2. AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
The automotive industry began in the 1890s with hundreds of manufacturers that
pioneered the horseless carriage
After World War II, the U.S. produced about 75 percent of world's auto production. In
1980, the U.S. was overtaken by Japan and became world's leader again in 1994.
In 2006, Japan narrowly passed the U.S. in production and held this rank until 2009, when
China took the top spot with 13.8 million units
With 19.3 million units manufactured in 2012, China almost doubled the U.S. production,
with 10.3 million units, while Japan was in third place with 9.9 million units
The first car ran on India's roads in 1897. Until the 1930s, cars were imported directly, but
in very small numbers.

7. ISSUES AND CHALLENGES
Competitive pressures
The rapid development of the low-cost labour economies in Eastern Europe, South East
Asia, China and India is putting enormous pressures on labour intensive suppliers
Sustainability
Increasingly, environmental considerations and public opinion are driving manufacturers'
decisions around the mix of materials used in manufacturing, the types of engine and the
end of vehicle life (ELV)
Supply chain management and cost reduction
In the age of global trading, supply chains never stand still.
Therefore, supply chain architectures must be kept under constant review in order for then
to be both logistically efficient and cost effective.
Emerging markets
Rapid economic developments in emerging markets, notably China and India, are providing
significant opportunities to increase sales and reduce costs

12. TURNAROUND STRATEGY
⢠Tata Power Delhi Distribution by winning hearts and changing
mindsets, and through technology and commercial savvy
⢠transformed a loss-making government entity into an efficient
and profitable operation that has become a benchmark for
public-private partnerships
13. R&D STRATEGY
⢠Tata Group companies cumulatively spend Rs.12,500 crore on
research & development.
⢠knowledge-based engineering application software from Tata
Technologies that speeds up results.
⢠An engine âstart-stopâ technology developed by Jaguar Land Rover
that stops an engine when the vehicle isn't moving, thus saving on
fuel;
⢠High performance rail steel that saved £150,000 over five years was
developed by Tata Steel Europe
⢠High standard steel for safer and fuel efficient vehicles from Tata
Steel Europe
⢠The world's cheapest car, Nano, an innovation from Group company
Tata Motors, launched in April 2009, has 37 patents,
⢠Swach, the cheapest water filter from Tata Chemicals, has 14.
⢠Tata Steel, which acquired British company Corus in 2007,
meanwhile, files around 50 patents each year.
14. P2 STRATEGIES
⢠P2 or pollution prevention is a proactive strategy that
uses fewer or smarter resources to begin requiring
lesser cleanup at the final disposal.
⢠It is done by reducing or eliminating waste at the
source by modifying production processes, promoting
the use of non-toxic or less-toxic substances,
implementing conservation techniques, and re-using
materials rather than putting them into the waste
stream.
⢠It assumes no waste will occur. It is an effective âgetting
more from lessâ strategy.
15. ⢠Reducing packaging material by either using
sustainable packaging (replacing wood with
metal) or reusing existing packaging (recycling
wood).
⢠The company recycles close to 69 percent of the
wood packaging thus eliminating use of fresh
wood.
⢠The company aims to source 60% of its
components from the park thereby increasing its
resource efficiency and reducing its emissions
due to reduction in logistics and transportation.
16. R2 STRATEGIES
⢠This is a âgetting more from the sameâ strategy where
otherwise wasted resources are recovered by way of
proper disposal â recycling or reconditioning.
⢠Increasing life of aggregates â âReconâ business
⢠In 2010-11 a total of 13,788 engines and 8,690 other
parts were reconditioned.
⢠Other resource conservation techniques like reusing
engine oil for multiple testing cycles has been
employed.
⢠A 200 litre engine oil barrel can now be used to test
170 engines instead of 85.
17. ⢠Reusing paint sludge and thinner
⢠Last year, approximately 390 tonnes of hazardous
paint sludge was converted to a low quality paint
suitable for floor painting.
⢠Tata Motors has also developed a process to convert
the incinerator ash to pavement bricks that can be
used in walkways within the plant.
⢠This model has been very successful and has
significantly reduced the amount of hazardous
incinerated ash sent to landfills.
18. SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS:
⢠CONSOLIDATED net profits of Rs 1988.73crores for the quarter ended June30, 2010 on
the back of strong sales in the domestic market and a good show of J&LR.
