Tata Motors Stock Rises After Jaguar Land Rover Resumes Exports
Shares of Tata Motors Ltd. rose over 2% in early trade on Monday, after its UK subsidiary, Jaguar Land Rover, resumed exports to the United States, after a month-long pause, despite an auto tariff still in place.
On April 2, an executive order issued by US President Donald Trump actualised a 25% tariff on all foreign carmakers. The import tariff was applicable on fully assembled cars immediately and on auto components from May 3.
As a result, JLR paused its US exports for a month on May 5. Now, with the shipments resuming, the first vehicles are likely to reach American shores by May 20.
“The USA is an important market for JLR's luxury brands and 25% tariffs on autos remain in place,” a spokesperson for the British marquee said in an email on Saturday. “As we work towards addressing the US trading terms with our business partners, we are enacting our planned short-term actions.”
In FY24, US contributed 23% to JLR's revenue and 26% to its wholesale volumes from the US. That jumped to 33% in the nine months through Dec. 31.
