Here is what brokerages have to say about the stock and the company after TPG’s investment announcement .

Jefferies

Jefferies has maintained the ‘buy’ rating and raised the target price to Rs 565 from Rs 435 per share.

TPG’s $ 1 billion investment values the EV business at $ 6.7-9.1 billion. It is a big value boost for an otherwise underappreciated opportunity. The balance sheet strength is going to drive portfolio electrification.

Nomura

Research house Nomura has upgraded the rating to ‘buy’ from ‘neutral’ on India PV electrification plans. It also raised the target to Rs 547 per share.

The capital raising provides credibility to EV investments and makes us confident of investment-led growth path, said the research firm.

HSBC

Brokerage house HSBC has kept the ‘buy’ rating and raised the target to Rs 550 from Rs 340 per share.

The lack of competition may continue to benefit its EV volumes. Incorporating EV value in target, while taper valuations for rest of PV business and JLR.

Motilal Oswal

Recovery is underway in all of the three businesses of Tata Motors. While the India CV business would see a cyclical recovery, the India PV business would witness a structural recovery.

JLR sees a cyclical recovery, supported by a favorable product mix. However, supply-side issues would defer the recovery process.

“The stock trades at 12x FY23E P/E, 3.8x EV/EBITDA, and 2.3x P/BV. We maintain the ‘buy’ rating with a target price of Rs 560/share (September 2023-based SoTP),” it said.
