Tata Motors works with the philosophy of ‘More from Less for More’ which implies striving to achieve scale by judicious utilization of resources, to achieve greater impact. The company adopts human lifecycle approach by offering age continuum CSR programs, which are horizontally linked to each other. CSR is not just a statement but an integral part of our DNA. It feels proud to lead an organization where people live and breed such philosophy.
During the year, the company leveraged technology tools to enhance execution efficiency, deployed mobile applications to track real time performance and encouraged individual entrepreneurs to develop new solutions best suited to meet the local challenges.
