Consolidated Financial Results for the Quarter and Year ended March 31, 2016

For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, Tata Motors reported consolidated revenues (net of excise) of Rs. 80,684 crores as against Rs. 67,778 crores for the corresponding quarter last year. This broadly reflects: -

Consolidated Profit before tax (before exceptional item) for the quarter was Rs. 5,957 crores, against Rs. 2,932 crores for the corresponding quarter last year broadly due to -

Stronger operating performance in both standalone as well as Jaguar Land Rover business and lower net finance expenses partly offset by higher depreciation and amortization expenses, adverse revaluation of EUR payables and one time reserves and charges of Rs. 1,580 crores (£166 million) for the industry-wide recall in the United States of potentially faulty airbags supplied by Takata, doubtful debts and previously capitalized investment in the Jaguar Land Rover business.

Further, exceptional items for the quarter includes further insurance and other recoveries of Rs. 555 crores on account of the vehicles damaged at Tianjin Port explosion in Jaguar Land Rover business.

Post the exceptional items, the Consolidated Profit before tax for the quarter was Rs. 6,561 crores, against Rs. 2,771 crores for the corresponding quarter last year.

Tata Motors Standalone Financial Results for the Quarter and Year ended March 31, 2016

During the quarter, M&HCV continued its growth trajectory with volume growth of 26.6% Y-o-Y during the quarter on the back of the continued replacement demand, initial fleet expansion demand, infrastructure spending and better profitability of the freight operators. LCV segment of the Company also started showing growth trend with a growth of 11.8% Y-o-Y during the quarter. Exports of the Commercial vehicles also grew 26.6% Y-o-Y during the quarter. The strong growth in the overall CV sales (including exports) of 19.5 % Y-o-Y during the quarter, along with ongoing cost reduction and other margin improvement initiatives, led to the improvement of 530 bps Y-o-Y in the EBITDA margin of the Company.

The sales (including exports) of commercial and passenger vehicles for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, stood at 144,507 units, representing a growth of 3.9%, as compared to the corresponding quarter last year. The revenues (net of excise) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 stood at Rs. 12,570 crores, as compared to Rs. 10,786 crores for the corresponding quarter last year. Operating profit (EBITDA) for the quarter stood at Rs. 1,022 crores with operating margin at 8.1 %. Other Income for the quarter included profit on sale of investment in subsidiary companies of Rs. 330 crores and dividend from subsidiaries of Rs. 34 crores (no profit on sale of investments in subsidiary companies and dividend from subsidiaries of Rs. 15 crores in the corresponding quarter last year).

Jaguar Land Rover Automotive PLC – (figures as per IFRS)

Jaguar Land Rover wholesales and retails (both excluding China JV) for the quarter were 149,895 units and 146,446 units up 19.8% and 18.9% Y-o-Y, respectively. China JV wholesales and retails for the quarter were 12,532 units and 12,367 units.

Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 were £6,594 million, compared to £5,826 million for the corresponding quarter last year. Operating performance during the quarter was very strong with Operating profit i.e EBITDA (before one-time reserve and charges) of £1,069 million (margin at 16.2%) for the quarter, compared to £1,016 million for the corresponding quarter last year. Reported Operating profit for the quarter was £903 million after one-time reserve and charges of £166 million for the industry-wide recall in the U.S. of potentially faulty airbags supplied by Takata, doubtful debts and previously capitalized investment. Operating profit (before one- time reserve and charges) in the quarter reflects the overall higher wholesales, offset by less favourable market and model mix and unfavourable FX revaluation of mainly EUR payables. Profit before tax was £577 million (after an exceptional item of £58 million of further insurance recoveries in the quarter related to Tianjin) for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 compared to £396 million in the corresponding quarter last year driven by favourable overall revaluation of unrealised FX and commodity hedges and USD debt, lower net finance expenses as well as higher China JV profitability.

2) The above results have been reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board and were approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting held on May 30, 2016.

 

3) Figures for the previous periods / year have been regrouped / reclassified, wherever necessary.

 

4) The tax expense is not comparable with the profit before tax, since it is consolidated on a line-by-line addition for each subsidiary company and proportionately for each jointly controlled company and no tax effect is recorded in respect of consolidation adjustments. This accounting treatment is as per Accounting Standard (AS)-21.

