Tata Motors is set to undergo a significant corporate restructuring on October 14, splitting into two distinct listed companies: Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd (TMPV) and a newly formed Tata Motors Ltd, focused solely on commercial vehicles.

Tata Motors Demerger Structure

• The existing listed company will be renamed Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd, which will house the passenger vehicles segment, including the iconic Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) brand.

Special Pre-Open Session on NSE

To facilitate the demerger, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) has scheduled a special pre-open session on Tuesday, October 14, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM. This session will accommodate trading adjustments ahead of the stock split and restructuring.

Tata Motors Demerger Key Dates

Impact on Stock Price

Despite the demerger buzz, Tata Motors' stock has dropped approximately 11% year-to-date, weighed down by challenges in its JLR division. Over the last month alone, the stock has declined by 5%.

Post-demerger, Tata Motors' share price will be adjusted to reflect the division of business operations. The combined market value of both companies is expected to remain comparable to the pre-demerger valuation.
