Jaguar, Land Rover Tatas' major client: Group co Barun Jha in London | October 03, 2007 11:38 IST "JLR is one of our most important strategic clients," said David Myers, Chief Financial Officer of INCAT Ltd, a UK-based Tata Technologies company engaged in providing engineering and design services primarily to automotive and aerospace industries. "We have over 200 clients in the UK and JLR is certainly one of the most important among them," Myers told a group of visiting Indian journalists in London. While declining to comment on the intended takeover bid for JLR by Tata Motors [Get Quote], another group company, Myers said the relationship was close to four years old. "We have helped them with designing a software for their portfolio and currently we have a team of about 60 INCAT engineers working at JLR," he added. On Tuesday, Tata group's UK-based subsidiary Tata Ltd Managing Director S A Hasan had said the JLR deal was very much in the offing and the group was quite serious about it. Incidentally, Myers said Tata Motors is also INCAT's biggest customer across the world. Another Tata group company and the biggest IT firm in India, TCS [Get Quote], also shares some of the product offerings from the INCAT stable, Myers said.
