying Statement of Consolidated Unaudited Financial Results of TATA MOTORS LIMITED (hereinafter referred to as “the Holding Company”), its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as “the Group”) and jointly controlled entities and its associates for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015 (“the Statement”), being submitted by the Company pursuant to Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges, except for the disclosures in Part II - Select Information referred to in paragraph 7 below. This Statement is the responsibility of the Company’s Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the Statement based on our review.

 

2. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of Company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

3. We did not review the interim financial statements / information / results of six subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial results, whose interim financial statements / information / results reflect total revenues of Rs. 50,664.49 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, and total profit after tax (net) of Rs. 3,169.61 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, as considered in the consolidated financial results. The consolidated financial results also include the Group’s share of profit after tax Rs Nil for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, as considered in the consolidated financial results, in respect of one associate, whose interim financial statements / information / results have not been reviewed by us. These interim financial statements / information / results have been reviewed by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us by the Management and our report on the Statement, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of these subsidiaries and the associates is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

 

4. Based on our review conducted as stated above and based on the consideration of the reports of the other auditors referred to in paragraph 3 above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards as per Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, read with Rule 7 of the Companies (Accounts) Rules, 2014 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.


Table of Contents
5. Attention is invited to Note 4 in the Statement. As stated in the note, the changes in the actuarial valuation (net) amounting to Rs. 1,355.25 crores (credit) (net of tax of Rs. 338.86 crores) for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015 have been accounted in “Reserves and Surplus” in respect of a group of subsidiary companies.

Our report is not qualified in respect of this matter.

 

6. The consolidated financial results include the interim financial statements / information / results of seventeen subsidiaries and two jointly controlled entities which have not been reviewed / audited by their auditors, whose interim financial statements / information / results reflect total revenue of Rs. 898.62 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, and total profit after tax (net) of Rs. 54.82 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, as considered in the consolidated financial results based on financial statements / information / results which have been certified by the management. The consolidated financial results also includes the Group’s share of profit after tax of Rs. 3.23 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015, as considered in the consolidated financial results, in respect of three associates, based on their interim financial statements / information / results which have been certified by the management and are not reviewed / audited by their auditors.

Our report is not qualified in respect of this matter.

 

7. Further, we also report that we have traced the number of shares as well as the percentage of shareholding in respect of the aggregate amount of public shareholding and the number of shares as well as the percentage of shares pledged / encumbered and non-encumbered in respect of the aggregate amount of promoters and promoter group shareholding in terms of Clause 35 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges and the particulars relating to investor complaints disclosed in Part II - Select Information for the Quarter ended June 30, 2015 of the Statement, from the details furnished by the Management.
