Today marks a pivotal moment for Tata Motors shareholders, as October 13, 2025, is the last trading session before the company’s long-awaited demerger. The restructuring move will split Tata Motors into two distinct entities—Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd. and Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles Ltd.—with the record date for entitlement set for October 14, 2025. Investors holding shares at the close of today’s session will be eligible to receive one share of the demerged entity for every one share held.
The demerger, effective from October 1, is part of Tata Motors’ strategic roadmap to unlock value, streamline operations, and provide focused growth opportunities across its core verticals. The move has already impacted the stock’s performance, with shares trading lower over the past week amid investor repositioning and price discovery adjustments.
