Executive Summary

Chapter I
contributing Rs. 40 billion to the National Exchequer through taxes, duties and
other levies. The Indian Rubber Industry plays a vital role in the Indian
national economy. The rubber plantation sector in India produces over 630
hundred thousand tonnes of natural rubber and there is a projected production
of more than one million tonnes in near future. This has helped in the radical
and rapid growth of the Indian rubber industry. This prospect of growth is
further enhanced by a boom in the vehicle industry, improved living standards
of the people and rapid over-all industrialization. The per capita consumption
of rubber in India is only 800 grams compared to 12 to 14 kilos in Japan, USA
and Europe. So far as consumption of rubber products is concerned, India is
far from attaining any saturation level. This is another factor leading to
tremendous growth prospects of the industry in the years to come.

Michael Porter observed five forces that have significant impact on a firm's
profitability in its industry. These five forces analysis today in business world
is also known as -Porter Five Forces Analysis
Due to the rising competition in the Indian market, the bargaining power of the
buyer is high because the switching costs are very low. Tata Motors has been
facing intense competition from Maruti Suzuki and other new entrants like
Volvo. Due to its differentiation and innovativeness Tata Motors has managed
to compete in the industry and maintain its margins
Buyers are often a demanding lot. They want to buy the best offerings
available by paying the minimum price as possible. This put pressure on Tata
Motors Limited profitability in the long run. The smaller and more powerful
the customer base is of Tata Motors Limited the higher the bargaining power
of the customers and higher their ability to seek increasing discounts and
offers.
All most all the companies in the Auto Manufacturers - Major industry buy
their raw material from numerous suppliers. Suppliers in dominant position
can decrease the margins Tata Motors Limited can earn in the market.
Powerful suppliers in Consumer Goods sector use their negotiating power to
extract higher prices from the firms in Auto Manufacturers - Major field. The
overall impact of higher supplier bargaining power is that it lowers the overall
profitability of Auto Manufacturers
Tata Motors.
There are very few substitutes available for the products that are produced in
the industry in which Tata Motors Limited operates. The very few substitutes
that are available are also produced by low profit earning industries. This
means that there is no ceiling on the maximum profit that firms can earn in the
industry in which Tata Motors Limited operates. All these factors make the
threat of substitute products a weaker force within the industry.
The very few substitutes available are of high quality but are way more
expensive. Comparatively, firms producing within the industry in which Tata
Motors Limited operates sell at a lower price than substitutes, with adequate
quality. This means that buyers are less likely to switch to substitute products.
This means that the threat of substitute products is weak within the industry.
Tata Motors if faced with fierce competition in the domestic market dominated
by Maruti Suzuki and Hyundai Motors. The company is also facing
competition in its commercial vehicle segment from Volvo and Daimler who
have also started manufacturing trucks. This has resulted into a loss of market
shares and a decline in its turnover.
In the automobile industry, barriers to entry are very high because incumbents
like Tata Motors have already reached high scales of production which will be
very expensive for new entrants to match. Barriers to entry into this industry
are high due to the very high investment required for entry. Not forgetting that
incumbents have gained experience with time and know how to operate
efficiently which gives them an added advantage

