AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY IN INDIA

The Automotive industry in India is one of the largest in the world and one of the fastest growing

globally. India manufactures over 11 million vehicles (including 2 wheeled and 4 wheeled) and

exports about 1.5 million every year. It is the world's second largest manufacturer of motorcycles,

with annual sales exceeding 8.5 million in 2009. India's passenger car and commercial vehicle

manufacturing industry is the seventh largest in the world, with an annual production of more than

2.6 million units in 2009. In 2009, India emerged as Asia's fourth largest exporter of passenger cars,

behind Japan, South Korea and Thailand.

As of 2009, India is home to 40 million passenger vehicles and more than 2.6 million cars were sold

in India in 2009 (an increase of 26%), making the country the second fastest growing automobile

Page 5: Tata Motors Financial History and dividend policy Case

2 | T a t a M o t o r s - F i n a n c i a l h i s t o r y

market in the world. According to the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers, annual car

sales are projected to increase up to 5 million vehicles by 2015 and more than 9 million by 2020.

By 2050, the country is expected to top the world in car volumes with approximately 611 million

vehicles on the nation's roads. (See figure 3)

A chunk of India's car manufacturing industry is based in and around the city of Chennai, also

known as the "Detroit of India" [With the Indian city accounting for 60 per cent of the country's

automotive exports]. Gurgaon and Manesar near New Delhi are hubs where all of the Maruti Suzuki

cars in India are manufactured. The Chakan corridor near Pune, Maharashtra is another vehicular

production hub with companies like General Motors, Volkswagen, Skoda, Mahindra and Mahindra,

Tata Motors, Mercedes Benz, Fiat, Force Motors. Ahmedabad with Tata Motors Nano plant and

Halol with General Motors in Gujarat, Aurangabad in Maharashtra, and Kolkata in West Bengal are

some of the other automotive manufacturing regions around the country.

BACKGROUND OF TATA MOTORS

Tata Motors Limited (Tata Motors) is an automobile company. The Company is engaged mainly in

the business of automobile products consisting of all types of commercial and passenger vehicles,

including financing of the vehicles sold by the Company. The Company has two segments:

automotive and others. The others segment includes construction equipment, engineering solutions

and software operations.

Instigated in the year 1945, Tata Motors has a wide network of retailers and suppliers across India.

It was in 1954 that the company launched its first vehicle. Today more than 3 million Tata cars and

heavy vehicles glide through Indian roads. The company gained the prestige of being the first from

engineering industry of India to be listed under the New York Stock Exchange in September 2004.

Besides being second biggest in the passenger car division, Tata Motors is also ranked as fifth

highest in the category of medium and heavy commercial vehicles at international level. With the

help of its associates, Tata Motors offer high end manufacturing and automotive solutions to its

customers. It's foremost indigenously made car was Tata Indica, followed by a mini-truck Tata Ace

in 2005. In the year 2009, the firm marked its name in the pages of automotive history by

introducing the world's fuel efficient and cheapest car - Tata Nano.

Acquisitions

Tata Motors, the first Company from India's engineering sector to be listed in the New York Stock

Exchange (September 2004), has also emerged as an international automobile company. Tata

Motors has operations in the United Kingdom, South Korea, Thailand and Spain. In 2004 Tata

Motors acquired Daewoo's truck manufacturing unit, now known as Tata Daewoo Commercial

Vehicle, in South Korea. In 2005, Tata Motors acquired 21% of Aragonese Hispano Carrocera

giving it controlling rights of the company. Then in 2007, Tata Motors formed a joint venture with

Marcopolo of Brazil and introduced low-floor buses in the Indian Market. The biggest acquisitions

happened in 2008, when Tata Motors acquired British Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), which includes the

Daimler and Lanchester brand names. On October 16, 2009, the Company has acquired 79% shares

in Tata Hispano Motors Carrocera S.A. by way of exercise of the existing call option, through

mutual agreement with the other share-holder, Investalia S.A., Spain. Consequently, Tata Hispano

Motors Carrocera S.A. has become a 100% subsidiary of the Company. In 2010, Tata Motors

acquired 80% stake in Italy-based design and engineering company Trilix for a consideration of

€1.85 million. The acquisition is in line with the company’s objective to enhance its styling/design

TATA MOTORS DIVIDEND POLICY

TATA motors has a very balanced dividend policy since 1955 (Exhibit 1 & 9). In all, but two years

the company has paid a healthy dividend. Dividend smoothing has enabled the company so pay

dividend even at the cost of negative retained earnings. Despite being a growth company expanding

in new sectors the company has continued to strike a balance between retained earnings and

Page 9: Tata Motors Financial History and dividend policy Case

6 | T a t a M o t o r s - F i n a n c i a l h i s t o r y

dividend payouts. In times when the company has been in crisis they have looked at others

measures of satisfying the needs for liquidity for shareholders like issue of Bonus shares.

