India Business Drives Growth

The strong stock performance followed Q4 FY26 results that exceeded analyst expectations. Tata Motors' passenger vehicle division in India reported robust sales, with Ebitda margins climbing to 8.7 percent. Standalone Indian revenues increased 50 percent year-on-year to ₹19,200 crore, and gross profit almost tripled. For the full fiscal year FY26, Indian revenue grew 22 percent to ₹59,700 crore.

JLR Returns to Profitability

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) returned to profitability in Q4, with Ebit margins reaching 9.2 percent, a significant reversal from its third-quarter losses. This improvement was driven by higher volumes, reduced depreciation, and favorable foreign exchange movements, although gross margins decreased from the previous quarter. Despite a 14.4 percent year-on-year volume decline for the full year, JLR's operational performance is showing signs of recovery. The company plans significant cost-saving measures and capital expenditure over the next few years.
