Tata Motors Q3 FY25 Profit Falls 22%, Lags Behind Market Expectations

Tata Motors reported a 22% year-on-year decline in Q3 FY25 profit, dropping to Rs 5,451 crore from Rs 7,025 crore last year. The decline was driven by weaker performances in both its Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) division, where pre-tax profit fell 12%, and the domestic car segment, which saw a 38% drop.

Tata Motors Q3 FY25 Profit Falls 22%, Lags Behind Market Expectations


Tata Motors reported a 22% year-on-year decline in its Q3 FY25 profit, which fell to Rs 5,451 crore, compared to Rs 7,025 crore during the same period last year. This significant drop was mainly driven by weaker performances in its Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) division and the domestic car segment. While the company faced challenges, its SUV sales experienced growth, helping to offset some of the losses.

Key Factors Behind the Profit Decline

The sharp profit dip in Q3 was largely due to a 12% drop in JLR’s pre-tax profit and a 38% decline in earnings from Tata Motors’ domestic car business. The company’s EBIT margin hit 9%, the highest in a decade, though its EBITDA margin decreased by 200 basis points to 14.2%. Despite these setbacks, Tata Motors’ total revenue rose by 3% to Rs 1.13 lakh crore, signaling some resilience amid the difficulties.

Analyst Expectations Fall Short

Several analysts had expected Tata Motors to offer substantial discounts in an attempt to boost demand, which in turn could negatively impact its earnings. Unfortunately, these projections seemed to have played out as anticipated, contributing to the disappointing profit figures.
