India's home-grown auto major Tata Motors on Tuesday unveiled its first sports car, RACEMO, at the international motor show here.

Besides the two-seater sports coupe, the first product under the company's new sub-brand TAMO, the company is showcasing the special editions of its next generation product line-up in the compact segment — sedan TIGOR and SUV NEXON.

Workers of the Tata Motors’ Sanand plant, who refused to take the company transport back home on Wednesday as a mark of protest, have approached the state labour department to help them negotiate their demands with the management.

A tripartite meeting between the workers, labour department officials and company representatives took place on Thursday afternoon to discuss the workers’ demands related to wage hikes.

Tata Motors gained 4% to Rs 467 on the BSE after the company reported 2% increase in total passenger and commercial vehicle sales in February at 47,573 units compared to 46,674 in the same month last year. The company had recorded 1% year on year decline in total sales in the month January.

Domestic sales of Tata Motors' commercial and passenger vehicles were at 42,679 units in February as against 41,532 units in the same month last year, up 2.76 per cent, the company said in a BSE filing.

MUMBAI/NEW DELHI: Tata Motors, India’s largest automobile company by revenue, and Volkswagen Group, Europe’s largest car maker by volume, are said to be at an advanced stage of finalising a partnership that can have a wide-ranging impact on India and other emerging markets.

The contours of the partnership, on whether it will be a joint venture or a technology tie-up, are still being worked out, said five people with knowledge of the matter. They told ET that negotiations are making progress and could culminate in an announcement at the Geneva International Motor Show in March.

Tata Motors dipped 9% to Rs 441 in intra-day trade, extending its Tuesday’s 3.5% decline on the BSE, after the country’s largest automobile company by revenue reported disappointing set of numbers for the quarter ended December 2016 (Q3FY17).

The consolidated net profit during the quarter under review plunged by 96% to Rs 112 crore due to a steep decline in profit at its overseas unit Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and higher losses in domestic operations. The company had reported consolidated profits of Rs 2,953 crore in the third quarter (Q3) of FY16.

The country’s largest automobile maker Tata Motors Ltd (TML) has embarked on a massive restructuring of human resources (HR) that would transform the organisation into a much leaner one with a flat hierarchical structure. Effective April 1, the new structure would be in place.

From a 15-16 level hierarchy, the organisation is moving to a flat five-level hierarchy. Earlier, Tata Motors had three levels in the supervisory grade, five in the managerial grade and around six or seven in the executive grade. Now there would be five grades, L1 to L5, with L1 being the highest. Above these levels, there would be the executive directors, presidents and the managing director.

NEW DELHI: Continuing with its efforts to reclaim lost ground in the Indian passenger vehicles market, Tata Motors will soon launch compact sedan Tigor.

The company today announced that the Kite 5 concept, which was showcased at Auto Expo 2016, will be christened Tata Tigor.

Automobile company shares tumbled on Tuesday, dragging the broader markets down, and giving up part of the post-budget gains.

India’s largest commercial vehicles maker Tata Motors led the losses, falling as much as 2.3% to the day’s lows of Rs 513.25. The S&P BSE Auto index fell 0.93% to 22,079.74 points, with all but one of its constituents in red.

Home-grown automaker Tata Motors is revamping its product strategy for the passenger car segment to safeguard itself from competition coming from technology giants such as Google and Uber.

The company plans to launch two modular platforms and gradually phase out six existing platforms. While many of the products from the current platforms will be also phased out, some of will be transferred to the new modular platforms to be launched in 2018. This has put a question mark on the future of Nano, the much talked-about small car that failed to generate volume.

Tata Motors has launched its new performance brand TAMO, which can be said to be somewhat similar to the ’N’ wing at Hyundai or the Mugen division at Honda. The company will reveal its first product under TAMO, the Futuro on 7th March 2017, ahead of the 2017 Geneva Motor Show. According to the Tata Motors, the Futuro will be "a stunning-looking car for the money." The company will undertake limited production of the car and the production version is expected to hit the market by 2018. It is expected that the two-seater sports coupe Futuro will be priced around Rs 25 lakh.
