Tata Motors group is strategically navigating a complex web of global supply chain challenges. The company is better prepared due to lessons learned from the semiconductor crisis during the COVID-19 pandemic, said top officials on Tuesday.
Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), Tata's British subsidiary facing increased tariffs on US exports, is not planning to establish a manufacturing presence in America despite the financial impact, according to Group CFO PB Balaji.
While acknowledging potential sales shrinkage in the US due to tariffs, Balaji emphasized market activation strategies and rerouting demand globally as key coping mechanisms. Meanwhile, China's rare earth export restrictions have not disrupted Tata's production plans as alternative supply measures are in place.
