Tata plans to take off these stocks from bourses

MUMBAI: The Tata Group plans to prune the choice of its indexed corporations, both through mergers or divestments, a top govt conversant in the matter stated.

The nation’s greatest private sector conglomerate has 30 corporations indexed on the stock exchanges, which collectively give it a marketplace capitalisation of over $160 billion. The plan is to have restricted but a key set of companies on the bourses, the individual stated.

The proposed move will simplify the gang’s company structure and help its control build up focus on key entities whilst exiting small and non-core companies, the executive explained. The staff’s considering is that some indexed corporations are small in terms of marketplace capitalisation, revenue and profit, and these could be folded into the principle companies. “And if the principle company isn't excited by acquiring them, then these could be bought to exterior events,” the executive added.

For instance, within the hospitality sector, the gang has three indexed corporations — Indian Hotels, Benares Hotels and Oriental Hotels. Likewise, within the materials phase, it has six indexed entities — Tata Steel, Tata Sponge Iron, Tata Metaliks, TRF, Tayo Rolls (which is within the means of being close down) and the not too long ago received Bhushan Steel.


It is rather easier to go for a merger when the smaller corporations are subsidiaries of the father or mother or are into equivalent or adjacent traces of companies of the father or mother. For example, the merger of CMC with TCS helped the conglomerate consolidate its IT products and services business. There has been speculation that Tata Elxsi too will be blended with TCS. Additionally, one of the indexed corporations came into the Tata Group’s fold through acquisitions — Tata Coffee and Tata Communications.


It is unclear how the mergers will play out some of the staff’s indexed client products, agri and retail companies. It has been long speculated that Tata Coffee will be amalgamated with Tata Global, whilst Rallis will be blended with Tata Chemicals. However, with the present plans of consolidating the packaged meals business beneath a unmarried entity, the lentils, salts and spices business housed beneath Tata Chemicals could be brought beneath Tata Global in conjunction with Tata Coffee.


In the retail business, with two indexed companies — Trent and Titan, the consolidation efforts will take time as there are strategic partners and financial buyers retaining stakes, the individual stated. In Titan, the Tamil Nadu govt is a joint venture partner retaining just about 28 consistent with cent stake.
