TATA MOTORS- AN INTRODUCTION
Established in 1945, Tata Motors is India's largest and only fully integrated automobile
company. Tata Motors began manufacturing commercial vehicles in 1954 with a 15-year
collaboration agreement with Daimler Benz of Germany. Since 1969, the company's products have
come out of its own design and development efforts.
Today, Tata Motors is India's largest commercial vehicle manufacturer with a 59 per cent
market share and ranks among the top six manufacturers of medium and heavy commercial
vehicles in the areas of business Tata Motors' product range covers passenger cars, multi-utility
vehicles as well as light, medium and heavy commercial vehicles for goods and passenger transport.
Seven out of 10 medium and heavy commercial vehicles in India bear the most trusted TATA mark.
CV Unit
Commercial Vehicle Business unit. The company has over 130 models of light, medium
and heavy commercial vehicles ranging from two tones to 40 tones, buses ranging from 12-seaters
to 60-seaters, tippers, special purpose vehicles, off-road vehicles and defense vehicles.
The Company’s passenger car range comprises the hatchback Indica, the Indigo sedan
and the Marina, its station wagon variant, in petrol and diesel versions. The Tata Sumo, its rural
variant, the Spacio and the Tata Safari (the country's first sports utility vehicle) are the company's
multi-utility offerings. The Tata Indica, India's first indigenously designed and manufactured car,
was launched by Tata Motors in 1999 as part of its ongoing effort towards giving India transport
solutions that were designed for Indian conditions. Currently, the company's passenger cars and
multi-utility vehicles have a 16-per cent market share.
In addition to the growth opportunities in the buoyant domestic market, the company is
pursuing growth through acquisitions (it acquired Daewoo Commercial Vehicles, Korea, in 2004)
and alliances (it has entered into a tie-up with MG Rover, UK, to supply 1, 00,000 Indicas to be
budged as City Rover) in other geographies.
Research and Development
Tata Motors invests up to 1.3 per cent of its annual turnover on research and
development, with an emphasis on new product / aggregates development and technology up
gradation. Its Engineering Research Center in Pune employs over 900 scientists and engineers and
has India's only certified crash-test facility and hemi-anechoic chamber for testing of noise and
vibration.
The company also draws on the resources of leading international design and styling
houses like the Institute of Development in Automotive Engineering, SPA, Italy and Stile Bertoni,
Italy. The company has also been implementing several environmentally sensitive technologies in
manufacturing processes and uses some of the world's most advanced equipment for emission
checking control.
Environmental Responsibility
Tata Motors has led the Indian automobile industry's anti-pollution efforts through a
series of initiatives in effluent and emission control. The company introduced emission control
engines in its vehicles in India before the norm was made statutory. All its products meet required
emission standards in the relevant geographies. Modern effluent treatment facilities, soil and water
conservation programs and tree plantation drives on a large scale at its plant locations contribute to
the protection of the environment
Exports
Tata Motors' vehicles are exported to over 70 countries in Europe, Africa, South America,
Middle East, Asia and Australia. The company also has assembly operations in Malaysia,
Bangladesh, Kenya, South Africa and Egypt.
Associates
With an aim to expand its business horizons, Tata Engineering has always sought
opportunities to form alliances with business leaders. In a world driven by specialization, this policy
adopted by Tata Engineering has ensured overall business control and an edge over competition.
The joint ventures that Tata Engineering has formed over the years were guided by the
contemporary technologies of the partners.
Tata Engineering entered into a joint venture with Cummins Engine Company, USA, in 1992
– long before emission control norms were prevalent in India. Cummins was the leading name in
manufacturing engines that used emission control technologies. This alliance was the result of Tata
Engineering’s foresight and concern for the environment.
Tata Engineering invests in opportunities that can enhance and reinforce its presence in
the corporate world. The Company has numerous subsidiary companies, Foreign Collaborations,
Technical Collaborations and Financial Collaboration.
Tata Motors has made substantial investments in building associate and subsidiary
companies that complement and support its business activities. These include:
Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicle Company manufactures heavy trucks ranging from 15T
GVW to 45T GVW. Tata Motors acquired this company in March, 2004HV Transmissions, supplies
gearboxes for the company's medium and heavy commercial vehicles.
Nita Company, Bangladesh, is engaged in the assembly of Tata vehicles for Bangladesh
market.

JOINT VENTURES
During the year TCL supplied 6,207 engines to the Company. Turnover for the 18-
month period ended March 31,1999 was Rs.288.47 crores. (Previous year ended September
30,1997 Rs.233.57 crores). The Company proposes to eventually switch over from its existing range
of engines for H/MCV s to those manufactured by TCL in collaboration with Cummins Engine Co.
Inc. USA.
Mercedes-Benz India Limited (MBIL) with a further increase in the capital of MBIL from
Rs.450 crores to Rs.600 crores, the Company's holding in MBIL has been diluted to 14%. This is in
keeping with its decision not to invest any amounts over its initial investment of Rs.84 crores in
MBIL. MBIL's sales during 1998-99 were 1,006 "E" class cars, which included exports of 502 units.
Turnover during the year was Rs.212.6 crores (Previous year Rs.332.7 crores).
Tata Holset Limited (THL)
In the year 1998-99, THL produced 6,525 turbochargers and sold 6,888 turbochargers.
Net sales turnover for the year was Rs.8.17 crores. (Previous year Rs.4.13 crores). THL, which
supplies the turbochargers to TCL for fitment on its engines, would also see a marked improvement
in performance once the volumes for TCL build up.
