Tata Motors began in 1945 in India producing locomotives and their first car in 1954. They now own Jaguar and Land Rover and produce a range of affordable vehicles like the Nano. Tata is part of the larger Tata Group consisting of over 100 companies focused on engineering, materials, energy, chemicals and more. Tata is committed to corporate social responsibility through environmental initiatives and community development programs. While Tata Motors stock has declined in the past year, the company has significantly grown their sales, assets, and profits through expanding in India and acquiring foreign automakers.
