Results for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014
Tata Motors today reported consolidated revenues (net of excise) of Rs.69,973
crores for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, a growth of 9.6% over Rs.63,853 crores for the corresponding quarter last year, despite continuing weak operating environment in the standalone business which was more than offset by, increase in
wholesale volumes, richer product mix and market mix at Jaguar Land Rover (JLR). The Consolidated Profit before tax for the quarter stood at Rs.5,732 crores, a de-growth of 6.4% over Rs.6,127 crores for the corresponding quarter last year. The
Consolidated Profit after tax (post minority interest and profit / loss in respect of associate companies) for the quarter was Rs.3,581 crores, a de-growth of 25.5% over Rs.4,805 crores for the corresponding quarter last year.
The consolidated revenue (net of excise) for the nine months ended December 31, 2014, was Rs.1,95,220 crores posting a growth of 16.5% over Rs.1,67,516
crores for the corresponding period last year. The Consolidated Profit before tax for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 was Rs.18,932 crores, a growth of 37.0% over Rs.13,816 crores for the corresponding period last year. The Consolidated

Tata Motors Standalone Financial Results for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014
In the MHICV segment, positive economic sentiment, firm freight rates and improved freight availability, lower fuel prices and improved profitability of truck
operators led to replacement demand which supported the Company sales growth in this segment of 42.9% Y-o-Y in Q3 FY 2014-15. However, LCV segments (mainly the SCV) continued to be impacted by low transportation tonnage and vehicle over-capacity as
well as constrained financing environment. As a result, the overall CV sales were down 8.5% Y-o-Y in Q3 FY 2014-15. New launches in the Prima LX and Ultra range as well as other product enhancements provides a strong foundation for the future
growth.
In Passenger vehicles, ZEST, the All-new Stylish Compact Sedan, received a very strong and encouraging response
from the customers. This led to the passenger vehicles segment of the company showing a growth of 4.6% Y-o-Y with car segment growth of 16.8% Y-o-Y in Q3 FY 2014-15. Zest has won several awards in the Compact sedan segment since its launch.
The sales (including exports) of commercial and passenger vehicles for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, stood at 1,27,484 units, down by 3.5%,
as compared to the corresponding quarter last year. The revenues (net of excise) for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 stood at Rs.9,056 crores, as compared to Rs.7,770 crores for the corresponding quarter last year. Loss before and after tax
for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was Rs.2,105 crores and Rs.2,123 crores, respectively, against Profit before and after tax of Rs.621 crores and Rs.1,251 crores, respectively, for the corresponding quarter last year. Loss before tax
for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 includes profit of Rs.13 crores on divestment of investment in a foreign subsidiary company to TML Holdings Pte Ltd, Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary (Rs.1,948 crores for the corresponding quarter
last year), provision of Rs.310 crores to the carrying cost of buildings at Singur due to uncertainty on the timing of resolution of the legal case pending in the Supreme Court of India and the unamortised exchange loss of Rs.216 crores due to the
prepayment of the existing foreign currency borrowings with new foreign currency borrowings in the quarter.
The revenues (net of excise) for the Nine
months ended December 31, 2014, stood at Rs.25,510 crores as compared to Rs.25,743 crores in the corresponding period last year. Loss before and after tax for nine months ended December 31, 2014 was Rs.2,818 crores and Rs.3,575

Continued strong revenue and operating performance were driven by wholesale volume increase, richer product mix supported by the ongoing success of Range Rover Sport, Range Rover and Jaguar F-TYPE, rich market mix. Profit before tax of GBP
685 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was down 18.6% over the corresponding quarter last year (GBP 842 million in the corresponding quarter last year) due to unfavourable revaluation of foreign currency debt and

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 (“the Company”), its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities (the Company, its
subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities constitute “the Group”) and its share of the profit of its associates for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 (“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 of three subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial results, whose interim financial statements / information reflect total revenues of Rs.
59,813.46 crores and Rs. 1,66,033.13 crores for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 respectively, and total profit after tax (net) of Rs. 5,839.72 crores and Rs. 17,963.72 crores for the Quarter and Nine months ended
December 31, 2014 respectively, as considered in the consolidated financial results. The consolidated financial results also include the Group’s share of profit after tax of Rs. Nil and Rs. Nil for the Quarter and Nine months ended
December 31, 2014 respectively, as considered in the consolidated financial results, in respect of one associate, whose interim financial statements / information have not been reviewed by us. These interim financial statements / information
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 associate, 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 and the possible effects of the matter described in paragraph 6 below,
nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards specified under the Companies Act, 1956 (which are deemed to be applicable 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. |
| 5. |
Attention is invited to Note 5 in the Statement. As stated in the note, the changes in the actuarial valuation (net) amounting to Rs. 1,593.23 crores (credit) (net of tax) and Rs. 26.52 crores (credit) (net of tax) for
the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 respectively, 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 of twenty three subsidiaries and two jointly controlled entities which have not been reviewed / audited by their auditors, whose
interim financial statements / information reflect total revenue of Rs. 1,102.60 crores and Rs. 3,103.28 crores for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 respectively, and total loss after tax (net) of Rs. 73.30 crores and Rs.
261.87 crores for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 respectively, as considered in the consolidated financial results. The consolidated financial results also includes the Group’s share of profit after tax of Rs. 2.27
crores and Rs. 6.62 crores for the Quarter and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 respectively, as considered in the consolidated financial results, in respect of three associates, based on their interim financial statements / information
which have not been 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 and Nine months ended December 31, 2014 of the Statement, from the details furnished by the Management. |

