Looking ahead, the company is exploring partnerships with battery manufacturers and charging infrastructure providers.
2. Tata Sons
Tata Sons is the investment holding company of the Tata Group.
Tata Sons, the main firm of the Tata Group, is scheduled to undergo another massive initial public offering. Following the RBI’s classification of Tata Sons as a “upper-layer” NBFC (Non-Banking Financial Company) last year, the company must pursue a public listing by September 2025 at the latest. It is anticipated that Tata Sons’ IPO will rank among the largest in India, if not the largest.
The Tata Group comprises over 100 operating companies in seven business sectors: communications and information technology (IT), engineering, materials, services, energy, consumer products and chemicals.
The company has been classified as an upper-layer non-banking financial company (NBFC), supporting and promoting other Tata Group businesses.
3. Tata Capital
Tata Capital, a subsidiary of Tata Sons Limited, was established in 2007. The company is registered with the Reserve Bank of India as a systemically important deposit accepting non-banking financial company.
Tata Capital Limited (“TCL”), the flagship financial services company of the Tata Group, is a subsidiary of Tata Sons Private Limited and is registered with the Reserve Bank of India as a Systemically Important Non-Deposit Accepting Core Investment Company (“CIC”).
Tata Capital has been profitable since its inception and currently has a loan book of INR 1,20,940 crore, with secured loans accounting for 76%. It has wide presence across India serving over 3.3 million customers through its 438 branches. During FY 2023, the company posted its highest ever profits of INR 2,975 crore, marking a sharp growth of 80% Y-o-Y.
As of now, there is no official valuation for the upcoming Tata Group IPO, but it is aiming for a valuation similar to Jio Financial Services, the financial arm of Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Jio, which was around INR 10,000 crore in 2023.
The IPOs offer you an advantage to buying the growing company’s ownership at a very reasonable price which you can afford also. The prosperity of the same company with the time being increases its market capitalization thereby increasing the price value of shares.
4. Tata Advanced Systems
Founded in 2007, Tata Advanced Systems Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tata Sons, and is the strategic Aerospace and Defance arm of the TATA Group. It offers services in aerostructures & aero-engines, airborne platforms & systems, defance & security, and land mobility.
In the financial year 2023, Tata Advanced Systems generated a revenue of INR 3,527 crore which is 15.7% up from the previous year and the profits increased from INR 25.46 crore to INR 34.73 crore in 2023. Given the strong investor interest in defence and space technology companies in the recent past, Tata Advanced Systems IPO will be surely closely watched.
India’s red hot IPO market saw as many as 60 main board listings in 2023, with average returns of 28.16% on the first day of public trading. In fact, Tata Technologies topped the list of best IPOs in 2023 with first-day returns of 162.6%. Given this backdrop, it is not wrong on the investors’ part to eagerly anticipate these upcoming Tata IPOs.
Initially, tata Motors owned TASL as part of its defance business, but later divested the defance business, and TASL is now directly owned by tata Sons.