 

5) During the quarter and year ended March 31, 2016, an amount of Rs. 1,117.55 crores (net of tax) and Rs. 3,702.60 crores (net of tax), respectively, have been credited [Rs. 2,819.99 crores (net of tax) and Rs. 2,793.47 crores (net of tax) have been debited for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2015, respectively], to “Reserves and Surplus”, representing changes in actuarial valuation of pension plans of Jaguar Land Rover group in the UK, in accordance with IFRS principles and as permitted by AS 21 in the consolidated financial statements.

 

6) A provision against the carrying value of inventory of Rs. 2,493.18 crores (GBP 245 million) was recognised in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, following the assessment of the physical condition of the vehicles involved in the explosion at the port of Tianjin in China in August 2015. During quarter ended March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, insurance proceeds and other recoveries of Rs. 555.49 crores (GBP 58 million) and Rs. 299.30 crores (GBP 30 million), respectively have been recognised as exceptional income, partially reversing the exceptional charge recognised during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The process for finalising ongoing insurance claims may take some months to conclude, so further insurance and other potential recoveries will only be recognised in future periods when paid or confirmed and have not been recognised in this period.

 

7) In May 2016, an industry-wide passenger airbag safety recall was announced in the United States by National Highway Traffic System Administration (NHTSA) in respect of airbags from a supplier (Takata). Certain front-passenger airbags from Takata are installed in vehicles sold by Jaguar Land Rover Group. The Company has considered this to be an adjusting Post Balance Sheet event and has recognised an additional provision of Rs. 641.50 crores (GBP 67.4 million) for the estimated cost of repairs in the Statement of Profit and Loss for the year ended March 31, 2016. The provision is expected to be utilised over 1-4 years.


8) During the year ended March 31, 2016, TML Holdings Pte Ltd., Singapore, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company has refinanced existing:

 

  (i) Unsecured Multi currency loan of USD 600 million (USD 250 million and SGD 62.8 million maturing in November 2017 and USD 210 million and SGD 114 million maturing in November 2019) by a new syndicated loan of USD 600 million (USD 300 million maturing in October 2020 and USD 300 million maturing in October 2022). The unamortised exchange loss of Rs. 75.88 crores and borrowing cost of Rs. 47.75 crores of the Multi currency loan, has been debited to Statement of Profit and Loss during the quarter ended December 31, 2015.

 

  (ii) SGD 350 million 4.25% Senior notes due in May 2018 by a new syndicated loan of USD 250 million maturing in March 2020. The unamortised exchange loss of Rs. 52.15 crores and borrowing cost Rs. 15.21 crores of Senior notes has been debited to Statement of Profit and Loss during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

 

9)

   a)      During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company allotted 15,04,90,480 Ordinary shares (including 3,20,49,820 shares underlying the ADRs) of Rs. 2 each at a premium of Rs. 448 per share, aggregating Rs. 6,772.07 crores and 2,65,09,759 ‘A’ Ordinary shares of Rs. 2 each at a premium of Rs. 269 per share, aggregating Rs. 718.42 crores pursuant to the Rights issue. 1,54,279 Ordinary shares and 20,531 ‘A’ Ordinary shares have been kept in abeyance.

1. We have audited the accompanying Statement of Standalone Financial Results of TATA MOTORS LIMITED (“the Company”) for the year ended March 31, 2016 (“the Statement”), being submitted by the Company pursuant to the requirement of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. This Statement, which is the responsibility of the Company’s Management and approved by the Board of Directors, has been prepared on the basis of the related financial statements which are in accordance with the Accounting Standards prescribed under Section 133 of the Companies Act, 2013, as applicable and other accounting principles generally accepted in India. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Statement.

 

2. We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. Those Standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and the disclosures in the Statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Statement, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the Statement in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of the accounting policies used and the reasonableness of the accounting estimates made by the Management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Statement.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.


3. In our opinion and to the best of our information and according to the explanations given to us, the Statement:

 

  (i) is presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation 33 of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015; and

 

  (ii) gives a true and fair view in conformity with the aforesaid Accounting Standards and other accounting principles generally accepted in India of the net profit and other financial information of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2016.

 

4. The Statement includes the results for the Quarters ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 being the balancing figures between the audited figures in respect of the full financial year and the audited year to date figures up to the third quarter of the relevant financial year.
