Tata Motors’ share price drops following Q4 results 2024 announcement, with analysts predicting further downsides. The company remains cautiously optimistic, despite concerns over emerging demand.
Tata Motors Share Price Drop
On Monday, Tata Motors’ share price opened at ₹1,005 apiece on NSE and quickly fell to an intraday low of ₹947.20 per share. This represents an intraday loss of more than 9 percent. The drop is largely attributed to the Q4 results 2024 announced last week, which showed muted results with limited margin expansion across businesses despite higher volumes.
Analysts’ Perspective
Chirag Jain, Senior Research Analyst at Emkay Global Financial Services, links the share price drop to the Q4 results. He states, “While deleveraging progress continues, we believe the best may be behind for all businesses amid i) declining orderbook, normalizing mix, and higher customer acquisition costs at JLR, with FCF generation to normalize; ii) flattish growth outlook for domestic CV space; and iii) moderating India PV outlook.” He further predicts that Tata Motors’ share price may drop further to the tune of ₹950 apiece.
