Stocks of major automakers are expected to trade in line with the broader market, with  market leader Tata Motors Ltd seen trading range-bound next week. The 50-share Nifty and the 30-stock Sensex hit a lifetime high intraday on the back of sustained inflows from  foreign institutional investors amid growing perception towards expectations on general  elections. However, they remain cautious hereon as the rally is likely to pause next week  on profit booking. Market may witness a healthy correction. But it is expected that the  underlying bias will remain positive in the run-up to the elections, and on sustained FII  inflows and signs of improving macroeconomic conditions. 

Among major auto manufacturers, Tata Motors is likely to be range-bound as the global 
wholesale numbers of its subsidiary Jaguar Land Rover are expected to grow at a slower 
rate this time around. The global wholesale numbers of JLR will be declared on Friday 
next week. Tata Motors continues to be driven by the performance of its subsidiary JLR, 
which sold a record 425,000 cars globally during 2013, thereby providing a balm to the 
poor standalone domestic performance of the parent company. JLR contributes a lion's 
share to the company's revenues.
