S&P Global upgrades Tata Motors rating, says strong performance will continue in FY 2023-24
Tata Motors S&P Global Ratings has said in its report that the company's cash flow may improve in the next 12 to 18 months. With this, the sales of the company can increase.
S&P Global Ratings has upgraded the Long Term Rating on Tata Motors to 'BB' with Stable Outlook. The company's rating has been changed due to an improvement in earnings and a reduction in debt. Earlier, Tata Motors was assigned a 'BB-' rating by S&P Global Ratings.
According to S&P Ratings, the BB grade is considered to be at low risk in the near term. But in this, the company faces major uncertainties leading to adverse business, financial and economic conditions.
S&P Global Ratings said in a statement that Tata Motors and its 100 percent subsidiary JLR are expected to report healthy cash flow over the next 12-18 months due to improving operating conditions.
The rating agency said sales of commercial and passenger vehicles have grown by 30 percent and 50 percent on a compounded basis in the last two years.
It was also said that we expect the company's capital expenditure to increase to 3 billion pounds in the financial year 2023-24. At the same time, wholesale sales may increase to 3,90,000- 4,20,000 units during this period. At the same time, further said that we will continue to see the strong performance of Tata Motors in India.
