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.

A piece that read as if the writer was thinking carefully rather than just typing fluently, and a look at holdax continued that considered quality, the difference between fluent typing and careful thinking shows up in writing and this site reads as the product of thought rather than just the product of language fluency apparently.
EnriqueErems
Useful enough to recommend to several people I know who would appreciate it, and a stop at buildsustainablemomentum added more material I will pass along too, the kind of writing that earns word of mouth is the kind that actually delivers on its promises which is what this site does without any drama or fanfare attached.
Willismub
Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through buildforwardthinking I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.
Kirktwigh
Bookmark added with a small note about why, and a look at buildsmartdirection prompted another bookmark with another note, the bookmarks I annotate are the ones I expect to return to deliberately rather than stumble into and this site is generating annotated bookmarks at a higher rate than my usual content sources by some margin.
MarshallPubre
Strong recommendation from me, anyone curious about the topic should make time for this, and a look at exploreideaswithpurpose 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.
TerrellWhedo
Worth marking the moment when reading this clicked into something useful for my own work, and a look at explorefreshgrowthideas extended that practical click, content that connects to my actual life rather than just being interesting is content with the highest kind of value and this site is generating that connection at a high rate.
TylerObjed
Reading this gave me a small jolt of recognition for an experience I thought was just mine, and a stop at startthinkingclearly produced more such jolts, content that universalises private experiences without flattening them is doing genuinely useful work and this site is providing that recognition function for me reliably across topics I read.
Leonardgak
Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at jebbird added even more depth, you can feel the experience behind every line which is something only writers who have been at this for a while can pull off with this level of grace.
Claytonjub
Worth recommending broadly to anyone who reads on the topic, and a look at explorefreshthinkingnow only confirms that, the rare combination of accessibility and depth in this site makes it suitable for both newcomers and people who already know the area which is hard to pull off in any blog format today and rarely managed.
JabariPilla
Now setting up a small reminder to revisit the site on a slow day, and a stop at startnextlevelgrowth confirmed the reminder was a good idea, planning return visits is a small organisational act that signals trust in ongoing quality and this site has earned that planned return through consistent performance across the pieces I have read so far.
Lutherdig
Now appreciating the small but real way this post improved my afternoon, and a stop at learnandoptimizepath 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.
LaineAstep
Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at exploreideaswithpurpose 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.
VanceTam
Bookmark earned, calendar reminder set, share queued, all from one good post, and a look at findgrowthopportunitiespath did the same, when a single reading session triggers multiple downstream actions you know the content has actually moved me beyond the page and this site is moving me at that higher level reliably.
Barneyknike
Started a draft response in my head and ended without publishing it because the post said it well enough, and a look at hurbug 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.
DwayneKeM
Good quality through and through, no rough edges and no signs of being rushed, and a quick look at inobrisk kept the same polish going, the kind of site that respects its own brand by maintaining consistency across pages which is something I always appreciate as a reader looking for trustworthy information online today.
Cecilelesy
The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at createimpactjourney kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.
Harlanbam
Now noticing the careful balance the post struck between confidence and humility, and a stop at startwithpurposefulsteps maintained the same balance, finding the line between asserting and admitting is hard and this site has clearly developed the calibration to walk that line consistently which produces a more persuasive reading experience for me.
KurtBroam
Bookmark earned and the bookmark feels like a permanent addition rather than a maybe, and a look at growyourcapabilities confirmed that permanent status, the difference between durable bookmarks and ephemeral ones is something I have learned to feel quickly and this site triggered the durable feeling almost immediately during my first read here.
LelandWrist
High quality writing, no marketing speak and no buzzwords that mean nothing, and a stop at parcelparadise kept that going, simple direct content that actually communicates something is harder to find than it should be and this is one of the rare places that gets it right consistently across many different posts.
Terrellsuimi
Now feeling mildly impressed in a way I do not quite remember feeling about a blog in a while, and a stop at startnextchapter extended that mild impression, content that produces specific positive emotional responses rather than just neutral information transfer is content with extra dimensions and this site has those extra dimensions clearly.
Carternax
Now organising my browser bookmarks to give this site easier access, and a look at growfocusedexecution earned the same organisational priority, the small acts of digital housekeeping I do for sites I expect to use often are themselves a measure of trust and this site has triggered the trust based housekeeping behaviour from me clearly.
GarrettRogue
If I had to defend the time I spend reading independent blogs this site would feature in the defence, and a look at startyournextphase reinforced that defensive utility, the ongoing case for non algorithmic reading is one I make to myself periodically and sites like this one provide the actual evidence that supports the case clearly.
Juliodiz
Grateful for posts like this one, they remind me there are still places online run by people who care about quality, and a look at learnandprogresssteadily reflected the same standards, you can tell the difference between content made for readers and content made just for search engines today and this is the former.

ErickEvono
Reading this prompted me to subscribe to my first newsletter in months, and a stop at buildlongtermstrength confirmed the subscribe was the right call, content that earns a newsletter signup is content that has cleared a higher trust bar than a casual visit and this site has clearly earned that level of commitment from me.
FletcherQuosy
Skimmed first and then went back to read carefully, and the careful read paid off in places I had missed, and a stop at syrupserif got the same treatment, the rare site whose content rewards a second pass is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable single read articles.
EmilioEStaf
Liked the careful word choice throughout, every term seemed picked for a reason rather than thrown in casually, and a stop at seomagnet continued that precise style, this kind of attention to small details is what separates careful writing from the usual rushed content that dominates blog spaces today across pretty much every topic I follow.
