Development (R&D) hub.
 Under NATRiP, the Government of India is planning to set up R&D centres at a total cost of US$
388.5 million to enable the industry to be on par with global standards

 In February 2019, the Government of India approved FAME-II scheme with a fund
requirement of Rs 10,000 crore (US$ 1.39 billion) for FY20-22.

Road Ahead
The automobile industry is supported by various factors such as availability of skilled labour at low cost,
robust R&D centres, and low-cost steel production. The industry also provides great opportunities for
investment and direct and indirect employment to skilled and unskilled labour.

BCG MATRIX OF TATA MOTORS
The matrix categorises business units as “stars,” “cash cows,” “dogs,” and “question marks,”
depending on whether they deserve cash infusions or need to be closed down.
“Stars” are business units that have a high market share but consume a high amount of cash
as they are situated in a high-growth market.
“Cash cows” are business units with a high market share but find themselves in a mature,
low-growth market.
Therefore, such units do not require cash but rather provide cash.
“Dogs”, also known as “pets,” have a low market share in a low-growth market. They
neither generate cash nor require investments. They are often seen as “cash traps,” in
which the investments already made do not generate profits.
“Question marks”, also known as “problem children,” have small growth rates in a high-
growth market. They demand high investments to capture some market share, but whether
this cash infusion will provide returns will be known only in the future. However, they have
the potential for growth

the metros with its offerings varying from NANO to Jaguar Land Rover segment.

managers and all those looking to switch from 2-wheeler to 4-wheeler. The age bracket

based roles to work from home but insisted its manufacturing operations will continue to
function as before . As per reports from the company has developed a three-tier response
plan.

ended June 30, 2020.The company had sold 1,37,545 units in the April-June quarter of 2019-
20. Domestic sales of the company stood at 23,845 units in the first quarter of the current
fiscal, down 82 per cent from 1,31,879 units in same period of 2019-20, Tata Motors said in a
statement.

As per the statement, amidst subdued demand environment, first quarter was marked by
successful transition to BS-VI across the range of commercial vehicles. There are early
recovery signs in a few sectors, and the company looks forward to a gradual pickup in
demand on the back of overall economic recovery while continuing to address the challenges
of intermittent demand and supply disruptions from Covid-19.

The company's commercial vehicle sales during the quarter declined by 90 per cent to 10,476
units as compared with 1,00,357 units in same period of 2019-20.Passenger vehicle sales
during the period under review declined by 61 per cent to 14,571 units as against 36,945 units
in the corresponding period last year. The Covid-19 lockdown deeply impacted PV industry
sales in the first quarter of 2021 fiscal.

June. Retail sales were stronger than wholesales by 27 per cent, driven by the company's
focus on the former while ensuring optimum inventory levels in the network.

crore and undrawn committed facilities of Rs 1,500 crore. Tata Motors has decided to provide
only quarterly sales data from April this year. Retail sales were stronger than wholesales by
27 per cent, driven by the company's focus on the former while ensuring optimum inventory
levels in the network.

PESTEL ANALYSIS –

Political environment –
The Goods and Service Tax (GST) which was introduced in July 2017 is a growth
opportunity for the automobile industry (Tata Motors 2017). Whereas the old tax system was
levied on the manufacture and on exported vehicle leaving the consumer to bear the burden in
buying, in the new system the tax is charged at the point of supply. With the government
taxing the automobile 28% and a sizable reduction in small cars and SUVs, this will
positively impact on the buyer as the taxation impact will be passed on to the consumer in
form of cheaper cars which will in turn boost manufacturing growth.
The high barriers of trade by the Indian government which include the new tariffs aimed at
helping flagship make-in-India drive are both an opportunity and a threat to the automobile
industry. These tariffs are however an opportunity for Indian companies like Tata Motors as
it favors them over foreign companies like Ford. One of the major trends affecting the Indian
car market is the demonetization policy. In November 2016, India introduced a law that bans
all high value notes that accounted for 86% of the currency in circulation in a bid to root out
counterfeit currency, fix tax evasion, carb inflation, eliminate black money and promote a
cashless economy. This has largely affected the economic growth and cash intensive
industries like manufacturing due to less cash availability.
Tata Motor’s UK operations have been negatively impacted by the Brexit. The Move by UK
to leave the EU has resulted into both economic and political uncertainties which have
resulted into a price hike and less demand for cars (Conn 2017). This partly resulted into a
decline of Tata Motors sales in UK in 2017 with Jaguar Land Rover selling 7,097 units in
October 21.5% lower than a year ago.

