The figure for last year same quarter had been a loss of 3.3 billion rupees. The recorded increase in sales has therefore been 268.8 billion rupees which works out to a whooping 64 percent increase. There was a gain by 5.9 percent with the increase in sales of the Jaguar Land Rover cars and this even prompted BMW AG as well as Daimler AG forecasting rise in their profit margins.

Rattan Tata the chairman of the Tata groups is to retire in 2012 and his final aim is to open up Land Rover factories in India and China. A Mumbai based analyst Vaishali Jajoo writing for the Angel Broking Ltd descried the profit as good and the land Rovers performance in the market as “substantially good”. She even added that analysts had claimed a profit between the range of 11 billion rupees and 19 billion rupees.

TATA tried to sell cars in Australia but they didn’t do any good, so the dealerships closed up. I think they were seen as an unproven brand, too expensive for what they were offering and as such deemed as not value for money so the public were not willing to pay Japanese car prices (with the Japanese having a long history of proven makes and models) to an unknown third world car manufacturer.
