Shares of Tata Motors are likely to be in focus on Wednesday after the company announced that shareholders have approved its plan to split into two listed entities, separating its passenger vehicle (PV) and commercial vehicle (CV) businesses.

The restructuring move, first announced in March 2024, aims to unlock value by allowing each business to pursue independent growth strategies. The PV unit includes the luxury Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) brand, while the CV arm focuses on trucks, buses, and other commercial offerings.

According to an exchange filing on Tuesday, the demerger plan was approved by 99.9995% of shareholders, with each receiving equal stakes in the two new listed companies.
