Tata Motors addresses potential rare earth supply challenges, reassuring that current export restrictions by China have not necessitated any immediate production adjustments or emergency measures.

Tata Motors is actively seeking alternative sources for rare earth magnets in response to export restrictions imposed by China. Despite the limitations, the Indian carmaker remains confident and has not yet seen any need to initiate emergency measures to combat the supply issue.

At a recent event in Mumbai, CFO PB Balaji assured stakeholders by stating, 'Currently, I think there's no panic because we believe the supplies are coming through. There's no production curtailment. Nothing is being planned at this point in time.'
