Tata Motors has invested an additional Rs 120 crore in Freight Commerce Solutions Private Limited — operator of Freight Tiger, which is one of India's leading digital freight platform. This follows an earlier Rs 150 crore investment in October 2023, bringing total funding to Rs 270 crore.
The official release stated that the partnership combines Tata Motors' extensive truck network with Freight Tiger's digital freight platform to deliver enhanced efficiency and transparency across the logistics value chain, creating more intelligent and connected solutions for customers.

The funding comes as artificial intelligence reshapes the freight sector, with companies leveraging technology to improve service quality while reducing costs.
Freight Tiger said it will use the capital to develop AI-powered tools that enhance operational efficiency, generate business intelligence, and automate administrative workflows.
TV Swaminathan, Vice President and Head of Digital Business at Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles, said the investment represents a fundamental reimagining of logistics through AI. "With this investment, we're not just funding technology - we're fundamentally reimagining logistics through artificial
intelligence. Freight Tiger's advanced AI capabilities will create India's first truly integrated logistics ecosystem. This isn't incremental change - it's about building a unified digital backbone that will transform how freight moves across our nation. Our enhanced investment reaffirms Tata Motors’ commitment to not only powering India’s logistics infrastructure, but also shaping its digital future by enabling smarter, more connected, and customer-centric freight operations for businesses and consumers,” he said.
Freight Tiger now serves major Indian corporations across steel, cement, consumer goods, automotive, construction, and e-commerce sectors, including Saint-Gobain, JSW Steel, Asian Paints, Amul, Birla Pivot, Apollo Tyres, and Zepto.
Freight Tiger's founder and CEO Swapnil Shah described the investment as accelerating their AI-powered vision, combining their digital platform with Tata Motors' fleet to create a logistics intelligence network powering India's economic growth.
