Natarajan Chandrasekaran, Chairman commented “In FY 18, JLR delivered profitable growth despite challenging market conditions. We invested for growth, launched exciting new products and established landmark partnerships. In the near term, the challenges of market, technology and geo-political uncertainties are likely to persist. This is the 10th year of Tata’s acquisition of JLR. In this period, we grew 5 times, strengthened our differentiated premium brands, built leading edge technical capabilities and improved profitability by 1300bps. Looking ahead, we will draw inspiration from this proven legacy to create value over the long term and drive each of these further. We will also focus on cost efficiencies, drive operating leverage and manage capital spends prudently.

In the domestic business, the “Turnaround” results are clearly visible. We gained market share in both CV and PV with strong improvement in profitability and positive cash flows. With “Turnaround 2.0” we will accelerate our efforts to “Win Decisively” in CV, “Win Sustainably” in PV and embed the turnaround culture in the company.

With these focused efforts, I am confident that Tata Motors Group shall deliver Competitive, Consistent and Cash Accretive Growth in the coming years”


JAGUAR LAND ROVER

BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS

 

    Strong demand for Range Rover Velar, new Discovery and Jaguar F-PACE

 

    Exciting range of new cars introduced: Jaguar I-PACE, the world’s first fully electric premium SUV is now available to order, placing the company at the forefront of the electric revolution; the compact E-PACE, which combines sports car looks with SUV practicality; Jaguar XF Sportbrake and the first plug-in hybrid models of the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport.

 

    Opening of an engine plant at the company’s joint venture in China and construction of a manufacturing facility in Nitra, Slovakia, where production is due to begin in 2018

 

    Will continue to invest circa £4.5 billion in the 2018-19 financial year for in new models and technologies

FINANCIALS

For the Fiscal year 2018, Retail sales grew 1.7% year-on-year to 614,309 cars, with demand up in China (19.9%), North America (4.7%) and in Overseas Markets (3.4%). These regional increases offset lower figures in the UK (-12.8%) and Europe (-5.3%), where sales were impacted by consumer uncertainty surrounding diesel models. The increase in sales was driven by new models, including the latest Land Rover Discovery, the award-winning Range Rover Velar (World Car Design of the Year), the long-wheelbase Jaguar XFL in China and continued solid demand for the Jaguar F-PACE.

Revenues increased 6.0% to £25.8B. Pre-tax profits were £1.5B including a one-off £437m pension credit reported in the first quarter partially offset by one-off engineering charges (“Fit for Future”) in Q4 ’18. The EBIT margin before these “Fit for Future” charges was 4.2%, compared to 5.9% a year ago. The lower margin mainly reflected higher depreciation and amortisation as a result of the significant investment in the business and slower sales growth than in recent past. For the fourth quarter, pre-tax profits were £364m on revenues of £7.6B. During the financial year, the company invested a record £4.2B, over half of which was in new vehicles and technologies.

Dr. Ralf Speth, Jaguar Land Rover CEO, said: ““Despite external headwinds, these results reflect the underlying strengths of Jaguar Land Rover. Sales have reached a new high, as strong demand in our key overseas markets offset the challenging conditions in the UK and other parts of Europe. Our sustained growth and business resilience reflects the support we have received over the past 10 years from Tata. As we mark this important milestone and as we shape our future, we will continue with over-proportional investment in new vehicles, manufacturing facilities and next generation automotive technologies in line with our Autonomous, Connected, Electric and Shared strategy to provide our customers with the next generation of Jaguars and Land Rovers. We are confident of our plans to drive robust growth and efficiencies to ensure that we continue to deliver solid results and generate sustainable profitable growth to support continued investment with positive free cash flows in the medium to long term.

We are one team with pioneering spirit, delivering outstanding new cars, with the best of British design and engineering integrity, leading in customer desirability.”

ADDITIONAL COMMENTARY ON FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FINANCE COSTS AND TAX

Finance costs increased by 14Cr to  1,178Cr during Q4 FY’18 vs prior year. In FY 18, they increased by  444Cr to  4,682Cr. The increase is due to higher borrowings in both TML (S) and JLR.

The Effective Tax Rate for FY18 was 32.3%. This broadly reflects non- recognition of tax credits in the Standalone business and one-time impact of reduction in tax rates on deferred tax assets (UK reduced from 19% to 17% and US reduced from 35% to 21%).

JOINT VENTURES, ASSOCIATES AND OTHER INCOME

In the quarter, Net profit from joint ventures and associates contributed  845Cr compared with  411Cr in prior year. Other income was  364Cr versus  234Cr in the same quarter prior year. The increase is coming from mainly the additional interest incomes earned during the year.