Notes:-
| 1) |
The above results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board and were approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on February 5, 2015. |
| 2) |
Figures for the previous periods / year have been regrouped / reclassified, wherever necessary. |
| 3) |
In October 2008, the Company moved the Nano project from Singur in West Bengal to Sanand in Gujarat. In June 2011, the newly elected Government of West Bengal (State Government) enacted a law cancelling the land lease
agreement at Singur, and took over possession of the land. The Company challenged the constitutional validity of the law. In June 2012, the Calcutta High Court declared the law unconstitutional and restored Company’s rights under the land lease
agreement. The State Government filed an appeal in the Supreme Court of India in August 2012, which is pending disposal. Though the Company continues to rigorously press its rights, contentions and claims in the matter, the Company has been advised
that the time it may take in disposal of the appeal is uncertain. The Company has also been advised that it has a good case and can strongly defend the appeal, but the questions that arise are issues of constitutional law and thus the result of the
appeal cannot be predicted. In these circumstances, in view of the uncertainty on the timing of resolution, following the course of prudence, the management has during the quarter ended December 31, 2014, made a provision for carrying capital
cost of buildings at Singur amounting to Rs. 309.88 crores included under the head “other expenses” excluding other assets (electrical installations etc.) and expenses written off / provided in earlier years, security expenses, lease
rent and claim for interest on the whole amount (including Rs. 309.88 crores). The Company shall however continue to pursue the case and assert its rights and its claims in the Courts. |
| 4) |
The tax expense is not comparable with the profit before tax, since it is consolidated on a line-by-line addition for each subsidiary company and no tax effect is recorded in respect of consolidation adjustments. This
accounting treatment is as per Accounting Standard (AS)-21. |
| 5) |
During the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014, an amount of Rs. 1,593.23 crores (net of tax) and Rs. 26.52 crores (net of tax), respectively, has been credited [Rs. 764.67 crores (net of tax) has been
credited and Rs. 1,542.91 crores (net of tax) has been debited for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2013], respectively to “Reserves and Surplus”, representing changes in actuarial valuation of pension plans of a
subsidiary company in the UK, in accordance with IFRS principles and as permitted by AS 21 in the consolidated financial statements. |
| 6) |
In terms of the proviso to clause 3 (i) of Part A of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act), the Company and its domestic group companies have decided to retain the useful life hitherto adopted for
various categories of fixed assets, which are in certain cases, different from those prescribed in Schedule II to the Act. Based on the policy followed by the Company of continuous and periodic assessment, the estimated useful life and residual
value adopted so far is appropriate. |
| 7) |
During the quarter ended December 31, 2014 |
| |
(i) |
the Company has issued USD 500 million 4.625% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2020 and USD 250 million 5.750% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024. The proceeds have been used to refinance existing External Commercial
Borrowing (ECB) of the Company of USD 500 million and balance proceeds are being used to incur new additional capital expenditure and other permitted purposes as per RBI ECB guidelines. As the ECB has been prepaid, the unamortised exchange loss
(net) of Rs. 216.07 crores and the borrowing cost of Rs. 27.08 crores as at September 30, 2014 have been debited to Statement of Profit and Loss during the quarter ended December 31, 2014. |
| |
(ii) |
Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Plc (JLR), an indirect subsidiary of the Company, issued USD 500 million 4.250% Senior Notes due 2019. The proceeds are used for general corporate purposes, including support for the
on-going growth and capital spending plan. |
| 8) |
Automotive operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries represent the reportable segment, rest are classified as ‘Others’. Automotive segment consists of all types of commercial and passenger
vehicles including financing of the vehicles sold by the Company. Others primarily include engineering solutions and software operations. |

