Amidst a clouded external economic environment, Tata Motors' Group CFO, PB Balaji, has urged for consumption-boosting measures in the forthcoming Union Budget to stimulate demand and boost domestic growth.

Balaji noted that after a positive festive season, demand has waned due to tight liquidity and challenging market conditions. He expressed optimism for a gradual demand improvement supported by government infrastructure investments in the traditionally strong fourth quarter.

In light of Tata Motors' Q3 financial results, which showed a 22% decline in consolidated net profit, Balaji stressed the need for domestic growth strategies to navigate the uncertain global landscape, including potential impacts from international trade policies on electric vehicles.
