Tata group is preparing the blueprint to launch a ''battery company'' both in India and abroad as part of its transition to being future-ready, Tata Sons Chairman N Chandrasekaran said on Wednesday.
Speaking at the CII Business Summit 2022, Chandrasekaran also said the group is ''in a massive transformation'' to become future ready and will shortly announce a group level goal towards becoming carbon neutral.
''We are transforming our core businesses to be future-ready, a transition where we are tightly integrating or embedding digital, data, AI and sustainability at the core of the business…,'' he said.
While the existing business is undergoing transformation, the group has also entered into new areas, Chandrasekaran said citing the example of the group's Tata Neu super app to prepare itself for an omni-channel consumer-facing ecosystem and the launch of a ''very large scale precision manufacturing electronics company which has global aspirations''.
He further said, ''We have launched a company for creating a 5G and beyond telecom gear for the global markets. We are preparing the blueprint to launch our battery company both in India and abroad.'' Chandrasekaran, however, did not elaborate on the details of the battery company.
Underlining the importance of sustainability, he said, ''We have a group level agenda on sustainability, which we will be announcing shortly where we have a group-level goal towards becoming carbon neutral. At the same time, we will address the huge impact that we can create on the communities.'' Stressing that the group is into carbon capture, he said, ''Water is a big theme across the group. Everyone, every company will not only become water neutral but we will go beyond that.''
Elaborating on the transition undertaken by the group's existing companies, Chandrasekaran said, ''Our auto company has made a significant transition in passenger cars. In fact, our market shares have gone up because we made this transition. In commercial vehicles, we are looking at alternative energy, we are looking at hydrogen fuel cells. We are doing the same thing in Jaguar Land Rover.''
The over USD 100 billion conglomerate's automotive arm Tata Motors is leading the electric passenger vehicles market in India in terms of sales through its models such as Nexon EV and Tigor EV. It has recently unveiled an electric concept AVINYA, based on which new electric models will come with an enhanced range of over 500 km. The commercial vehicles division of Tata Motors has also recently launched the all-electric version of its popular mini truck, Ace.
Chandrasekaran also said the group's power company, Tata Power, is shifting heavily towards not only utility-scale renewables but consumer renewables.
''We are doing the same thing in steel, not only in terms of recycling, but also in terms of preparing a blueprint towards hydrogen,'' he added.
When asked what could be added to the Tata brand, which is trusted widely with the group companies performing well, going forward, he said, it has to be the driving performance and become an aspirational one.

Closed the tab feeling I had spent the time well, and a stop at createimpactquickly extended that feeling across more pages, the test of whether time on a site was well spent is one I apply silently after closing tabs and very few sites pass it but this one passed it cleanly today afternoon clearly.

Found the section structure particularly thoughtful, and a stop at scrolltower suggested the same care across the broader site, structural choices guide the reader through the material in ways most people do not consciously notice but feel the absence of when those choices are made carelessly or not at all.
Alectep
Took a screenshot of one section to come back to later, and a stop at buildsmartprogress prompted another saved tab, the urge to capture and revisit specific pieces of content is something I rarely feel but when I do it tells me the work is worth more than the average passing read for sure.
JimmyToise
Started a draft response in my head and ended without publishing it because the post said it well enough, and a look at oliveorchard produced the same effect, content that satisfies my urge to add to it by being complete enough on its own is rare and represents a particular kind of editorial completeness here.
EmilianoNex
A piece that left me thinking I had been undercaring about the topic, and a look at createimpacttogether reinforced that mild concern, content that raises the appropriate weight of a subject without being preachy about it is doing important work and this site is providing that gentle elevation of attention for me consistently.
Terrancerig
A genuine pleasure to find a site that publishes at a sustainable cadence rather than chasing the daily content treadmill, and a look at startwithclearvision confirmed the careful publication rhythm, sites that prioritise quality over frequency are rare and this one has clearly chosen the slower pace which I appreciate as a reader.
KevinTAH
Nice and clean, that is the best way to describe the writing here, no clutter and no wasted words, and a quick visit to learnandexpandfast kept that going, I appreciate when a site treats its readers like people who can think for themselves without needing constant hand holding through every paragraph.
KyleAgott
Now appreciating the small but real way this post improved my afternoon, and a stop at createfocusedaction extended that small improvement effect, content that produces measurable positive impact on the texture of a reading day is content with real value and this site is producing those small positive impacts at a sustainable rate apparently.
Lewisrab
Now noticing how rare it is to find a site that does not feel rushed, and a look at learnandoptimizefast extended that calm pace, content produced without time pressure has a different quality than content shipped to meet a deadline and this site reads as written without urgency which produces a different and better experience for readers.
Dylanunfit
Adding this to my list of go to references for the topic, and a stop at buildsmartfoundations confirmed the rest of the site deserves the same, definitely the kind of resource that earns its place rather than getting forgotten the moment the next interesting article shows up in my feed somewhere else on the web.
