COMPANY HISTORY

Tata Motors Limited is an Indian multinational automotive manufacturing company,

headquartered in Mumbai, India, which is part of the Tata Group. The company
produces passenger cars, trucks, vans, coaches, buses.[5]

Formerly known as Tata Engineering and Locomotive Company (TELCO), the company was
founded in 1945 as a manufacturer of locomotives. The company manufactured its first
commercial vehicle in 1954 in a collaboration with Daimler-Benz AG, which ended in 1969.
Tata Motors entered the passenger vehicle market in 1988 with the launch of
the TataMobile followed by the Tata Sierra in 1991, becoming the first Indian manufacturer
to achieve the capability of developing a competitive indigenous automobile.[6] In 1998, Tata
launched the first fully indigenous Indian passenger car, the Indica, and in 2008 launched
the Tata Nano, the world's most affordable car. Tata Motors acquired the South Korean
truck manufacturer Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company in 2004. Tata Motors has been
the parent company of Jaguar Land Rover since the company established it for the
acquisition of Jaguar Cars and Land Rover from Ford in 2008.

Tata Motors' principal subsidiaries include British premium car maker Jaguar Land
Rover (the maker of Jaguar and Land Rover cars) and the South Korean commercial vehicle
manufacturer Tata Daewoo. Tata Motors has a construction-equipment manufacturing joint
venture with Hitachi (Tata Hitachi Construction Machinery), and a joint venture
with Stellantis which manufactures automotive components and Fiat Chrysler and Tata
branded vehicles. On 12 October 2021, private equity firm TPG invested $1 billion in Tata
Motors' electric vehicle subsidiary.

Tata Motors has auto manufacturing and vehicle plants

in Jamshedpur, Pantnagar, Lucknow, Sanand, Dharwad, and Pune in India, as well as in
Argentina, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Thailand. It has research and

made it one of the best-selling cars in the history of the Indian automobile industry. A newer
version of the car, named Indica V2, was a major improvement over the previous version and
quickly became a mass favorite. Tata Motors also successfully exported large numbers of car
to South Africa. The success of the Indica played a key role in the growth of Tata Motors.[10]

the introduction of new products such as buses (Starbus and Globus, jointly developed with
subsidiary Hispano Carrocera) and trucks (Novus, jointly developed with subsidiary Tata
Daewoo).

In 2006, Tata formed a joint venture with the Brazil-based Marco polo, Tata Marco polo Bus,
to manufacture fully built buses and coaches.[14]

ACCOUNTING CONCEPTS FOLLOWED BY THE TATA

MOTORS

Going concern concept

The Company''s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern

basis.
The Company has performed an assessment of its financial position as at March 31, 2022
and forecasts of the Company for a period of eighteen months from the date of these financial
statements (the ‘Going Concern Assessment Period'' and the ''Foreseeable Future'').
In developing these forecasts, the Company has modelled a base case, which has been
further sensitised using severe but plausible downside scenarios. The base case covers the Going
Concern

Cost recognition concept

Costs and expenses are recognised when incurred and are classified according to them
nature. Expenditure are capitalized where appropriate, in accordance with the policy for internally
generated
intangible assets and represents employee costs, stores and other manufacturing supplies, and other
expenses
incurred for construction and product development undertaken by the Company.

TATA MOTORS ADOPTED INDIAN ACOUNTING STANDARDS

financial statements under Indian GAAP and annual financial statements under IFRS. The Company
will be required to prepare annual and interim financial statements under Indian Accounting Standard
101 "First-time Adoption of Indian Accounting Standards", or Ind-AS from April 1, 2016.

Ind-AS differs in certain respects from Indian GAAP and IFRS and therefore financial statements
prepared under Ind-AS may be substantially different from financial statements prepared under Indian
GAAP or IFRS. There can be no assurance that the Company's financial condition, results of
operation, cash flow or changes in shareholders' equity will not be presented differently under Ind-AS
compared to Indian GAAP or IFRS. When the Company adopts Ind-AS reporting, it may encounter
difficulties in the ongoing process of implementing and enhancing its management information
systems. There can be no assurance that the adoption of Ind-AS will not adversely affect the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.

RATIO ANALYSIS

Ratio analysis is a quantitative method of gaining insight into a company's liquidity,

operational efficiency, and profitability by studying its financial statements such as the
balance sheet and income statement. Ratio analysis is a cornerstone of fundamental equity
analysis.
Ratio analysis compares line-item data from a company's financial statements to reveal
insights regarding profitability, liquidity, operational efficiency, and solvency.
Ratio analysis can mark how a company is performing over time, while comparing a
company to another within the same industry or sector.
Ratio analysis may also be required by external parties that set benchmarks often tied to risk.
While ratios offer useful insight into a company, they should be paired with other metrics, to
obtain a broader picture of a company's financial health.
Examples of ratio analysis include current ratio, gross profit margin ratio, inventory turnover
ratio.