Concorde Motors Limited (CML) CML was appointed as the Company's dealers for
passenger vehicles in Delhi, Mumbai, Ban galore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Lucknow and Ludhiana. It
has also acquired the dealership of Mercedes-Benz India Ltd. in Mumbai. During the year, CML sold
1,934 cars and achieved an overall turnover of Rs.126.82 crores for the year 1998-99. With sales of
the Tata Indica expected to be much higher in the current year, CML should be able to consolidate
its position in the car retailing market.
For the year ended December 31, 1998, Tata Precision Industries (TPI), Singapore,
achieved a turnover of Singapore $2.4 million (1997- Singapore $5.0 million). This was mainly due to
the fact that business in general was influenced by the economic
crisis that befell almost all countries in the ASEAN region. TPl's business was particularly affected
due to the drop in consumer demand for electronic items. Due to
the loss of Singapore $2.20 million (1997-loss of Singapore $0.35 million), no dividend was paid for
the year. With present indications of improved business, including substantial orders from a new:
customer, TPI expects to wipe out its losses over the next two years.

In the Commercial Vehicle Business Unit, the models are classified on the basis of GVW as under:
HCV: Heavy Commercial Vehicles
MCV: Medium Commercial Vehicles.
LCV: Light Commercial Vehicles.
The HCV segment can be further classified into three segments based on gross vehicle weight as
follows:
ICV:
MCV: Medium Commercial Vehicle with GVW of 10 to 15 ton.
HCV: Heavy Commercial Vehicle with GVW of 16 ton and above.
MCV & HCVs can also be classified into two categories depending on their usage as Trucks and
Buses. Buses are passenger carriers. Trucks include goods carriers along with specialized vehicles
like dumpers, tractor-trailers etc. the ICVs fall in the load category of 8 to 10 ton GVW and are often
substituted for medium or heavy commercial vehicles in trunk routes or cities. EICHER Motors and
SWARAJ MAZDA are two manufacturers operating in this segment.
Gross Combined Weight (GCW): The total weight of a vehicle, including all its cargo, plus the
weight of a trailer and its entire contents.
Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR): The maximum allowable weight of the GCW as
specified by the manufacturer. Exceeding this limit compromises safety. What you need to
know: Vehicles that operate above the GCWR are a potential safety hazard because the engine,
frame, suspension,
Brakes and tires are not designed for weight above the rating the manufacturer has set.
Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW): Maximum legal weight at which a vehicle can be operated. The
total weight of a vehicle with driver and passengers, cargo, fuel, coolant, any dealer or after-
market installed accessories, and tongue weight if towing.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR): It is the maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle
that may not be exceeded, as designated by the manufacturer. GVWR is identified on the
manufacturer's label, which is usually located on the driver's door or door jam. What you
need to know: Vehicles that operate above the GVWR are a potential safety hazard because the
engine, frame, suspension, brakes and tires are not designed for weight above the rating the
manufacturer has set.
Curb Weight: The weight of an empty vehicle, without cargo and driver and passengers, but
including maximum amounts of fuel, oil, coolant and standard equipment, including the spare
tire and tools.
Payload: The maximum amount of weight, including driver and passengers that can be carried
in the truck's bed and cabin. Basically, the payload is the GVWR minus the Curb Weight.
Naming conventions:
Any Bus/Truck will always be named by its classification. The last two digits multiplied by 10
indicate the Brake Horse Power (BHP) rating of the engine.
The digits prior to last two digits indicate the Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) GVW = payload +
vehicle weight
That is:
EASTERN COMPLEX:
TATA Motors Ltd. Lko, has total plant area of 600 acres of which 280 acres are covered in the
Western Part called the Western Block which has a present production capacity of 120 vehicles per
day and now they have planned to increase its daily production capacity to 520 vehicles by
extension which is already going in the form of eastern complex on the other side of ‘Dewa’ road
covering the remaining 320 acres. The production capacity of this new assembly plant will expected
to be 320 vehicles per day. The eastern complex would have longest conveyor line of India i.e. 375
meters.
This eastern complex will have two conveyers formed by the combination of single chain conveyor
and double chain slat conveyor. These conveyors are named as ‘Line-2’ and ‘Line-3’ (Line-1 is the
name given to the conveyor at western complex). There is also a provision of a future expansion in
form of ‘Line-4’ and ‘Line-5’ and two more trim lines to cater their cowl/cab needs.Line-2’ and ‘Line-
3’ will be composed of 30 stations of 12.5 meters each in comparison to the 19 stations in the
existing line.
The complete assembling activity for the vehicle chassis will be done in these 30 stations. The
assembly of cowl/cab will be catered by the two trim lines, which will be composed of 34 and 40
stations respectively.
Apart from this, it would also have the biggest paint shop, which will be dedicated for the painting
of cowls and cabs along with the BIW (Body in White) shop. Presently the cowls are being received
from the Jamshedpur which carries a lot of extra transportation charges will now be seized with the
start of Eastern Complex.
Moreover in the Eastern Complex there are many other changes made for the efficient working on
the line. Firstly the line will accommodate the assembling of chassis of various types of MCV`s and
HCV`s up to the upcoming model WORLD TRUCK of TATA. All the equipments and tools etc. will
operate over-head so as to make the more floor surface available and reducing hindrance on the
shop floor. Platforms for accommodating different types of over-head equipments and machines
are hanged to the top with various beams and hangers. Also the aggregates which are the heavy
parts required during the chassis assembly (Engine, Axles, and Cab etc.) will now be moved from
storage to the fitment station through EMS (Electric Monorail System) which will freeze the
movement of fork-lifters on the shop floor. Moreover the docking stations are built aside the wall
to dock the material from outside in front of the station in which that part will go to the assembly
line directly. Above all the main thing is that the flow of work is made in efficient & systematic way
to enhance the productivity with the increased safety.
CAB AND COWL AT TRIM LINE:
