Morgan Stanley maintains overweight
Tata Motors share price target: Brokerage Morgan Stanley has maintained its overweight call with a target price of Rs 1,013. The brokerage held that the demerger reflects confidence in the PV business being self-sustaining. It also added that the new strategy can help in better value discovery. JLR and India PV will also have synergies in the electric vehicle era, added Morgan Stanley.
Macquarie maintains outperform call
Tata Motors share price target: Macquarie also maintained an outperform call with a target of Rs 1,028, stating that the pure play will enable better value discovery.
The conglomerate structure was constraining valuation upside, while the pure-play format will lend investment flexibility to investors. It further said that the PV segment valuation discount to Maruti could also narrow if Tata delivers on market share gains or better margins.
UBS on Tata Motors
Tata Motors share price target: UBS, on the contrary, maintained a sell with a target of Rs 600. The brokerage noted that the company's CV and PV business, which includes India EV and JLR, will simplify the corporate structure, but it does not see any material value. Further, it said it awaits more clarity on other aspects.