Automobile market is cyclic and the effect can be seen in the earnings of TML as well. Whenever

the profits of the company have exceeded expectations, the company has declared an interim

dividend while continuing with the existing payout ratio for regular dividends. Outside India the

company is also listed on the NYSE. The dividend policy of TML has helped build a special

relationship with retail customers who comprise more than 7 percent of the shareholders.

Rights Issue

A rights issue is a way in which a company can sell new shares in order to raise capital. Shares are

offered to existing shareholders in proportion to their current shareholding, respecting their pre-

emption rights. The price at which the shares are offered is usually at a discount to the current share

price, which gives investors an incentive to buy the new shares — if they do not, the value of their

holding is diluted.

A rights issue by a highly geared company intended to strengthen its balance sheet is often a bad

sign. Profits are already low (or negative) and future profits are diluted. Unless the underlying

business is improved, changing its capital structure achieves little. A rights issue to fund expansion

can usually be regarded somewhat more optimistically, although, as with acquisitions, shareholders

should be suspicious because management may be empire-building at their expense (the

usual agency problem with expansion). The rights are normally a tradable security themselves (a

type of short dated warrant). This allows shareholders who do not wish to purchase new shares to

sell the rights to someone who does. Whoever holds a right can choose to buy a new share

(exercise the right) by a certain date at a set price.

Rights Issue in 2001

The Board of Directors of approved the simultaneous Issue of Convertible Debentures and Non-

Convertible Debentures with Detachable Warrants on a rights basis in the ratio of one CD and one

NCD for every five shares (1:5) of the Company held. The Company expected to raise

approximately Rs. 1,228 crores - Rs. 1,382 crores from the proposed rights issue. The proceeds of

Page 10: Tata Motors Financial History and dividend policy Case

7 | T a t a M o t o r s - F i n a n c i a l h i s t o r y

the rights issue was planned to be used for essential capital expenditure and new product

development programs and repayment/ prepayment of expensive borrowings of the Company. The

infusion of long term funds, by way of this rights issue, was expected improve the cash flows and

the debt equity ratio.

Rights Issue in 2008

In May 2008 the company announced its long term financing plan for Jaguar-Land Rover

acquisition. At that time, the Company had announced that a part of the total funds required would

be raised through a Rights Issue to the shareholders of three simultaneous but unlinked securities

namely a) an issue of Ordinary Shares of a total amount of about Rs.2,200 crores; b) an issue of ‘A’

Ordinary Shares having differential voting rights (viz. 1 vote for every 10 shares held) of a total

amount of about Rs.2,000 crores and c) an issue of 0.5% 5-year Convertible Preference Shares of a

total amount of about Rs.3,000 crores, which would be convertible into ‘A’ Ordinary Shares at any

time after 3 years but before 5 years from the date of allotment.

Changes in Capital Market and the level of prices in the stock markets led the Board of Directors to

decide to keep the increase in Share Capital as low as possible, the Board decided -

1.To restrict the Rights Issue only to two simultaneous but unlinked securities namely – (a) an issue

of Ordinary Shares and (b) an issue of ‘A’ Ordinary Shares having differential voting rights, as

already announced; and 2. In place of the issue of Convertible Preference Shares, it is now proposed

to raise the required resources by monetizing a part of the Company’s investments through a phased

divestment of certain investments (preferably as inter-group sales wherever feasible) at prevailing

market prices over the next 6 to 8 months. The funds released from such future divestments

together with those already sold during the current financial year, will form part of the resources to

be raised for repaying the bridging loan taken for the Jaguar-Land Rover acquisition.

