Tata Motors to Capitalise on GST 2.0 with New Electric and ICE Trucks

As per news report from PTI, Tata Motors is seizing the opportunity presented by GST 2.0 to expand its range of commercial vehicles. The company is introducing new electric and internal combustion engine (ICE) trucks to strengthen its market presence. 

GST 2.0 and the Revival of Freight Demand 

The introduction of GST 2.0 has led to a significant revival in freight demand across India. Tata Motors is capitalising on this momentum by launching an extensive lineup of trucks, including both electric and ICE models. The company aims to cater to the evolving needs of the commercial vehicle market, which has seen a notable recovery in recent months. 

Industry-wide registrations increased by 25.8% between Q2 and Q3, with Tata Motors outperforming the market with a 29.4% growth in volumes. This surge has resulted in an increased market share for the company, now holding 35.7% of the overall commercial vehicle market and a dominant 56.7% in the heavy vehicle category of 28 tonnes and above. 

New Truck Portfolio and Electrification Efforts 

Central to Tata Motors' strategy is the introduction of 17 next-generation trucks. These include electric models built on the Intelligent Modular Electric Vehicle Architecture (I-MOEV) and upgraded diesel platforms.  

The electric range, under the Tata Trucks.ev brand, spans payloads from 7 to 55 tonnes. Developed in collaboration with customers, these vehicles have been extensively tested in real-world conditions, covering over 3,50,000 kilometres across various sectors.

Enhancements in Safety and Performance

The entire truck portfolio now meets Euro crash norms under the ECE R29 03 standard, featuring up to 23 India-specific advanced active safety features. 

Addressing Cost Pressures 

Despite cost pressures from rising input costs, Tata Motors has implemented only a marginal 1% price increase from January 1. The company is closely monitoring the situation to ensure its new launches remain competitively priced.

As of January 20, 2026, at 3:30 PM, Tata Motors Commercial Vehicle share price on NSE was closed at ₹428.90 down by 2.83% from the previous closing price. 

Conclusion
