Mumbai, Nov 13 – Tata Motors LTD announced a sharp reversal in its finances for the July‑September quarter, reporting a consolidated loss of ₹867 crore for Q2 FY26, after posting a ₹498 crore profit in the same period a year earlier.
The company, which now runs the commercial‑vehicle arm after a recent demerger, turned a profit on revenue that rose 6 % year‑on‑year to ₹18,585 crore – up from ₹17,535 crore in Q2 FY25. Total costs climbed 15 % to ₹19,296 crore, driven mainly by higher material prices and a one‑time fair‑value hit of ₹2,027 crore on equity investments. That hit alone pushed the quarter into a ₹900 crore net loss, though profit before tax (excluding exceptional items) remained at ₹600 crore.
Tata Motors also slipped into a month‑over‑month loss, after earning a ₹1,397 crore profit in the April‑June period. Its shares finished trading at ₹320.25, down 2.26 % from the previous close of ₹327.65.
MD & CEO Girish Wagh called the results “a historic milestone” after the company successfully listed on both BSE and NSE following the demerger. He highlighted a 12 % year‑on‑year volume uptick, sharper product availability, a refined pricing strategy, and intensified marketing pushes. “The launch of GST 2.0 and the festive season helped spark demand across segments,” he added.