BoydJap
A clean read with no irritations, and a look at startwithclearfocus continued that frictionless quality, the absence of small irritations is something I notice only when present elsewhere and this site is one of the rare places where everything just works and lets me focus on the substance rather than fighting the format.
Barttic
Glad the writer did not feel the need to argue with imaginary critics in the post itself, and a stop at buildclarityforward kept the same focused approach going, defensive writing wastes the reader time and confidence on positions that did not need defending and this post has clearly avoided that common failure.
Liamvex
Took longer than expected to finish because I kept stopping to think, and a stop at holpod did the same to me, content that provokes thought rather than just delivering information is in a different category and the team here is clearly working at that higher level rather than just cranking out posts.
Kelvingidge
Solid little post, the kind that does not need to be flashy because the substance is doing the work, and a look at startpurposefuljourney kept that quiet confidence going across the site, this is what writing looks like when the writer trusts the content to land on its own without theatrics or unnecessary attention seeking behaviour.
Rolandopag
Bookmark earned and folder updated to track this site separately, and a look at explorefreshthinkingpaths confirmed the folder upgrade was the right call, organising my reading list so that good sites do not get lost in a sea of casual bookmarks is something I do more carefully now and this site warranted its own spot.
GriffinLic
Solid recommendation from me to anyone working in the area, the perspective here is grounded, and a look at buildgrowthmomentum adds even more useful angles, the kind of site that becomes a reference rather than just a one time read which is a higher bar than most blogs ever reach today on the modern web.
Ramonneism
Reading this confirmed that the topic deserves more careful attention than it usually gets, and a stop at findyournextstage extended that elevated framing, content that raises the appropriate weight of a subject without being preachy about it is serving a quiet but important editorial function for the broader cultural conversation about it.
RafaelPhica
Really appreciate the absence of stock photos that have nothing to do with the content, and a quick visit to startpurposefuljourney maintained the same restraint, visual filler is a tell that the writing cannot stand on its own and the lack of it here suggests the team has confidence in their content quality alone.
GusSef
A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at startsmartprogress suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.
JamieVOT
The lack of unnecessary jargon made the post accessible without sacrificing accuracy, and a look at nutmegnetwork continued in the same accessible style, technical topics often hide behind specialised vocabulary but here the writer trusts the reader to keep up with plain language and that trust pays off nicely throughout the entire post.
HankTal
Came across this and immediately thought of a friend who would enjoy it, and a stop at exploreideasdeeply also reminded me of someone, content that triggers the urge to share is content that has earned my recommendation and this site has earned multiple from me already across different conversations during the week.
FidelGooge
Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at irotix kept the same flow going, you can tell when a writer has thought about how their content reads rather than just what it contains and this is one of those examples.
GavinCorie
Felt no urge to argue with the conclusions even though I started the post slightly skeptical, and a look at discovercreativepaths maintained that pattern, writing that earns agreement through clarity of argument rather than rhetorical pressure is the kind I find most persuasive and the kind I want to read more of these days.
Deondag
Top quality material, deserves more attention than it probably gets, and a look at discoverforwardideas 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.
Calvinodosy
Will share this on a forum I am part of where it will be appreciated by others working in the same area, and a look at explorefreshgrowthideas suggests there is more here worth passing along too, definitely a generous resource that deserves a wider audience than it probably has today across the open internet.
Kyrieknige
Such writing is increasingly rare and worth supporting through attention, and a stop at findyournextdirection extended that supportive attention across more pages, the conscious choice to spend time on sites that produce careful work rather than convenient consumption is itself a small form of patronage and this site is receiving that conscious patronage from me.
JettAbupe
Useful read, especially because the writer did not assume too much background from the reader, and a quick look at growstepwisely continued in the same way, a thoughtful site that meets people where they are which is something the modern web could use a lot more of for both casual and serious readers.
Chadgax
Halfway through reading I knew this would be one to bookmark, and a look at buildscalableprogress confirmed that early intuition, when bookmark intent forms before finishing a post you know the writing has cleared a quality bar that most content fails to clear and this site has cleared it on multiple visits already.
JamarcusTic
Just want to say thank you for putting this together, posts like these make searching online actually worth it sometimes, and a quick look at jebbrood kept that going, useful and easy to read without any of the tricks that ruin most blog comment sections lately on the wider open web.
NathanSef
Felt the post had been quietly polished rather than aggressively styled, and a look at startbuildingvision confirmed the same understated polish, sites whose quality reveals itself slowly rather than announcing itself loudly are the kind I trust more deeply because the trust is not based on first impressions of marketing but actual substance.
ErikVup
Came away with a small but real shift in perspective on the topic, and a stop at learnandoptimizegrowth pushed that shift a bit further, the kind of subtle reframing that good writing does to a reader without making a big deal of it is something I always appreciate when it happens which is sadly not that often.
ZackUtelp
Now recognising that the post handled the topic with appropriate technical precision without becoming dry, and a stop at startnextleveldirection continued that balance, technical precision and readability are often in tension and this site has clearly figured out how to maintain both at once which is one of the harder editorial achievements in the form.
KalenWah
Came back to this twice now in the same week which is unusual for me, and a look at findgrowthsolutions suggested I will keep coming back, the kind of post that earns repeated visits rather than one and done reading is the gold standard for content quality and this site clearly hit that standard.
