The Tata brand is deeply ingrained in the fabric of India and is by far the most global Indian brand. The brand spans IT services, Steel, Automotive, Consumer & Retail, Infrastructure, Financial Services, Aerospace & Defence, Tourism & Travel and Telecoms & Media", Brand Finance said.
Most of the group's value stems from its IT services subsidiary, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) which has grown by 11 per cent in value this year to $14.9 billion on the back of increased demand for its core transformation services, according to the Brand Finance IT Services 25 2021 report. The group has been busy transforming its sprawling group of companies as it responds to pressures at home and abroad. Domestically the group is poised to capture growth from rising consumer incomes and urbanisation by leveraging the strong and trusted Tata brand.
The recently restructured consumer products subsidiary, Tata Consumer Products which has performed admirably in the past 12 months is a prime example. The group has ambitious plans in ecommerce with plans for a super app to stitch together its offering across its different consumer brands.