DIRECTORS OF
TATA MOTORS LIMITED
| 1. |
We have audited the accompanying Statement of Standalone Financial Results of TATA MOTORS LIMITED (“the Company”) for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014 (“the
Statement”), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges, except for the disclosures in Part II - Select Information referred to in paragraph 4 below. This
Statement has been prepared on the basis of the related interim financial statements, which is the responsibility of the Company’s Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
Statement, based on our audit of the related interim financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in Accounting Standard (AS-25) on Interim Financial Reporting specified under
the Companies Act, 1956 (which are deemed to be applicable 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.
|
| 2. |
We conducted our audit of the Statement in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in India. Those Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
Statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and the disclosures in the Statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and the significant
estimates made by the Management, as well as evaluating the overall Statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. |
| 3. |
In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Statement: |
| |
(i) |
is presented in accordance with the requirements of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the Stock Exchanges; and |
| |
(ii) |
gives a true and fair view in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net loss and other financial information of the Company for the quarter and nine months ended December 31,
2014. |
| 4. |
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 the investor
complaints disclosed in Part II - Select Information for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014 of the Statement, from the details furnished by the Management/Registrars. |

Notes:-
| 1) |
The above results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board and were approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on February 5, 2015. |
| 2) |
Figures for the previous periods / year have been regrouped / reclassified wherever necessary. |
| 3) |
In October 2008, the Company moved the Nano project from Singur in West Bengal to Sanand in Gujarat. In June 2011, the newly elected Government of West Bengal (State Government) enacted a law cancelling the land lease
agreement at Singur, and took over possession of the land. The Company challenged the constitutional validity of the law. In June 2012, the Calcutta High Court declared the law unconstitutional and restored Company’s rights under the land lease
agreement. The State Government filed an appeal in the Supreme Court of India in August 2012, which is pending disposal. Though the Company continues to rigorously press its rights, contentions and claims in the matter, the Company has been advised
that the time it may take in disposal of the appeal is uncertain. The Company has also been advised that it has a good case and can strongly defend the appeal, but the questions that arise are issues of constitutional law and thus the result of the
appeal cannot be predicted. In these circumstances, in view of the uncertainty on the timing of resolution, following the course of prudence, the management has during the quarter ended December 31, 2014, made a provision for carrying capital
cost of buildings at Singur amounting to Rs. 309.88 crores included under the head “other expenses” excluding other assets (electrical installations etc.) and expenses written off / provided in earlier years, security expenses, lease rent
and claim for interest on the whole amount (including Rs. 309.88 crores). The Company shall however continue to pursue the case and assert its rights and its claims in the Courts. |
| 4) |
Other income for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014, includes |
| |
(a) |
profit of Rs. 13.49 crores (Rs. 1,947.90 crores for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2013) on divestment of investment in a foreign subsidiary company to TML Holdings Pte Ltd, Singapore, a wholly
owned subsidiary. |
| |
(b) |
dividend from subsidiary companies Rs. Nil and Rs. 1,623.41 crores, respectively (Rs. 9.09 crores and Rs. 1,555.80 crores for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2013, respectively). |
| 5) |
During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company has issued USD 500 million 4.625% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2020 and USD 250 million 5.750% Senior Unsecured Notes due 2024. The proceeds have been
used to refinance existing External Commercial Borrowing (ECB) of the Company of USD 500 million and balance proceeds are being used to incur new additional capital expenditure and other permitted purposes as per RBI ECB guidelines. As the ECB
has been prepaid, the unamortised exchange loss (net) of Rs. 216.07 crores and the borrowing cost of Rs. 27.08 crores as at September 30, 2014 have been debited to Statement of Profit and Loss during the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
|
| 6) |
In terms of the proviso to clause 3(i) of Part A of Schedule II to the Companies Act, 2013 (the Act), the Company has decided to retain the useful life hitherto adopted for various categories of fixed assets, which are
in certain cases, different from those prescribed in Schedule II to the Act. Based on the policy followed by the Company of continuous and periodic assessment, the estimated useful life and residual value adopted so far is appropriate.
|
| 7) |
The Company is engaged mainly in the business of automobile products consisting of all types of commercial and passenger vehicles including financing of the vehicles sold by the Company. These, in the context of
Accounting Standard 17 on Segment Reporting, as specified in the Companies (Accounting Standards) Rules, 2006, are considered to constitute one single primary segment. |
| 8) |
Public shareholding of Ordinary shares as on December 31, 2014 excludes 21.25% (20.50% as on December 31, 2013 and 21.25% as on March 31, 2014) of Citibank N.A. as Custodian for Depository shares.
|
| 9) |
The Statutory Auditors have carried out an audit of the above results stated in Part I(B) for the quarter and nine months ended December 31, 2014. |