2001- 2002 Crisis

Ten years ago, after a decade of strong revenue and margin growth, Tata Motors plunged into an

crisis when the demand for its trucks suddenly collapsed. The lost sales compounded by heavy

investment for its entry into the passenger car business, the cost of complying with new emissions

Page 11: Tata Motors Financial History and dividend policy Case

8 | T a t a M o t o r s - F i n a n c i a l h i s t o r y

standards, and an increasing threat from overseas competitors caused Tata Motors to shock the

markets with a loss of Rs. 500 crores for the fiscal year ending March 2001. During this period for

the first time since 1956 Tata motors didn't declare a dividend. Average share price of TML

dropped from Rs. 217 in 1999-2000 to Rs. 102 in 2001-02.

Over the next two years, the company shaved around 8 billion rupees from its cost base and nursed

itself back to corporate health. The company count not show positive figures for PAT in 2001-02

and didn't declare a dividend in that year. Average share prices fell to Rs 90 in 2001-02Today Tata

Motors ranks as the world's fifth-largest manufacturer of medium and heavy trucks. Even while

keeping a tight grip on costs, Tata Motors moved to the offensive by refocusing its investments on

less cyclical products, including light commercial vehicles, buses, and spare parts; making a

successful entry into passenger cars; and responding to opportunities presented by favourable social

and economic trends.

2008 - 2009 Crisis

TM’s original core business in the passenger car division (small cars in India) was mildly

influenced by the crisis as TM’s passenger car sales decreased by only 5%. The company was much

more negatively affected by the decline in sales of its commercial vehicle division which

represented – not yet taking into account the JLR acquisition – some 2/3 of its turnover. However,

the financial crisis had a much more serious impact [in the last quarter of 2008 and the first quarters

of 2009] because of the ‘burden’ of two major strategic initiatives. The shift of the production site

and postponement of the full Nano launch which was originally scheduled for launch in March

2008 by two years led to unexpected resource needs (new manufacturing site) and a shortfall of

otherwise expected 2008-09 revenues. While this burden was not caused or much exacerbated by

the crisis in the global car industry, the acquisition of JLR only few months before the onset of the

crisis actually affected TM much more: the dramatic decrease in JLR’s

sales (JLR being fully exposed to European and US markets) significantly increased the heavy

losses of the new combined company in FY 2008/09; even more importantly, the refinancing of the

short term bridging loan of $ 3 billion for the acquisition became much more complicated and

costly in a situation of dried up capital markets. The refinancing difficulties and increasing

financing cost contributed to a serious debt overload of TM which might have led to bankruptcy

Page 12: Tata Motors Financial History and dividend policy Case

9 | T a t a M o t o r s - F i n a n c i a l h i s t o r y

(and a take-over) if the TM would have been a stand-alone company and would not have been

protected and supported by its affiliation to the Tata group and its well-connected chairman.

While it is no surprise that the crisis caused (temporary) problems and challenges for TM’s business

it seems much more remarkable how little effect it had on the company’s strategy. TM steered

through the crisis without much change in its path-changing (Nano) as well as its path-breaking

(JLR) strategy initiatives.

The constancy of purpose as well as a continuous and consistent execution of strategic plans was

maintained despite highly skeptical capital market markets which had temporarily withdrawn

support from TM. The unwavering pursuit of a transformational strategy of TM in the face of the

financial crisis can be ultimately explained only by the affiliation of the company to a very strong

and supportive conglomerate with a particular mode of operation: TM is one of the few ‘strategic’

companies of the Tata group; it is guided personally by the Chairman of the Tata Group who has

committed the group to a course of globalization and innovation while relying on India’s

comparative location advantages; it allows the company to sustain long periods of low profitability

and significant investments in resource and capability accumulation; TM profits from the value and

attraction of the TATA brand in its dealings with suppliers, customers and the Government, as well

as in attracting

talented staff; it also profits from various group support services like the groups excellence model,

its acquisition and finance expertise and its training efforts. This inherent ‘affiliation strength’

enabled TM to even use the crisis as an ‘accelerator’ for the implementation of its strategies by

legitimizing a more swift course towards cost cutting in the JLR operations (announced closure of

one plant and shift of significant supply sources to India). It may also have facilitated the far-

reaching changes in TM’s top management as experienced top managers were available due to the

crisis and a change of top management seemed to be justified in view of TM’s difficulties and

temporary low performance. It can therefore be concluded that the financial crisis has not much

affected TMs transformational change or even reinforced and accelerated it.
