Tata Electronics Pvt. Ltd., established in 2020 as a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Sons, recorded impressive revenue of ₹66,601 crore in FY25, reinforcing its role as a quickly emerging leader in the group’s new-age businesses. While it posted a modest loss of ₹70 crore, analysts view this as an expected outcome in its early capital-intensive growth phase
🔍 Strategic Growth Drivers
- Major Acquisitions
Tata Electronics expanded through strategic acquisitions, including Wistron Infocomm India in FY24 and a 60% stake in Pegatron India in FY25, contributing significantly to top-line growth and manufacturing capability - Scale & Workforce
The company now employs over 65,000 people, of which roughly 70% are women, supporting its goal of building a vertically integrated electronics ecosystem in India - Semiconductor Manufacturing Push
Operating domestic iPhone assembly plants in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Tata Electronics is also establishing a ₹91,000 crore chip fab at Dholera (28nm node) with PSMC, expected online by 2026
Tata Group Impact
- Tata Electronics was among the top revenue contributors within new Tata ventures—alongside Air India (₹78,636 crore) and Tata Digital (₹32,188 crore)—and helped lift the group’s total revenue to ~₹15.34 lakh crore in FY25
- Despite revenues from new-unlisted units totaling nearly ₹1.8 lakh crore, the group suffered combined losses of ₹15,500 crore—Tata Electronics’ ₹70 crore loss being minor compared to Air India and Tata Digital
