 "Tata Motors Q1 net nearly halves on weak China sales at Rs 2,769 cr")
Quarterly profit at Tata Motors Ltd , India's top automaker by revenue, fell for the fourth consecutive quarter, as sales of its sleek Jaguar saloons and sporty Range Rovers dipped in China, the world's biggest car market.
The economy in China, an important market for Tata Motors' luxury arm Jaguar Land Rover, has slowed to its slackest pace in 25 years and low consumer confidence is affecting car sales in the country.

Net sales fell 6% to Rs 60,180 crore.
