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.

Thanks for the clean writing, no broken sentences and no awkward translations like some other sites have, and a quick stop at alpinecovecraftcollective kept that polish going nicely, it really does make a difference when a reader can move through a page without tripping on every line or going back to reread.

Picked this site to mention to a colleague who would benefit, and a look at elmharborcraftcollective added more material I will pass along, recommending sites to colleagues is a higher bar than recommending to friends because the professional context demands more careful curation and this site cleared the professional bar without me having to think.
MathewGeomy
Reading this brought back an idea I had set aside months ago, and a stop at sageharborcommercegallery added more substance to that idea, content that revives dormant projects in my own thinking is content with serious creative value and this site is contributing to my own work in ways I had not expected when first clicking through.
PedroZiply
Liked the careful word choice throughout, every term seemed picked for a reason rather than thrown in casually, and a stop at ravengrovetradehall 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.
WileyHob
Vague feelings of recognition kept surfacing as I read because the writing names things I have been thinking, and a look at opendealsmarket produced more of those recognition moments, content that gives shape to private intuitions is content that makes me feel less alone in my own thinking and this site has that effect.
JohnathanAnogy
Quietly the writers approach to the topic differs from the dominant takes I have been encountering, and a stop at everjumbo extended that distinctive approach, content that maintains a different perspective without explicitly arguing against the dominant ones is content with confident editorial identity and this site has that confidence throughout pieces.
SullivanCep
Coming back tomorrow when I can give this a proper read, the post deserves better attention than I can give right now, and a look at brightharborartisanexchange suggests there is plenty more here that deserves the same treatment, definitely a site I will be exploring properly over the next few days when I can.
Wadekex
Reading carefully this time rather than scanning, and the depth shows up in places I missed first time around, and a look at creekharborcraftcollective rewarded the same careful approach, content that holds up to multiple reads is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable scroll fodder daily.
Kobeacema
Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at gingercovecraftcollective kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.
Andrebab
Found the use of subheadings really helpful for scanning back through the post later, and a stop at portolive kept that reader friendly approach going, navigation is something many blog writers ignore but small structural choices make a noticeable difference for someone returning to find a specific point again days or weeks later.
WayneJalge
Worth saying that this is one of the better things I have read on the topic in months, and a stop at frostridgecraftcollective reinforced that ranking, the topic is well covered by many sources but few do it with this level of care and the few that do deserve to be flagged so other readers can find them.
JasonWarie
Came across this through a roundabout path and now it is on my regular rotation, and a stop at violetharborcraftcollective sealed that decision, the open web still produces serendipitous discoveries when you let the citations and references guide you rather than relying purely on algorithmic feeds for new content recommendations always.
Tomjek
Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at honeycovecraftcollective 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.
DexterBiree
A piece that built up gradually rather than front loading its main points, and a look at flarequill maintained the same gradual structure, content that trusts the reader to reach conclusions through accumulating reasoning is more persuasive than content that announces conclusions and then defends them and this site uses the persuasive approach.
Jaybaf
Speaking from the perspective of a fairly demanding reader the writing here clears the bar consistently, and a look at flintmeadowcommercegallery continued clearing that bar, the calibration of demanding reader is something I apply to all sources and this site has been one of the few that handles the demanding reading well across pieces sampled.
Hankeagew
Learned something from this without having to dig through layers of fluff, and a stop at tealharborcommercegallery added a bit more context that helped tie things together for me, definitely a useful corner of the internet for anyone who wants real information without the usual marketing nonsense around it that often ruins similar pages.
Jermainehef
Now wishing more sites covered topics with this level of care, and a look at waveharborartisanexchange extended that wish across more subjects, the rarity of careful coverage on most topics is a problem and this site is one of the small antidotes to that broader pattern of casual or surface treatment of complex subjects.
Princedrape
Took me back a step or two on an assumption I had been making, and a stop at amberharborartisanexchange 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.
CorySed
Definitely a recommend from me, anyone curious about the topic should check this out, and a look at trustedshoppinghub adds even more reason for that, the depth and quality combine to make this site one I will be pointing people toward whenever similar conversations come up over the months ahead at work or socially.
FredSah
Reading this in the gap between work projects was a small but meaningful break, and a stop at floraridgeartisanexchange extended that gentle reset, content that provides genuine refreshment rather than just distraction during work breaks is content with a particular kind of utility and this site fits that role for me reliably during work days.
Ryderbap
Bookmark added with a small mental note that this is a site to keep, and a look at timbertrailartisanexchange reinforced the keep status, the verb keep rather than visit captures something about how I think about this kind of site and it is a higher tier of relationship than I have with most places online today.
DerekAmils
A piece that did not waste any of its substance on sales or promotion, and a look at rivercovevendorparlor continued that pure content focus, sites that resist the urge to monetise every paragraph are increasingly rare and this one has clearly made the editorial choice to keep the writing clean from commercial intrusion which I value highly.
