Tata Motors Turnover increases by 8.6%, Net Profit up by 22% in 1st Qtr, Exports post strong 113 % growth in volumes

Tata Motors Limited, India’s largest automotive company, today reported Revenues (net of excise) of Rs. 3878.1 crores for the Quarter ended June 30, 2005, an increase of 8.6%, compared to Rs. 3572.1 crores in the corresponding period in the previous year. Profit Before Tax was Rs. 360 crores, an increase of 18.8%, against Rs. 303 crores. Net Profit increased by 22.1% to Rs. 272.67 crores compared to Rs. 223.36 crores.

The Operating Margin for the Quarter was 12.6%, compared to the Operating Margin of 12% for the corresponding period in the previous year. This increase has been a result of cost control initiatives taken by the Company.

The results of the Quarter include the operating performance of the erstwhile Tata Finance Limited, which has been merged with the Company.

The uncertainty caused by changes in emission norms and the resultant shortages of some critical components impacted sales during the Quarter. Domestic sales of commercial vehicles stood at 37,228, a decline of 7%. The sales of Light Commercial Vehicles increased by 22% mainly due to introduction of Ace, India’s first mini truck, launched in May, which has generated an enthusiastic response. Passenger vehicles domestic sales stood at 41,191 units, an increase of 1%.

The Company exported 9,073 vehicles during the Quarter, a strong growth of 113%. Exports of commercial vehicles increased by 74%, and passenger vehicles by 241%. Exports to new markets such as South Africa and Turkey mainly contributed to this growth. The FOB value of Exports was Rs. 435.25 crores (US$ 100.01 million), an increase of 105%.

Consequent to the above, the subscribed and issued capital of the Company will increase by 1,45,04,949 shares of Rs.10/- each which would result in approx. 4.01% dilution of the equity.

    2. To ensure uniform set of accounting policies, in respect of some of the items of the transferor company (TFL), an amount of Rs. 18.59 crores (net of deferred tax), has been adjusted to the General Reserve, in accordance with the Accounting Standard 14 read with Accounting Standard 5.
