Incorporated in 1989, Tata Technologies is a leading global engineering services and digital services company that specialises in providing innovative solutions to the automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors.
Tata Technologies is a subsidiary of Tata Motors. This is an IPO from a Tata group company after a span of 19 years, following the successful Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) IPO in June 2004. The Pune based company specialises in providing outsourced engineering services and driving digital transformations for clients worldwide. They have a workforce of over 11,000 employees spread across 18 global delivery canters.
The company’s core focus lies in assisting companies throughout the entire product development process, from conception and design to development and delivery, ultimately enabling the creation of superior products. Tata Motors and Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) are among the top five clients for Tata Technologies. It also counts VinFast, a southeast Asian EV OEM, among its most important clients.
The company saw a CAGR rise of over 22% in its revenue from operations and over 37% in its profit between FY21 and FY23. Moreover, the global engineering, research and development (ER&D) spend is expected to reach $2.67 trillion by 2026 from $1.81 trillion as of 2022. Out of these, ER&D spend outsourced to third-party service providers is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 11-13% between 2022 and 2026. All this could be beneficial for the company.
This company is now launching the Tata Technologies Ltd IPO. The Tata Technologies IPO will be a complete offer for sale where existing shareholders and promoters will offload over six crore shares. Meanwhile, the company shares will be listed on NSE and BSE.
