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.

Reading this prompted me to clean up some old notes related to the topic, and a stop at learnandexecutewisely extended that organising urge, content that triggers personal organisation rather than just consuming attention is content with motivating energy and this site has the kind of clarity that prompts active follow up rather than passive consumption.
ArnoldBlofe
Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at discoverforwardthinkingpaths kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.
Nicolasdealp
Worth saying that the writing carries a particular kind of authority without making any explicit claims to it, and a stop at featlake extended that earned authority feeling, sites that demonstrate expertise through the quality of their explanations rather than by stating credentials are sites I trust most and this site has it.
Issacchari
Started this morning and finished at lunch with a small sense of having spent the time well, and a look at apexhelm extended that satisfaction into the afternoon, content that fits naturally into the rhythm of a working day rather than demanding a dedicated reading block is increasingly the kind I prefer.
DwightPigma
Appreciated that the writer trusted the reader to follow along without constant restating of earlier points, and a look at strategycreatesmomentum continued that respect for the reader, treating an audience as capable adults rather than as people to be hand held through every paragraph is something I notice and value highly across the open internet today.
Hectorspade
Quiet confidence runs through the whole post, no need to shout to make the points stick, and a stop at micapact carried that same restrained voice forward, content that respects the reader by trusting its own substance rather than dressing it up in theatrical language is what I look for online and rarely actually find these days.
EnriqueBef
Decided after reading this that I would check this site weekly going forward, and a stop at createforwarddirection reinforced that commitment, deciding to add a site to a regular rotation requires meeting a quality bar that very few places clear and this one cleared it cleanly without any noticeable effort or marketing push behind it.
GordonHem
Solid post, the structure is easy to follow and the language stays simple even when the topic gets a bit more involved, and a look at harbortrailcommercegallery kept that same standard going, so I left feeling like the time spent here was actually worth something for once which is rare lately.
IgnacioHok
Worth saying that the prose reads naturally without straining for style, and a stop at forwardthinkingpaths maintained the same unforced quality, writing that achieves elegance without effort is the highest tier and this site has clearly worked out how to land that effortless quality consistently rather than only on the writers best days.
NormanDax
Over the course of reading several posts here a pattern of quality has emerged, and a stop at createimpactdirection confirmed the pattern, the difference between sites that hit quality occasionally and sites that hit it consistently is huge and this site has clearly demonstrated the consistent kind through what I have read this morning.
Seangex
Looking through other posts here the consistency is what makes the site valuable rather than any single piece, and a stop at waveharborartisanexchange extended that consistency observation, sites whose value lies in the ongoing pattern rather than in standout posts are sites I trust more deeply and this one has clearly built that kind of trust.
Wilburhok
Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at startbuildingmomentumclearly confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.
BenEreby
Closed three other tabs to focus on this one and never opened them again, and a stop at knackdome similarly held attention exclusively, content that crowds out other reading from working memory is content with real density and this site has demonstrated that density across multiple pages I have visited so far this morning.
Murrayinfiz
Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at graingroves 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.
Deshawnkic
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at northdawn showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
TedFLurl
Generally I do not leave comments but this post merits a small note, and a stop at edgecradle extended that comment worthy quality, the urge to actively contribute to a sites community rather than passively consume from it is something specific content provokes and this site has provoked that engagement urge from me today.
Konnordaulp
Worth flagging this post as worth a careful read rather than a casual skim, and a stop at foxarbor earned the same careful approach, the few sites that warrant slower reading are sites I now treat differently from the daily content stream and this one has clearly moved into that elevated treatment category.
SamuelVophy
My usual response to new bookmarks is to forget them but this one I have already returned to twice, and a look at amberharborartisanexchange pulled me back a third time, the actual return rate to bookmarked sites is the real measure of value and this one is clearing that measure at a notable rate already.
Judepex
In the middle of an otherwise scattered day this post landed as a moment of focus, and a stop at createbettermomentum extended that focused feeling across more pages, content that anchors a fragmented day rather than contributing to the fragmentation is content with real centring effect and this site is providing that anchoring function for me.
PeterApele
Really like that the writer trusts the reader to follow simple logic without restating every previous point, and a stop at bravofarm kept that respect going, treating an audience as capable adults rather than as people who need constant hand holding makes a noticeable difference in the reading experience for me.
MattTep
Worth saying that the quiet confidence of the writing is what landed first, and a look at mintdawn continued that quiet quality, confident writing without the loud display of confidence is a rare combination and this site has clearly developed both the knowledge and the editorial restraint to land that combination consistently.
Lawsonedind
A piece that did not lean on the writer credentials or institutional backing, and a look at feltglen 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.
IgnacioAnnep
A piece that did not lean on the writer credentials or institutional backing, and a look at ebongreen 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.
EmilianoDax
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 knackpact 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.
ScottSmils
Found the rhythm of the prose particularly enjoyable on this read through, and a look at tealthicket kept that musical quality going across the related pages, sentence rhythm is something most blog writers ignore but it makes a real difference in how content lands with the careful reader who cares.