Chapter IV
SWOT analysis.
Strength:
Reliable suppliers – It has a strong base of reliable supplier of raw material thus
enabling the company to overcome any supply chain bottlenecks.
The company has a strategy in place for the next stage of its expansion. Not
only is it focusing upon new products and acquisitions, but it also has a
programme of intensive management development in place in order to establish
its leaders for tomorrow.
The company has a strong R&D network in all its subsidiaries which has
supported it and kept it on top of the game when it comes to innovativeness.
This has helped it invest in new technologies and in development of new
products that have helped it meet both the challenges and opportunities in the
market.
Weakness:
The company’s passenger car products are based upon 3rd and 4th generation
platforms, which put Tata Motors Limited at a disadvantage with competing car
manufacturers.
Old Technology Use: The passenger car products of the company are based on
old platforms which are the major disadvantage for Tata Motors for competing
with its rivals in the automobile manufacturers.
Indifferent to Changes: Automotive is a highly competitive market. Every
company remains competitive in this industry as most of the automotive
companies are very old and experienced in this business. They sell a modern
model, and cars that are tech-savvy. But in this case, the Tata Motors are
indifferent. Its large base model is old.
Unable to establish Foothold: Tata has no foothold for luxury cars in the Indian
Market. Its brand is recognized for commercial vehicles and low-cost passenger
cars
Tata Motors faces are its inability to meet safety standards. Although they have
made the most inexpensive car out on the market, it has yet to pass all the safety
standards which is a legal requirement.
Tata Motors.
Opportunities:
Tata Motors can grow further in its home market. As the economic
development is spreading across the country, a growing number of potential
buyers is out there in the rural areas. Tata Motors can easily tap into this
potential market segment. Likewise, further growth is also possible in many of
its overseas markets.
Electric cars are the way forward where all the automobile giants are
concentrating on. Tata Motors has already announced its position in this
battle. It unveiled Nexon EV, its first electric car for personal buyers in
December 2019 (James, 2019). It is very optimistic about this nascent electric
car market.
Expanding auto market: The world is becoming modernized. People are being
independent on transportation facilities heavily. It will increase the sales of
motor vehicles. As Tata still has the opportunity to enter a different foreign
market, it has a great expansion opportunity.
Threats:
Rising prices in the global economy could pose a threat to Tata Motors
Limited on a couple of fronts. The price of steel and aluminium is increasing
putting pressure on the costs of production.
Increasing production cost: In this modern era, competition has increased. As a
result, the production cost is more than before as the company has to be more
competitive for offering innovative products.
Tata Motors faces a number of competitors in its domestic and overseas
markets. Its main competitors are Honda, Toyota, Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai,
Volkswagen, Ford, Mahindra, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Ashok Leyland, Volvo,
Skoda Auto, and Chevrolet.

Financial Statement analysis
Financial statement analysis is the process of reviewing and analyzing a company's
financial statements to make better economic decisions. These statements include
the income statement, balance sheet, statement of cash flows, and a statement of
changes in equity. Financial statement analysis is a method or process involving
specific techniques for evaluating risks, performance, financial health, and future
prospects of an organization.
It is used by a variety of stakeholders, such as credit and equity investors, the
government, the public, and decision-makers within the organization. These
stakeholders have different interests and apply a variety of different techniques to
meet their needs. For example, equity investors are interested in the long-term
earnings power of the organization and perhaps the sustainability and growth of
dividend payments. Creditors want to ensure the interest and principal is paid on the
organization’s debt securities (e.g., bonds) when due.
Ratio Analysis
Ratio analysis is used for analysing and interpreting financial statements. It also
helps in decision making process by providing useful inference.
The most popular way to analyse the financial statements is computing ratios. It is
an important and widely used tool of analysis of financial statements. While
developing a meaningful relationship between the individual items or group of items
of balance sheets and income statements, it highlights the key performance
indicators, such as, liquidity, solvency and profitability of a business entity. The tool
of ratio analysis performs in a way that it makes the process of comprehension of
financial statements simpler, at the same time, it reveals a lot about the changes in
the financial condition of a business entity.

Cash Ratio
Tata Motors.
The cash ratio is ratio of a company’s total cash and cash equivalents to its
current liabilities. This information is useful to creditors when deciding how
much debt, if any, they would be willing to extend to the asking party. The
cash ratio is generally a more conservative look at a company’s ability to cover
its liabilities than many other liquidity ratios because other assets, including
accounts receivable, are left out of the equation

Interpretation:
Ideal for cash ratio is above 1 and from the above calculation we can see
that the cash ratio in the year 2020 is 0.24 and in 2019 it was 0.22, which
is less than 1 so if current liabilities are minimized then the cash ratio
would be in good condition.

Learning experience.
An organization study is an opportunity to test drive a career without making
any serious commitments. It's your chance to see what it would really be like
to work in a particular industry, and whether you're a great fit. And, perhaps
most importantly, a good organization study provides you with experiences,
lessons, and tools you'll need to get a full-time gig in the future
The study at Tata Motors Ltd. Has given a complete framework about the
Organization. I have learnt the structure and working of the organization.
I have also gained the knowledge about history of Automobile industry, and
the companies operating in the industry. By analysing company profile and its
different product portfolio, I got know about how Tata Motors managed
themselves to meet the customers’ expectations by offering different products
to each segment at a low cost.
By analysing SWOT of the company, I got to know about the both internal and
external factors which influences the overall functioning of the company.
