On June 8, Chery Group issued an official statement via its WeChat account to refute misleading reports about its cooperation with India’s Tata Group. The company noted that while it appreciates media interest, many recent interpretations of foreign media reports have contained inaccurate information, prompting the clarification.

The statement explicitly states that the ongoing discussions between Chery and Tata are limited to the supply of automotive knock-down kits. There are no plans for direct investment in India or technology transfer of any kind. Claims by some media outlets about "platform transfer", "technology licensing", or "technology export" are entirely inconsistent with the actual content of the negotiations.
