-7 percent of Monday compared to 10 % earlier, between uncertainty in the global automotive sector as US thesis.The shares of the Indian parent of the Tata Motors company collapsed up to 5.2 percent in the first exchanges after the announcement.

The provision of the revised Ebit margin is also less than the margin of 8.5 percent JLR for the previous tax year closed on March 31st.

JLR added that he sees a free cash flow of almost zero in the tax year 2026.

The company, which derives in the quarter of its sales from the United States, had temporarily paused the shipments to the country after President Donald Trump slapped 25 % on all foreign manufacture vehicles sold in the second largest car market in the world.

The producer of vehicles for the sporting utility of the “defender” said that it is reassigning the units available in the “accessible markets”, to increase profits.He added that he continues to commit himself to both the United States and the United Kingdom governments regarding a commercial agreement signed in May, which allows the United Kingdom to export 100,000 cars per year to the United States with a 10 % rate, below the withdrawal of 25 % for other nations.

While JLR’s “Range Rover” SUV range is produced in the United Kingdom, the popular “defender” is made in Slovakia, a member of the European Union, which does not yet have a commercial pact with the Trump administration.

The car manufacturer said that it is evaluating prices in the United States to help compensate the tariff impact.

Analysts said that JLR could be less influenced by the increases in the costs associated with rates, thanks to a richer customer base that is unlikely that it is discouraged by a greater price.However, Tata Motors remains among the Indian car manufacturers most exposed to US duties, since JLR does not have local production in the country, unlike most of his rivals, including the German brands Mercedes-Benz and BMW.