BarneyErrox
Looking at the surface design and the substance together this site has both right, and a look at crowncovecraftcollective reinforced that integrated quality, sites where presentation and content reinforce each other rather than fighting are sites with full editorial coherence and this one has clearly invested in both layers in a balanced way.
Sethhow
Honestly this kind of writing is why I still bother to read independent sites, and a look at portpoise extended that broader reflection, the few sites that justify continued attention to non algorithmic content are sites like this one and finding them periodically is enough to keep my reading habits oriented toward independent rather than aggregated content.
KalebQuest
Took a screenshot of one section to come back to later, and a stop at garnetharborcraftcollective 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.
Garrettmut
Held my interest from the opening line through to the closing thought, and a stop at coralharborcraftcollective did the same, content that earns sustained attention in an environment full of distractions is doing something right and this site is clearly doing several things right rather than just one or two which I really appreciate.
Linwoodpax
Once you find a site like this the search for similar voices begins, and a look at forestcovemerchantgallery extended the search energy, finding a high quality reference point makes the gap between it and adjacent sources visible in a way it was not before and this site has provided that high reference point across multiple recent visits.
Iangadly
Bookmark added in three places to make sure I do not lose the link, and a look at walnutcovecraftcollective got the same redundant treatment, sites I am afraid to lose are the rare keepers and this is clearly one of them based on what I have read so far across this and a couple of related posts.
Devantebeino
A piece that earned its conclusions through the body rather than asserting them at the end, and a look at uplandcovemerchantgallery maintained the same earned quality, conclusions that follow from what came before are more persuasive than declarations and this site has clearly internalised that principle in how it constructs arguments throughout pieces.
Brendonmog
Worth flagging this post as worth a careful read rather than a casual skim, and a stop at icicleisleartisanexchange 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.
Codynex
Thanks for the readable length, I finished it without checking how much was left, and a stop at seameadowcommercegallery kept me reading the same way, when I stop noticing the length of a piece because the content is engaging enough to sustain attention without willpower the writer has done their job well today.
Dorianlen
A clear case of writing that does not try to do too much in one post, and a look at amberharbormerchantgallery maintained the same scoped discipline, posts that try to cover too much end up covering nothing well and this site has clearly chosen scope discipline as a core editorial principle which shows up clearly in what I read.
ScottFenry
Decided to read this site for a while before forming a verdict, and the verdict after several pages is positive, and a stop at brightharborcraftcollective continued that pattern, judging a site requires more than one post and giving sites a fair sample is something I try to do for promising candidates rather than rushing to dismiss.
Walterfleks
Bookmark earned, calendar reminder set, share queued, all from one good post, and a look at amberharborcraftcollective 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.
Kieranheelf
Found the post genuinely useful for something I was working on this week, and a look at gladeridgeartisanexchange added more material I will reference, content that connects to my actual life and work rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind I will pay attention to and return to repeatedly.
TravisamumE
Bookmark added with a small note about why, and a look at flickaltar 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.
GabrielVox
Reading this slowly because the writing rewards a slower pace, and a stop at trailharborartisanexchange did the same, the pace at which I read content is something I now use as a quality signal and writing that earns a slower pace earns my attention as a reader looking for substance these days.
Borisrah
The tone stayed consistent across the whole post which is harder than it looks for longer pieces, and a look at windharborartisanexchange continued the same voice, this kind of editorial consistency is a sign of either a single careful writer or a tightly run team and either is impressive today across the broader media environment.
Rexsig
Felt the writer did the homework before publishing, the references hold up, and a look at ivypiers continued that documented care, content with traceable claims rather than vague assertions is the kind I trust and the lack of bald assertion in this post is one of its quietly impressive qualities for me.
Stewartsoini
Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at crystalcoveartisanexchange 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.
JamelTum
Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at gildedcovecraftcollective continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.

Cuts through the usual marketing fluff that dominates this topic online, and a stop at seameadowgoodsgallery kept the same clean approach going, this is the kind of writing that respects the reader’s time rather than wasting it on repetitive setups before finally getting to the point at hand which is what most sites do.

Now setting aside time on my next free afternoon to read more from the archives, and a stop at ivoryharborcommercegallery 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.
Cordellweape
A piece that built up gradually rather than front loading its main points, and a look at apricotharborvendorroom maintained the same gradual structure, content that trusts the reader to reach conclusions through accumulating reasoning is more persuasive than content that announces conclusions and then defends them and this site uses the persuasive approach.
Masonuncex
Once I had read three posts the editorial pattern was clear, and a look at birchharborcommercegallery confirmed the pattern from a fourth angle, sites where the underlying approach reveals itself through accumulated reading rather than being announced are sites with real depth and this one has that quality clearly visible across multiple pieces consistently.
Maxwellbit
A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at waveharborcraftcollective suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.