For the year FY ’18, Net profit from joint ventures and associates contributed  2,278Cr vs  1,493Cr in FY’17. Other income was  889Cr versus  755Cr in the prior year.

To the Board of Directors of

Tata Motors Limited

Report on the Audit of Consolidated Financial Results (prepared as per Ind AS)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated annual financial results of Tata Motors Limited (hereinafter referred to as “the Holding Company”) and its subsidiaries (the Holding Company and its subsidiaries together referred to as “the Group”), its associates, its jointly controlled entities and joint operations for the year ended 31 March 2018, attached herewith, being submitted by the Holding Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (‘Listing Regulations’). Attention is drawn to the fact that the figures for the quarter ended 31 March 2018 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in these consolidated financial results are the balancing figures between consolidated audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the published year to date consolidated figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year. Also the figures up to the end of the third quarter had only been reviewed and not subjected to audit.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Results (prepared as per Ind AS)

These Consolidated financial results have been prepared on the basis of the consolidated annual financial statements and reviewed quarterly consolidated financial results up to the end of the third quarter. The Holding Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of these consolidated financial results that give a true and fair view of the net profit/ loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information of the Group including its associates and jointly controlled entities and joint operations in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as per Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the Listing Regulations. The respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates and jointly controlled entities and joint operations are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records for safeguarding the assets of the Group and its associates and its jointly controlled entities and joint operations and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; the selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and the design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the consolidated financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, which have been used for the purpose of presentation of the consolidated financial results by the Directors of the Holding Company, as aforesaid.


Independent Auditors’ Report on annual consolidated financial results of Tata Motors Limited pursuant to Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Results (prepared as per Ind AS) (continued)

In preparing the consolidated financial results, the respective Board of Directors of the companies included in the Group and of its associates, jointly controlled entities and joint operations are responsible for assessing the ability of the Group and of its associates, jointly controlled entities and joint operations to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial results based on our audit of the consolidated annual financial statements. While conducting the audit, we have taken into account the relevant provisions of the Listing Regulations and the accounting and auditing standards.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under Section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial results are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the consolidated financial results. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial results, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Holding Company’s preparation of the consolidated financial results that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial results.

We are also responsible to conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of Group and of its associates, jointly controlled entities and joint operations to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in the auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause Group and its associates, jointly controlled entities and joint operations to cease to continue as a going concern.

We believe that the audit evidence obtained by us and the audit evidence obtained by the other auditors in terms of their reports referred to in sub-paragraph 1 of the Other Matters paragraph below, is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the consolidated financial results.

Notes:-

 

1) The above results were reviewed and recommended by the Audit Committee and approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on May 23, 2018.

 

2) Consequent to the introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) with effect from July 1, 2017, Central Excise, Value Added Tax (VAT), etc have been replaced by GST. In accordance with Ind AS 18 on Revenue and Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013, GST, GST Compensation Cess, etc. are not included in Income from operations for applicable periods. In view of the aforesaid restructuring of indirect taxes, Income from operations for quarter and year ended March 31, 2018 are not comparable with the previous periods. Following additional information is being provided to facilitate such comparison:

4) Exceptional debit of 1641.38 crores, relates to provision for impairment of certain intangibles under development and capital work-in-progress. The Company reviewed product development programs in capital work-in-progress and consequently provided for impairment for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

 

5) The exceptional credit of 3,609.01 crores (GB£ 437.40 million) for the year ended March 31, 2018, relates to the amendment of the Defined Benefit scheme of Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Plc. On April 3, 2017, Jaguar Land Rover Automotive Plc approved and communicated to its Defined Benefit scheme members that the Defined Benefit Scheme rules were to be amended with effect from April 6, 2017 so that amongst other changes, retirement benefit will be calculated on a career average basis rather than based upon a member’s final salary at retirement. These changes were effective from April 6, 2017 and as a result of the re-measurement of the scheme’s liabilities, the past service credit has been recognized in quarter ended June 30, 2017.

 

6) Figures for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, represent the difference between the audited figures in respect of full financial years and the publised figures for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively which were subject to limited review.

 

7) The Statutory Auditors have carried out an audit of the consolidated financial results for the year ended March 31, 2018.

