For the company's India business, with CV set to remain flat and PV growing in single-digits, the brokerage believes, the key driver of Ebitda growth would be improving margins in the EV business.

ICICI Securities Report

Tata Motors Ltd.'s consolidated Q1 FY25 Ebitda, at Rs 158 billion, beat consensus’ Rs 152 billion estimate. Jaguar Land Rover reported Ebitdam at 15.5%, down 40 basis points QoQ. With JLR’s volume growth set to stabilise at ~5%, Ebitm stabilising at ~8–9% and capex moving up to £3.5 billion, we believe in FY25–26E, it would be tough for JLR to surpass the £2.3 billion free cash flow achieved in FY24.

For Tata Motors’ India business, with commercial vehicles set to remain flat and passenger vehicles growing in single-digits, we believe, the key driver of Ebitda growth would be improving margins in the EV business.

Downgrade to Sell, from Reduce, with a SoTP-based revised target price of Rs 923 (earlier Rs 915) implying 12.4 times/2.6 ties FY26E India/JLR enterprise value/Ebitda.
