TATA Motors' Journey To The Top: How Did TATA Motors Become India's Biggest Automobile Company?

Tata Motors has built a strong range of vehicles over the years, including cars, buses, trucks, and military vehicles. They entered the automotive industry in 1954 and have since become one of the world's leading manufacturers. As India¡¯s biggest automotive company, Tata Motors operates in several countries such as the UK, South Korea, Indonesia, and Thailand, striving to introduce innovative products that appeal to younger customers.

The renowned automotive brand made waves in 1986 with the introduction of the Tata 407 Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV). Its reliability and performance made it popular not only in India but also in many other countries worldwide. Let¡¯s take a look at some key milestones achieved by the company:

TATA Motors' Journey To The Top TATA Motors' Journey To The Top | Forbes India

Tata Motors has expanded its presence beyond commercial vehicles and achieved significant growth in the light vehicle sector. Today, it is the third fastest-growing brand among the top 20 automotive companies globally, with a brand value higher than Airtel and Infosys. Their vehicles are sold not only in India but also in many other countries across Africa, APAC, and Latin America, while Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles are available in Europe.

India's third-largest carmaker

According to Forbes India, on February 13, a day before Valentine¡¯s Day, Tata Motors sprung a surprise, a bombshell of sorts. For the first time ever, an Indian automaker had reduced prices of its electric cars in the country, something akin a strategy followed by Tesla in the US, as battery prices see a significant drop. The price of the company¡¯s wildly popular Nexon had been slashed by Rs 1.2 lakh, with another model, the Tiago, receiving a Rs 70,000 discount. Tata Motors is India¡¯s largest electric vehicle (EV) maker, cornering nearly 80 percent of the market.