Auditors Report (Stand Alone)

Independent Auditors’ Report on annual standalone financial results of Tata Motors Limited Pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015

To Board of Directors of

Tata Motors Limited

Report on the Audit of Standalone Financial Results (prepared as per Ind AS)

We have audited the accompanying standalone annual financial results of Tata Motors Limited (‘the Company’) which includes two Joint Operations consolidated on a proportionate basis for the year ended 31 March 2018 attached herewith, being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (‘Listing Regulation’). Attention is drawn to the fact that the figures for the quarter ended 31 March 2018 and the corresponding quarter ended in the previous year as reported in these standalone financial results are the balancing figures between audited figures in respect of full financial year and the published year to date figures up to the end of the third quarter of the relevant financial year, as adjusted to give effect to the scheme of merger explained in note 9 to the standalone financial results.

Management’s Responsibility for the Standalone Financial Results (prepared as per Ind AS)

These standalone financial results have been prepared on the basis of the annual standalone financial statements and audited quarterly standalone financial results upto the end of the third quarter. The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation of these standalone financial results that give a true and fair view of the net profit/loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles laid down in the Companies (Indian Accounting Standards) Rules, 2015 as per Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013 and other accounting principles generally accepted in India and in compliance with Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the Listing Regulations.

The respective Board of Directors of the Company and its joint operations are responsible for maintenance of adequate accounting records for safeguarding the assets of the Company and its joint operations and for preventing and detecting frauds and other irregularities; selection and application of appropriate accounting policies; making judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and design, implementation and maintenance of adequate internal financial controls that were operating effectively for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the accounting records, relevant to the preparation and presentation of the standalone financial results that give a true and fair view and are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the standalone financial results, the respective Board of Directors of the Company and its joint operations are responsible for assessing the ability of the Company and its joint operations to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless respective management either intends to liquidate the Company / joint operation or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.


Independent Auditors’ Report on annual standalone financial results of Tata Motors Limited Pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (Continued)

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these standalone financial results based on our audit of the annual financial statements.

We have taken into account the relevant provisions of the Listing Regulations and the accounting and auditing standards.

We conducted our audit of the standalone financial results in accordance with the Standards on Auditing specified under section 143(10) of the Companies Act, 2013. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the standalone financial results are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the standalone financial results. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the standalone financial results, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal financial control relevant to the Company’s preparation of the standalone financial results that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Company’s Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the standalone financial results.

We are also responsible to conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in the auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the standalone financial results or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify the opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause an entity to cease to continue as a going concern.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion on the standalone financial results.

Opinion

In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us these standalone financial results:

 

(i) are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the Listing Regulations in this regard; and

 

(ii) give a true and fair view of the net loss and other comprehensive income and other financial information for the year ended 31 March 2018.


Independent Auditors’ Report on annual standalone financial results of Tata Motors Limited Pursuant to the Regulation 33 and Regulation 52 read with regulation 63(2) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015 (Continued)

Other Matters

 

1. We did not audit the annual financial results of one joint operation included in the audited standalone financial results, whose financial results reflect total assets of Rs. 6,940.15 crores and net assets of Rs. 3,375.06 crores as at 31 March 2018, total revenues of Rs. 6,994.76 crores and net cash outflows amounting to Rs. 115.57 crores for the year ended on that date, as considered on a proportionate basis in the audited standalone financial results. These financial results have been audited by other auditor whose report has been furnished to us by the management and our report on the annual standalone financial results, in so far as it relates to the amounts and disclosures included in respect of this joint operation, is based solely on the report of the other auditor. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

 

2. The comparative standalone financial results for the year ended 31 March 2017 included in these standalone financial results have been audited by the predecessor auditor, which have been adjusted to give effect to the scheme of merger explained in note 9 to the standalone financial results. The report of the predecessor auditor on the comparative financial information dated 23 May 2017 expressed an unmodified opinion. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

8) The investment in the Company’s subsidiaries Tata Technologies Limited, TAL Manufacturing Solutions Limited and Tata Motors Insurance Broking and Advisory Services Ltd and associate Tata Hitachi Construction Machinery Company Private Ltd and the company’s certain assets related to defence business are classified as “Held for Sale” as they meet the criteria laid out under Ind AS 105.

 

9) Effective April 30, 2018, the Company completed the merger of TML Drivelines Ltd (TML Drivelines) pursuant to a scheme of arrangement of merger.

Accordingly, all assets, liabilities and reserves of TML Drivelines have been recorded in the books of account of the Company at their existing carrying amounts and in the same form. To the extent that there are inter-company loans, advances, deposits, balances or other obligations as between TML Drivelines and the Company, have been eliminated. The difference, between the investments held by the Company and all assets, liabilities and reserves of TML Drivelines, has been debited to capital reserve.

Comparative accounting period presented in the financial statements of the Company has been restated for the accounting impact of the merger, as stated above, as if the merger had occurred from the beginning of the comparative period in the financial statements i.e. April 1, 2016.