Investors and analysts employ ratio analysis to evaluate the financial health of companies by
scrutinizing past and current financial statements. Comparative data can demonstrate how a
company is performing over time and can be used to estimate likely future performance. This
data can also compare a company's financial standing with industry averages while
measuring how a company stacks up against others within the same sector.
Investors can use ratio analysis easily, and every figure needed to calculate the ratios is found
on a company's financial statements.

Ratios are comparison points for companies. They evaluate stocks within an industry.
Likewise, they measure a company today against its historical numbers. In most cases, it is
also important to understand the variables driving ratios as management has the flexibility to,
at times, alter its strategy to make its stock and company ratios more attractive. Generally,
ratios are typically not used in isolation but rather in combination with other ratios. Having a
good idea of the ratios in each of the four previously mentioned categories will give you a
comprehensive view of the company from different angles and help you spot potential red
flags.

Types of Ratio Analysis

The various kinds of financial ratios available may be broadly grouped into the following six
silos, based on the sets of data they provide:

1. Liquidity Ratios
Liquidity ratios measure a company's ability to pay off its short-term debts as they become
due, using the company's current or quick assets. Liquidity ratios include the current ratio,
quick ratio, and working capital ratio.

2. Solvency Ratios
Also called financial leverage ratios, solvency ratios compare a company's debt levels with its
assets, equity, and earnings, to evaluate the likelihood of a company staying afloat over the
long haul, by paying off its long-term debt as well as the interest on its debt. Examples of
solvency ratios include: debt-equity ratios, debt-assets ratios, and interest coverage ratios.

3. Profitability Ratios
These ratios convey how well a company can generate profits from its operations. Profit
margin, return on assets, return on equity, return on capital employed, and gross margin ratios
are all examples of profitability ratios.
4. Efficiency Ratios
Also called activity ratios, efficiency ratios evaluate how efficiently a company uses its assets
and liabilities to generate sales and maximize profits. Key efficiency ratios include: turnover
ratio, inventory turnover, and days' sales in inventory.

5. Coverage Ratios
Coverage ratios measure a company's ability to make the interest payments and other
obligations associated with its debts. Examples include the times interest earned ratio and the
debt-service coverage ratio.

6. Market Prospect Ratios

These are the most commonly used ratios in fundamental analysis. They include dividend
yield, P/E ratio, earnings per share (EPS), and dividend payout ratio. Investors use these
metrics to predict earnings and future performance.

For example, if the average P/E ratio of all companies in the S&P 500 index is 20, and the
majority of companies have P/Es between 15 and 25, a stock with a P/E ratio of seven would
be considered undervalued. In contrast, one with a P/E ratio of 50 would be considered
overvalued. The former may trend upwards in the future, while the latter may trend
downwards until each aligns with its intrinsic value.

FUND FLOW STATEMENT AND CASH FLOW STATEMENT

A fund flow refers to the inflow and outflow of funds or assets for a company and is often
measured on a monthly or quarterly basis. A fund flow statement reveals the reasons for these
changes or anomalies in the financial position of a company between two balance sheets.

A fund flow refers to the inflow and outflow of funds or assets for a company and is often

Assets

1. Cash

2. Receivables

3. Inventory

Current Liabilities

1. Payables

Net working capital is the total change in the business's working capital, calculated as total
change in current assets minus total change in current liabilities.

For example: If the inventory of a business increased from $700,000 to $750,000, then this
increase of $50,000 is the increase in the working capital for the corresponding period and
will be mentioned on the funds flow statement. But the same would not be reflected in the
cash flow statement as it does not involve cachets

The importance of fund flow statements

A funds flow statement is an essential factor in revealing how funds are used. A fund flow
statement shows financial analysts how to assess the fund flow of an organization in the near
future.

Usually, the preparation of these statements is followed by a funds flow statement analysis. It
serves as a financial parameter that helps a company to control its finance and develop a
better strategy for long term financial planning, and to utilize short term and long term funds.
Fund flow statement analysis is a comparison between various aspects of a Balance Sheet.
While evaluating this statement, it is also vital to understand all the aspects.

