I think it could be Zest EV which were doing test rounds quite early this year as per the info I got at that time however we cannot rule out Tigor EV as well. Good for Tata & India both.
Tata Motors: The Story Of Epic Journey
- Thread Starter THE XOVER
- Start date
Found this report. Really a great gesture from Anand Mahindra. But I doubt why M&M is not trying to lower the price and bid for the 40% tender.

Commenting on the strong sales performance, Mr. Girish Wagh, Head – Commercial Vehicle Business Unit, Tata Motors, said, “Business turnaround with focus on the Commercial Business has been on the back of strong product portfolio across segments and intense customer engagement. With a growth of 29% in September 2017 compared to last year, our domestic commercial vehicle sales continued to register robust growth for the third consecutive month. With growing infrastructure development and restrictions on overloading creating demand for high tonnage vehicles, our M&HCV sales witnessed 25% growth in volumes backed by a strong customer acceptance of our SCR technology and the continued ramp up of our BS4 vehicles production. The I&LCV Truck segment grew by 34% over last year supported by introduction of a number of new products including the Ultra range. The Pickup segment registered strong growth of 50% owing to the overwhelming response for the Tata Xenon Yodha, while the SCV cargo witnessed 40% growth with a wide acceptance of the XL range across markets. Our strong performance in Q2 with an average of 25% sales growth is a clear testament of our focused efforts to continuously improve and upgrade our products, while providing our customers with superior value and comfort.”
Commenting on the strong growth momentum in passenger vehicles, Mr. Mayank Pareek, President, Passenger Vehicles Business Unit, Tata Motors, said,” With a growth of 18% in September 2017, we have recorded highest sales since November 2012, backed by our strong portfolio of new generation products like TIAGO, HEXA and TIGOR. Our recently launched lifestyle SUV- NEXON has received an encouraging response across markets and we hope to further expand our addressable market. With the on-going festive season, the consumer sentiment continues to remain positive and are optimistic of maintaining this positive trend with robust growth buoyed by the aspirational values we are offering customers.”

wOW ! Great numbers from the home grown manufacturer ![[clap]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Clap.gif "Clap [clap]")
! Guessing Nexon numbers would be around 3K as starters !
! Guessing Nexon numbers would be around 3K as starters !As per various reports, it is Tigor EV.
M&M knows the deal is not attractive enough for his company at prices quoted by TATA. The prices are 25% less than prevailing prices when considering that batteries will be imported. Unlike TATA, M&M doesn't even have power plants to supplement income from EV charges. Even TATA will be supplying only 250 EV Tigors in 1st phase. It has expressed its inability to supply 500 cars by deadline. It will be interesting to see how the babus recharge and use the EV Tigors.

Just compiled the MoM sales data:
Festive cheer for sure. If they can hold on to these numbers, then it will be incredible and can achieve the target of being profitable in FY 17-18 itself. But if the CV movement is because of heavy discounts, then the story will be different. Hope that is not the case. Eagerly waiting for TML's position for Sep-2017 in the sales chart compared to others in PV sales![[:)]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Smile.gif "Smile [:)]")

Seems like Tata Motors at 5th position for September 2017 , list leading by Maruti -150K, Hyundai -50K, Mahindra -20K (est), Honda -18K, Tata Motors-17.25K and Toyota-12.35K
That's sad. Honda with their W-RV is getting good sales. But TML deserves to be in a better position with the current portfolio![[confused]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Confused.gif "Confused [confused]")
Am sure Nexon will pull required nos for TML which will bring them to no 3 spot however other models do need to sell well for that.
Now Tata got pretty good lineup and the upcoming Q platform products will give them the no 3 spot and profitability.

So it's almost confirmed that it will be the Tigor EV and planning to be produced at Sanand facility. Interesting times ahead.

EESL have now approach M&M to match Tatas price. And If they do so, they will get 40% of the order. To me this seems tobe great move. M&M were the first to introduce Electric vehicles in India and should be part of the pie. Wish M&M take up the offer and take part of the pie. This will be great for both indian giants and country as a whole.
So numbers for tata motors are out:
Nano: 124
Cars 12114
Hexa : 1245
Safari :481
Sumo/Nexon: 3322
Going by average sumo doing at 800 the nexon seems to have got 2500 units. Hopefully the numbers should improve next month.

It's amazing to see M&M MD Pawan Goenka commenting on the EESL tender in such a manner.
They lost the tender first hand. With the particular clause in the tender, they were allowed to supply cars at TML's pricing. They did that and won the tender to supply 150 cars. Then he commented as below:
