MUMBAI – Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd. has cut its margin guidance for subsidiary Jaguar Land Rover after a cyberattack at its UK plant led to a shutdown in September. JLR's earnings before interest and tax margin for 2025-26 (Apr-Mar) is now seen at 0-2%, lower than the 5-7% margin guided in August. JLR reported an EBIT margin of (-)8.6% in the September quarter and its EBIT margin in FY25 was 8.5%.
