AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

TATA MOTORS LIMITED

 

1. We have reviewed the accompanying statement of Unaudited Consolidated Financial Results (“the Statement”) of TATA MOTORS LIMITED (“the Company”), its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities (the Company, its subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities constitute “the Group”) and its share of the profit/losses of the associate companies for the quarter ended June 30, 2011. This Statement is the responsibility of the Company’s Management and has been approved by the Board of Directors. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the Statement based on our review.

 

2. We conducted our review of the Statement in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SRE) 2410 “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”, issued by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India. This Standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance as to whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of Company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and accordingly, we do not express an opinion.

 

3. (a) Attention is invited to Note 4 in the Statement. As stated in the note, changes in the actuarial valuation amounting to Rs. 43.35 crores (debit) for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 have been accounted in “Reserves and Surplus” in respect of a group of subsidiary companies.

(b) The Statement reflects the (i) Group’s share of Revenues of Rs. 20,687.50 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011; Group’s share of Profit after tax (net) of Rs. 1,593.95 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 relating to subsidiaries; and (ii) the Group’s share of Profit after tax of Rs. 5.15 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 relating to associates. Financial statements and other financial information of these subsidiaries and associates have been reviewed by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us by the Company’s Management, and our report in so far as it relates to the amounts included in respect of these subsidiaries and associates is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

(c) The financial statements of thirteen subsidiaries and two joint ventures which reflect the Group’s share of Revenues of Rs. 545.58 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011; Group’s share of Loss after tax (net) of Rs. 84.21 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011; and the financial statements of two associates which reflect the Group’s share of Profit after tax (net) of Rs. 3.51 crores for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 have not been reviewed by their auditors.

 

4. Based on our review and read with our comments in paragraph 3(a) above and subject to our comments in paragraph 3(c) above, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Statement, prepared in accordance with the Accounting Standards referred to in Section 211 (3C) of the Companies Act, 1956 and other recognised accounting practices and policies, has not disclosed the information required to be disclosed in terms of Clause 41 of the Listing Agreements with the stock exchanges, including the manner in which it is to be disclosed, or that it contains any material misstatement.

 

5. Further, we also report that we have traced the number of shares as well as the percentage of shareholding in respect of the aggregate amount of public shareholding and the number of shares as well as the percentage of shares pledged/encumbered and non-encumbered in respect of the aggregate amount of promoter and promoter group shareholding in terms of Clause 35 of the Listing Agreements and the particulars relating to the undisputed investor complaints, from the details furnished by the Management.

Notes:-

 

1) Figures for the previous periods has been regrouped / reclassified wherever necessary.
2) In October 2008, the Company decided to move the Nano project from Singur in West Bengal to Sanand in Gujarat. On June 21, 2011, the newly elected Government of West Bengal, pursuant to a legislation enacted on June 14, 2011 and notified on June 20, 2011, expropriated the entire property consisting of buildings and leasehold land at Singur. The Company has challenged the legal validity of the legislation in the Court of Law, the outcome of which is pending as of the date of approval of these financial results by the Board of Directors. Based on management’s assessment no provision is considered necessary to the carrying cost of building at Singur.
3) 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 no tax effect is recorded in respect of consolidation adjustments. This accounting treatment is as per accounting standard AS-21. Further, the tax expense is lower due to set off of carry forward losses of certain subsidiary companies.
4) The net amount of LOGO 43.35 crores (debit) for quarter ended June 30, 2011 ( LOGO 95.66 crores (debit) for the quarter ended June 30, 2010), of changes in actuarial valuation of pension plans of Jaguar Cars Ltd and Land Rover, UK, have been accounted in “Reserves and Surplus” in accordance with IFRS principles and permitted by AS 21 in the consolidated financial statements. This treatment is consistent with the accounting principles followed by Jaguar Cars Ltd and Land Rover, UK, under IFRS.
5) Automotive operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries represent the reportable segment, rest are classified as ‘Others’. Automotive segment consists of all types of commercial and passenger vehicles including financing of the vehicles sold by the Company. Others primarily include engineering solutions and software operations.