CaseyRique
Reading this in a quiet hour and finding it suited the quiet, and a stop at inaarch extended the quiet reading mood, content that matches its own optimal reading conditions rather than fighting them is content that has been thoughtfully calibrated and this site reads as having a particular reading mood in mind throughout.
JayThave
Clean writing, easy to read, and never tries too hard to impress, that combination is harder to find than people think, and after my time on discovermeaningfulgrowth I am sure this site treats its readers well, no flashy tricks just useful content done right which is honestly all I want online.
BorisMuh
A clear cut above the usual noise on the subject, and a look at explorefreshgrowth only made that gap wider in my view, the kind of place that earns its visitors through quality rather than through aggressive marketing or sponsored placements which is increasingly the only way most sites stay afloat across the modern web.
DiegoVon
Top quality material, deserves more attention than it probably gets, and a look at growwithconfidencenow reflected the same effort across the site, a hidden gem in the modern web where most attention goes to whoever shouts loudest rather than whoever actually delivers the best content for their readers without much marketing fanfare.
LayneNig
Liked how the writer used real examples instead of theoretical ones to make the points stick, and a stop at buildyournextmove added even more concrete examples, this is the kind of practical approach that respects readers who actually want to apply what they learn rather than just nodding along passively without doing anything useful.
DorianNus
Reading this confirmed something I had been suspecting about the topic, and a look at buildactionableprogress pushed that confirmation toward greater confidence, content that lines up with independently held intuitions earns a special kind of trust and I will return to writers who consistently land that way for me without overselling positions.
LeeSes
Speaking as someone who reads a lot on this topic this site has earned a high position in my source rankings, and a stop at jebbeo reinforced that ranking, the informal ranking of sources for a topic is something I maintain mentally and this site has moved into the upper portion of those rankings clearly.
Enriquezewly
A piece that reads like it was written for me without claiming to be written for me, and a look at holcap produced the same fit, when the writer audience match clicks naturally without being engineered through demographic targeting you know the writing is solid and this site has that natural fit consistently for me.
DaquanTix
Looking back on this reading session it stands as one of the better ones recently, and a look at createprogressmapping extended that ranking, the informal ranking of reading sessions against each other is something I do mentally and this session ranks high largely because of this site and a couple of related pages here.
Samacita
Honestly enjoyed not being sold anything for the entire duration of the post, and a look at buildstrategicdirection kept that pleasant absence going across more pages, content that exists for its own sake rather than as a funnel to a paid product is increasingly rare and worth supporting where I can find it.
Geneliste
If you asked me to point to a recent positive sign for the open web this site would be near the top, and a stop at seosprout reinforced that designation, the few sites that serve as evidence the web can still produce quality independent content are precious and this one has clearly become one for me.
Alonzofasse
Now appreciating that the post did not try to imitate any other style I might recognise, and a stop at findyourgrowthlane continued that distinct voice, content with its own register rather than borrowed from elsewhere is content with real authorial presence and this site has clearly developed that presence through what feels like patient editorial work.
Chadtrume
Really clear writing, the kind that makes you want to share the link with someone who has been asking about the topic, and a quick browse through createprogressframework only made me more sure of that, the information here stays useful long after the first read is done which says a lot.
MiguelNok
Thanks for sharing this with the open internet rather than locking it behind a paywall like so many sites do now, and a stop at hupido kept the same vibe going, generous helpful and clearly written by someone who actually wants people to learn from it rather than just charge them.
TomFloal
A piece that read smoothly because the writer understood how readers actually move through prose, and a look at buildactionableprogress maintained the same reader awareness, writers who think about the reading experience as much as the writing experience produce better work and this site has clearly made that shift in editorial approach.
ColeHoafe
Strong recommendation from me, anyone curious about the topic should make time for this, and a look at startwithpurpose only sharpens that recommendation further, the kind of resource that holds up against careful scrutiny rather than crumbling at the first critical question is rare and worth pointing other people toward when the topic comes up.
Keenanpaxia
A piece that did not lean on the writer credentials or institutional backing, and a look at startmovingforward maintained the same focus on substance, content that earns trust through quality rather than through name dropping is the kind I find most persuasive and this site is clearly playing on the substance side of that distinction.
DominicFem
Top quality material, deserves more attention than it probably gets, and a look at bakeboxshop reflected the same effort across the site, a hidden gem in the modern web where most attention goes to whoever shouts loudest rather than whoever actually delivers the best content for their readers without much marketing fanfare.
Stuartfaw
Genuinely changed how I think about a small piece of the topic, which does not happen often online, and a look at discoveropportunityzones added another nudge in the same direction, the kind of writing that earns a small mental shift rather than just confirming what you already thought before reading is a sign of careful thought.