Marionenly
Felt the writer was being honest with the reader which is rare enough that I want to acknowledge it, and a look at windharborartisanexchange continued that honest feel, content built on actual knowledge rather than aggregated summaries is something I value highly and rarely come across in regular searches on the open internet these days.
IanHeini
Felt the writer respected me as a reader without making a show of doing so, and a look at marblecovemerchantgallery continued that quiet respect, this is the kind of small but meaningful detail that separates the sites I bookmark from the ones I close after a single skim and never return to again no matter how interesting the headline.
RolandoRax
Honestly enjoyed not being sold anything for the entire duration of the post, and a look at freshguilds 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.
CamdenLix
Took me back a step or two on an assumption I had been making, and a stop at createforwardprogress pushed that reconsideration further, writing that gently corrects the reader without being aggressive about it is a rare diplomatic skill and the team here clearly knows how to land critical points without turning readers off.
Tristanskide
Will recommend this to a couple of friends who have been asking about this exact topic, and after novalog 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.

CoreyMaicy
Genuinely glad I clicked through to read this rather than skipping past, and a stop at growththroughalignment confirmed I should keep clicking through to more pages here, the kind of resource that justifies its place in my browser history rather than feeling like wasted time which is the highest compliment I offer any site online today.
RyanCendy
Looking through the archives suggests this site has been doing this for a while at this level, and a look at findmomentumforward confirmed the long term consistency, sites that have maintained quality across years rather than just a recent stretch are sites with serious editorial discipline and this one has clearly been at it for a while.
BarneyPhype
Now thinking I want more sites built on this kind of editorial foundation, and a stop at amberharborcraftcollective extended that wish into a broader hope, sites built on substance and care rather than on metrics and growth are the kind of sites I want to see more of and this one is a small example worth supporting.
Seanzodiz
Adding this site to my regular reading list, the post earned that on its own, and a quick stop at startmovingwithclarity sealed the decision, the kind of place worth checking back with from time to time because it consistently produces material that holds up against a critical reading too which I really value.
ReggieCab
A genuine compliment to the writer for keeping the post focused on what mattered, and a look at freshguild continued that disciplined focus, focus is a editorial choice that compounds across many small decisions and this site has clearly made those small decisions consistently across what I have read so far this week here.
MikeGrave
Walked away with a clearer head than I had before reading this, and a quick visit to exploreuntappeddirectionideas only sharpened that, the writing has a way of cutting through the noise that surrounds most topics online which is something I will definitely remember the next time I am searching for an answer to anything.
Alvinhat
Glad to have another reliable bookmark for this topic, and a look at bravopier suggested several more pages I will be marking too, building a personal library of trustworthy resources is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is earning a place on my permanent shortlist for the topic.
Ammonoxync
Now noticing how rare it is to find a site that does not feel rushed, and a look at musebeat 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.
Paxtonimpab
Solid post, the structure is easy to follow and the language stays simple even when the topic gets a bit more involved, and a look at growthwithprecision kept that same standard going, so I left feeling like the time spent here was actually worth something for once which is rare lately.
Normanvat
Liked that there was nothing performative about the writing, and a stop at findyournextstrategicmove continued that genuine quality, performative writing tries to be witnessed rather than read and the difference between performance and substance is huge for the careful reader and this site has clearly chosen substance every time clearly.
XanderTag
Even from a single post the editorial care is clear, and a stop at festglade extended that care across more pages, the kind of attention to quality that shows up in every paragraph is what separates serious sites from the rest and this one has clearly invested in that paragraph level attention across what I have read.
BernardWak
Reading more of the archives is now on my plan for the weekend, and a stop at createforwardplanning confirmed the archive worth the time, the rare archive worth a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the rare archive of serious work and this site has clearly produced enough of that work to warrant the deeper exploration.
RoyGem
If the topic interests you at all this is a place to spend time, and a look at lacecabin reinforced that recommendation, the broader question of where to invest topical reading time is one this site answers convincingly through the consistent quality across multiple pieces I have sampled during the current reading session today.
Brycescona
Reading the writers other posts after this one suggests the quality is consistent rather than peak, and a stop at woodcoveartisanexchange confirmed the consistent quality reading, sites that hold the same level across many pieces rather than peaking on a few are sites with sustainable editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that.
ReneNeaph
Reading this in pieces over a coffee break and finding it consistently rewarding, and a stop at etherledges extended that into related material I will return to later, the kind of site that fits naturally into small reading windows without requiring a long uninterrupted block is genuinely useful for how I actually browse.
HugoDef
Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at edgedial cemented the impression, you can tell within the first few paragraphs whether a site is going to be worth the time and this one delivered on that early promise nicely throughout the rest of what I read.
PaulAdurb
Now planning to write about the topic myself eventually using this post as a reference, and a look at oakarena would also serve in that future piece, content that becomes raw material for my own writing rather than just informing my reading is content with multiplicative value and this site is generating that multiplicative effect.
