(TBB'ers - sorry for the crossposting, but the other thread seems to have degenerated somewhat .....)

A company called Tata has come up on my radar, and, frankly, I know nothing about them.

They have a website at www.tata.com.

Their market cap is shown on http://www.tata.com/0_markets/index.htm, but I can't understand what the figures mean.

What does 'Rs in Lacs' mean?

How can I view the company structure? How can I view the accounts in either $ or ?

What part of the company owns Tata Consulting?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Tata are an old-established Indian conglomerate, more respectable than most. We've had dealings with them, I'll find out more and let you know.