Hugoengar
Solid endorsement from me, the writing earns it, and a look at findbetterapproaches continues to earn it across the broader site too, the kind of operation that maintains quality across many pages rather than just one viral post is a sign of serious commitment and that is what I see here clearly across what I read.
Dannyweevy
Looking back on this reading session it stands as one of the better ones recently, and a look at findgrowthopportunitiesnow extended that ranking, the informal ranking of reading sessions against each other is something I do mentally and this session ranks high largely because of this site and a couple of related pages here.
JayOrder
Now appreciating the small but real way this post improved my afternoon, and a stop at startnextphase extended that small improvement effect, content that produces measurable positive impact on the texture of a reading day is content with real value and this site is producing those small positive impacts at a sustainable rate apparently.
MilesLow
Took the time to read every paragraph rather than skimming for the punchline, and a quick visit to startwithpurposefulsteps earned the same careful attention from me, that is the highest signal I can give about content quality because my default mode is rapid scanning rather than deliberate reading on most pages.
RonHirty
Closed it feeling I had taken something away rather than just consumed something, and a stop at learnandrefine extended that taking away feeling, the difference between content I extract value from and content I just pass through is something I track informally and this site is consistently in the value extraction column for me.
Reedpen
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible take on this topic without the usual marketing nonsense, and a look at learnandadvancefaster kept that grounded approach going, sites that stay focused on serving readers rather than monetising every click are rare and this is clearly one of those rare ones I really appreciate finding.
Adamdrape
Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at createvisionforward confirmed that time will be well spent, the rare site whose archive deserves a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the kind of resource worth scheduling around and this one qualifies clearly.
DorianNus
Now planning a longer reading session for the archives, and a stop at buildactionableprogress confirmed the archives are worth that longer commitment, sites with archives I want to read deliberately rather than just sample are rare and this one has clearly earned that level of interest based on the consistency of what I have already read.
Franciscomoumn
Glad the writer kept this short rather than padding it out, the points stand on their own without needing extra context, and a look at inobrat kept the same approach going, brevity is a sign of confidence in the substance and the team here clearly trusts their content to land without filler.
DaquanTix
The overall feel of the post was professional without being stuffy, and a look at createprogressmapping kept that approachable expertise going, finding the right register for technical content is hard but this site has clearly figured out how to sound knowledgeable without slipping into that distant lecturing tone that loses readers in droves every time.
BoydAdern
Will recommend this to a couple of friends who have been asking about this exact topic, and after siloteapot I have even more reason to do so, the kind of site that earns word of mouth rather than chasing it through aggressive marketing or paid placements is always a treat to find online.

Came in expecting another generic take and got something with actual character instead, and a look at discovercreativegrowth carried that personality forward, finding a distinct voice on a saturated topic is impressive and worth pointing out when it happens because most sites end up sounding identical to their nearest competitors quickly.
Daquanjuirl
Recommended without hesitation if you care about careful coverage of this topic, and a stop at buildyournextmove reinforced the recommendation, the bar I set for unhesitating recommendations is fairly high and this site has cleared it through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good pieces rather than through any single standout post which is meaningful.
RyanSox
Reading this confirmed a small detail I had been uncertain about, and a stop at discoverpowerfulpaths provided the source for further checking, content that supports verification through citations or links rather than just asserting facts is more trustworthy and this site has clearly built its credibility through that kind of verifiable approach consistently.
FinnShith
Took a quick scan first and then went back to read properly because the post deserved it, and a stop at surgesorrel kept me reading carefully too, the kind of writing that earns a slower second pass rather than getting skimmed and forgotten is something I value highly when I happen to find it.
YusufUnoxy
Worth saying this site reads better than most paid newsletters I have tried, and a stop at createimpactsteps confirmed that comparison, the bar for free content is often lower than for paid but this site clears the paid bar consistently and that says something about the editorial approach behind the work being published here regularly.
KaleFaT
Closed several other tabs to focus on this one as I read, and a stop at buildsustainableprogress held my undivided attention the same way, content that earns full focus in an attention environment full of competing pulls is content doing something genuinely well and the team behind it deserves recognition for that achievement consistently.
Jimmydooro
Looking forward to seeing what gets published next month, and a look at bulkingbayou extended that anticipation across the broader site, finding myself looking forward to a sites future content rather than just consuming its existing content is a stronger commitment level than I usually reach with new finds and this site triggered that.
MikeJen
Quietly enjoying that I have found a new site to follow for the topic, and a look at learnandscale reinforced the small pleasure of the find, the discovery of new high quality sources is one of the more durable pleasures of careful internet reading and this site has been generating that discovery pleasure at multiple points already today.
BasilUnuth
A clean piece that knew exactly what it wanted to say and said it, and a look at seolift maintained the same clarity of intention, knowing the goal of a piece before writing is something most blog content lacks and the clarity of purpose here shows up in every paragraph for any careful reader to notice.
