Tata Motors Share Price: Tata Motors inched lower in early deals on Thursday after Mumbai's civic transport body Brihanmumbai Electricity Supply and Transport Undertaking (BEST) removed 400 Tata CNG buses from the roads following three incidents of the vehicle catching fire. Tata Motors shares declined by as much as Rs 2.3 or 0.5 per cent to Rs 427.2 apiece on BSE.
BEST said the decision is in view of incidents of fire in the vehicle and that it would reverse the move once the safety of passengers is ensured.
"Though it may cause inconvenience to commuters but public safety is of utmost importance to BEST and we can not compromise on that. There may be some changes in the schedules due to this. Commuters may keep this in mind while planning the journey for next few days," BEST said on Twitter.
