October 14, 2025, was the record date for the demerger. Shareholders who held Tata Motors stock before that date will receive one share of TMPV and one share of Tata Motors Limited (new name for CV business) share held. The new shares are already credited to investors’ demat accounts, company informed via mails.

Post demerger, TMPV will house the passenger vehicle, electric vehicle, and Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) businesses, while Tata Motors Limited will focus on trucks, buses, and other commercial vehicles.
