Tata Motors races to regain EV dominance with Harrier.ev launch as rivals gain ground
Just a year ago, Tata Motors commanded 73% of India's electric passenger vehicle market. However, a surge in rival launches and their quick adoption by EV buyers has eroded Tata's lead, making the Harrier.ev a crucial addition to its lineup.
Tata Motors' electric car sales fell 15% in May 2025 as it delivered 4,316 units compared to 5,083 in the same month last year. This decline reduced its share in the small but fast-growing EV market to 35%. In contrast, JSW MG Motor India's share in this segment rose to 30% share as its sales, thanks to the high demand for its Windsor model, grew by 159% year-on-year to 3,737 units.
Mahindra & Mahindra, which commenced deliveries of the BE 6 and XEV 9E in March this year, sold 2,605 EVs in May 2025, boosting its market share to 21%. The company has delivered 10,000 units of these models since deliveries began on March 20.
Tata Motors Passenger Vehicle and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Managing Director Shailesh Chandra recently said that they have aspirations to have more than 50% market share in the EV market in the mid-to-long term. 'We would aspire to be at a 50 per cent market share by having a very wide product portfolio and products which are aligned to the expectation of the customers,' he stated.

The company's asset book for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) expanded by 28 per cent YoY to Rs 6,523 crore as of June 30, 2025. 'The growth is driven by secured offerings such as Loan Against Property (LAP), which now accounts for 44 per cent of total SME assets, compared to 33 per cent last year. Asset quality in this segment remains strong, with Stage 3 assets at 1.4 per cent as of the quarter-end,' the company said.

The gross loan book stood at Rs 1.22 trillion as of June 30, 2025, up 15 per cent YoY, and up by just 2 per cent on a quarter-to-quarter basis. The slowdown in disbursements was attributed to moderate growth in the underlying wheels business, the company added.
