    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

    Tata Motors Ltd. is Indias largest automobile company. It is the leader by far in

    commercial vehicles in each segment, and the second largest in the passenger carmarket with winning products in the compact, midsize car and utility vehicle

    segments. The company is the worlds fifth largest medium and heavy commercial

    vehicle manufacturer and the world's second largest medium and heavy bus

    manufacturer. The combined group turnover for the year ended 31st March 2008

    was Rs. Crores.

    A subsidiary company, in business matters, is an entity that is controlled by other

    entity. The controlled entity is called a subsidiary company, and the controllingentity is called holding company. Subsidiaries are a common feature of business

    life and most if not all major businesses organize their operations in this way. The

    reason for this distinction is that a lone company cannot be a subsidiary of any

    organization; only an entity representing a legal fiction as a separate entity can be a

    subsidiary.

    Subsidiaries are separate, distinct legal entities for the purposes of taxation and

    regulation. For this reason, they differ from divisions, which are businesses fully

    integrated within the main company, and not legally or otherwise distinct from it

    As per 31st March 2008, Tata Motors Ltd had 30 subsidiaries as per the Indian

    GAAP Financials including the ultimate subsidiaries. As on 31st March 2008, the

    total investment made by TML in these subsidiaries aggregated to Rs.2249.71

    crores.

    Guided by the Financials, I have identified 11 subsidiaries as the major ones and

    have confined my further analyses to these 11 companies. Out of the total 30

    subsidiaries, I have selected these 11 ones because of the various reasons like- the

    contribution in the Tata Motors production process, their diversified nature of

    business, and some are the subsidiary of the subsidiary company.

    The TML subsidiary companies like Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Co. Ltd is

    another major manufacturer of commercial vehicles in Korea, HV Axles and HV

    Transmissions supply automobile component, Tata Technologies Ltd Companyprovides high-tech cost effective IT and E&D consultancy etc.

    2. the words , managing agent, secretaries and treasurers omitted by Act 53 of

    2000, sec. 4 (w.e.f. 13-12-2000).

    3. Subs. by Act 65 of 1960, sec. 3, for clause (c) (w.e.f. 28-12-1960).

    4. Ins. by Act 65 of I960, sec. 3 (w.e.f. 28-12-1960).

    The holding company usually holds the majority of the paid up equity capital. A

    company may itself a holding company and at the same time, be a subsidiary of

    other company.

    A company may be formed and then it may proceed to float the other company

    inviting others to join but holding the majority of shares in these companies. Such a

    holding company is known as parent company. When existing companies wishing

    to avoid competition, float company which then proceeds to acquire the majority of

    shares in the existing company, the name given to the holding company isoffspring company.

    Holding companies have been used extensively to further the combination

    movement. It was found to be useful in bringing a number of companies under one

    control.

    Advantages of Holding Companies are as follows.

    1) Subsidiary companies maintain their separate identity as such, they maintain

    their goodwill.

    2) The public may not be aware of the existence of combination among the

    various companies and, therefore, the fruits of monopoly or near monopoly

    may be enjoyed without resentment in the minds of the people.

    This, however is a clearly a disadvantage from the social point of view,

    because if there is a monopoly, the public ought to know.

  • 7/28/2019 Overview on the TATA Motors Subsidiaries

    15/52

    3) The person controlling the holding company needs to invest a comparatively

    small amount in order to control subsidiary companies.

    For e.g. A is a holding company, has two subsidiaries ,B and C and B and C

    in turn have three subsidiaries each, the persons who have the majority of shares

    in A will be able to control eight other companies had these companies

    amalgamated ,a much larger amount would have been required in order to

    control the concern.

    (This is again a disadvantage from the social point of view, because it may lead

    to irresponsibility.)

    4) By maintaining the separate identity of various companies, it would be

    possible to carry forward losses for income tax purposes.

    5) Each subsidiary company has to prepare its own accounts and, therefore the

    financial position and profitability of each undertaking is known.

    6) Should it be found desirable that the control of the holding company should

    be given up, it can be easily arranged, all that is required is that the shares in

    the subsidiary companies should be disposed off in the market.

    Disadvantages of holding companies are the following:

    1) There is the possibility of fraudulent manipulation of accounts, especially if

    the accounts of various companies are made up to different dates.

    2) Inter company transactions are often entered at fanciful or unduly low prices

    in order to suit those who control the holding companies.

    3) There is the danger of the oppression of minority shareholders.

    4) There may be accounting difficulties in appraising the financial position of

    companies due to inter-company transactions carried on at too high or too

    low prices.

    5) The shareholders in the holding company may not be aware of the true

    financial position of the subsidiary companies.

    6) Similarly, the creditors and outside shareholders in the subsidiary

    companies may not also aware of the true financial position.

  • 7/28/2019 Overview on the TATA Motors Subsidiaries

    16/52

    7) The subsidiary companies may be forced to appoint persons of the choosing

    of holding companies as directors or other officers at unduly high

    remuneration.

    Whatever the advantages and disadvantages, the holding company has come to

    stay and the law now wisely tries to regulate its working. The law has defined a

    holding company and a subsidiary company. Private companies, subsidiary to a

    public company do not enjoy the privileges given to private companies. Also

    the law compels the holding company to give the information about the

    subsidiary companies.

    Control of the subsidiary companies:

    The most common way that control of a subsidiary is achieved is through the

    ownership of shares in the subsidiary by the parent. These shares give the parent the

    necessary votes to determine the composition of the board of the subsidiary and so

    exercise control. This gives rise to the common presumption that 50%plus one

    share is enough to create a subsidiary. There are, however, other ways that control

    can come about and the exact rules both as to what control is needed and how it is

    achieved can be complex. A subsidiary may itself have subsidiaries, and these, in

    turn, may have subsidiaries of their own. A parent and all its subsidiaries together

    are called a group, although this term can also apply to cooperating companies and

    their subsidiaries with varying degrees of shared ownership.

    In other words, control can be made by:

    (a) The ownership, directly or indirectly through subsidiary (ies), of more than one-

    half of the voting power of an enterprise; or

    (b) Control of the composition of the board of directors in the case of a company or

    of the composition of the corresponding governing body in case of any other

    enterprise so as to obtain economic benefits from its activities.

    A subsidiary is an enterprise that is controlled by another enterprise (known as the

    parent).

    18/52

    Accounting procedure for the subsidiary company:

    The Holding company prepares the Consolidated Financial Statement to record the

    combined transactions

    Consolidated Financial Statement

    The main purpose of the presentation of the consolidated statement of the group of

    holding company and its subsidiaries is to reflect true and fair view of the position

    and the profit or loss of the holding company group as well. The underlying

    principle is that a group constitutes a single business unit even thought he

    subsidiaries maintain the separate legal entity, the affairs of the holding company

    can be viewed correctly as if it is one undertaking from the view point of the

    shareholders of the holding company .

    The individual accounts have also to be prepared to reflect the financial position

    and profit and loss account separately so that the outsiders interest in thesubsidiaries may have information as regards the assets representing their interest in

    the subsidiaries.

    A consolidated balance sheet results from the assets and liabilities of the companies

    constituting the group after eliminating inter-company investments, inter-company

    balances, unrealised inter- company profits on transfers of stocks and on other

    assets held at balance sheet date and after making such other adjustments as are

    necessary to enable the consolidated statement to reflect the financial position of

    the group as evidenced by the balance sheets of the individual companies.

    In India, holding companies are not legally required to publish consolidated

    statements.