Assets
If the asset section of a balance sheet experiences growth, it implies that the company has
purchased assets by spending funds. These assets might then result in the inflow of funds in
the future. Here are some examples:

Fixed assets
Short-term loans
Long-term loans
Inventory
Cash and cash equivalents
Receivables
Present investments
On the other hand, if the assets section shows a decline, it means that the company has sold
some of its assets to maintain fund inflow.

Liabilities
In a Funds Flow Statement, any increase in liabilities means the organization has funds
inflow which needs to be paid. Some of the examples are:

Lenders
Customers
Vendors
Employees
Shareholders
Conversely, a decline in liabilities implies that the current obligations have been satisfied.
remain financially sound, part of every company's accounting process should be to frequently
analyze its fund flow statement (and other financial statements) to make appropriate business
decisions.

Fund flow statements, along with profit and loss account statements and balance sheets
portray the company’s present financial position when approaching banks, investors etc. for
working capital funds and loans. Today, most businesses use advanced technology for
accounting to draw up these complicated financial statements instantly.
Ten key benefits of a fund flow statement
1. Shows financial position. A funds flow statement helps indicate the addition in profits,
which is a boon to shareholders.

2. Indicates addition of share capital. The fund flow statement can highlight changes in share
capital.

3. Shows addition or reduction in share premium. The fund flow statement shows
fluctuations in share premiums. This increases when shares are issued at premium or when
preferential shares or debentures are reduced and the funds flow statement shows key
information at a glance.

4. Reveals profit or loss of operation. The fund flow statement clearly shows whether an
organization is earning profit or sustaining a loss.

5. Reveals addition in long-term borrowings. The statement can show the additional amount
borrowed by issuing debentures.

6. Indicates decrease in working capital. The statement shows the reduction in working
capital (i.e., when current assets are less than current liabilities).

7. Fund flow statement acts as a guide. The statement allows management to learn about
future problems, needs, and fundraising requirements, helping the company to avoid financial
problems.

8. Helpful in sound dividend policy. Sometimes, a company may have sufficient profit, yet it
is advisable not to distribute dividends due to lack of cash or liquidity. The fund flow
statement is useful in informing sound dividend policy.

9. Helpful in long-term borrowings. Before advancing long-term loans, lenders may ask for
several years of fund flow statements to learn the firm’s creditworthiness.
10. Useful information for investors. Before investing, some investors study a company’s
fund flow statements to know how funds are raised and used (e.g., whether funds are
adequate for the payment of interest and principal sum).

CASH FLOW STATEMENT
"Cash" is a vital element of any business entity, as it plays a crucial role throughout the entire
lifetime of a business enterprise. 'Cash' for a 'Business' has been aptly compared with the
'Blood' for a 'Human Body'. 'Cash' is required to meet day-to-day requirements for running
the business and for making payments to 'Suppliers', 'Wages/Salaries to the Employees',
'Interest', 'Dividends', etc. Maintenance of an optimum level of cash is, therefore, of
paramount importance for a business entity.

Cash flow means inflows and outflows of cash and cash equivalents. Cash comprises of cash
in hand and demand deposits with banks. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid
investments which are readily convertible into cash.

Cash Flow Statement' may be defined as a statement, which depicts the changes in financial
position of a business organisation due to 'Inflows' and 'Outflows' of cash. Analysis of such
'Inflows' and 'Outflows' is necessitated for short-range business activities.

Objectives of Cash Flow Statement:

The fundamental objective behind the preparation of the 'Cash Flow Statement' is to
underline and emphasis the changes that have taken place in the 'Cash Position' during a
specific period. The sources from where the cash was procured by an organisation and the
uses, to which it (the cash) was put, are elaborated in the cash flow statement.

Advantages of Cash Flow Statement :

Preparation and analysis of cash flow statement have the following advantages :

1) It facilitates measurement of the business enterprise's ability to meet its fixed charges.

2) It is useful in bringing to the forefront the business enterprise's status with regard to its
‘Liquidity' and 'Solvency' during adverse conditions.
3) It is helpful in assessing the changes in 'Cash Position' between 'Profit & Loss Account'
and 'Balance Sheet' items of two consecutive accounting periods.

4) Disclosures made by the 'Cash Flow Statement enables the management of a business
enterprise to initiate preventive measures in financially difficult situations.

5) Identification of 'Discretionary Cash Flows' from business transactions becomes possible

through 'Cash Flow Analysis'.

6) It facilitates listing out the 'Potential Financial Flows', which may be put to use during
crisis conditions.

7) Cash Flow Statement reveals the information with regard to the availability of 'Cash'. Such
information is very useful in deciding the quantum of 'Dividend' to be distributed to the
shareholders or in extreme cases whether or not to skip a dividend payment altogether.