Economic environment
India’s growing economy is a major trend that will impact positively on automobile
manufacturers like Tata Motors. After months of suffering from the Demonetization effects,
India’s GDP grew by 7.2% in the third quarter of 2017 beating the fastest growing economy
of China at 6.8% (The Economic Times 2018). India’s GDP is forecast to grow 7-7.5% in
2018-2019 with the end of the negative effects of Demonetization (Business Today 2018).
This high GDP is a great opportunity for automobile industries like Tata Motors as it is
consistent with robust growth in the consumer spending power.
Intensive competition in the global automobile industry is a major trend that is impacting
negatively on companies like Tata Motors. Brand positioning is becoming more challenging
due to the competitive pressure from existing manufactures like Hyundai and new disruptive
entrants like Volvo due to globalization.
As a multinational company operating in the UK, Tata Motors has been negatively impacted
by the UK slow economic growth post Brexit. As the result of the devalued pound, inflation
has risen from deep to high inflation causing economic volatility which has placed pressure
on customers and a squeeze on household income .This has resulted into a decline in Tata
Motors sales in UK with Jaguar Land Rover selling 7,097 units in October 2017 which was
21.5% lower than sales a year ago .
Social Environment
The changing life style of the millennials will impact the automobile industry negatively.
Unlike those days when cars were seen as a status symbol by the millennials, these days the
buying trend is shifting from ownership to access and buying a car is becoming less on the
millennials list. With car services like Uber and Ola offering almost the convenience of a
personal car, most millennials find buying a car unnecessary (Jain 2017; Saint 2018). With
India expected to become the youngest country with a median age of 29, car manufacturers
like Tata Motors should look out for this trend as it will affect the car demand in India.
Technological environment
Internet of things. The development of Intelligent connected cars will be a major global
trend. The global connected car market is expected to be $72.89 billion in 2017 and expected
to reach $219.21 billion by 2025(Global News Wire 2018). These intelligent cars will be able
to react to dynamic changing situations such as a vehicle automatically collecting
information on its sensors, processing it and issuing instructions for action depending on the
situation.
These cars are also able to connect with each other with a system to help cars understand
traffic and help control it .Tata Motors in collaboration with Microsoft India is among the
companies in India who have taken the initiative to join the trend of intelligent connected
cars.
The Legal environment
The Goods and Services Tax is a great opportunity growth for companies like Tata. with the
government taxing the automobile 28% and a sizable reduction in small cars and SUVs, this
will positively impact on the buyer as the taxation impact will be passed on to the consumer
in form of cheaper cars which will in turn boost manufacturing growth.
Environmental Factors
The Indian government has toughened its emission norms on automobile manufacturers
where by all manufacturers have to give a declaration about the emission levels of cars they
manufacture starting from April 2020(Dashi 2018). The road transport ministry has amended
the form 22 under the motor vehicles act where by all cars have to comply with the pollution
standards, components quality, safety standards and road worthiness certificates for all
vehicles(Dashi 2018). In response, Tata motors has planned on adopting EGR (Exhaust Gas
Recirculation) and SCR(Silicon Controlled Rectifier) in order to be at the forefront to meet
emission regulations before 2020(The Hindu 2017). The company has also created a climate
change agenda where by it has adopted energy efficient systems like variable frequency
drives for motors, 20% power use by the company is from renewable resources as well as the
greening of its Tata building in a bid to cab emissions(Tata sustainability group 2018).
