U.S. Private equity firm TPG Inc. and Abu Dhabi's ADQ have agreed to invest $1 billion in the passenger electric vehicle business of Tata Motors Ltd.

TPG Rise Climate along with the co-investor shall subscribe to compulsory convertible instruments to secure a 11%-to-15% stake in the electric vehicle business, Tata Motors said in a statement late Tuesday.

The investment values the passenger electric vehicle's business at up to $9.1 billion.

Over the next five years, the business will create a portfolio of 10 electric vehicles and in collaboration with Tata Power, will also establish charging infrastructure to facilitate rapid electric vehicle adoption in India.

"The investment aligns with TPG Rise Climate's focus on decarbonized transport and builds on TPG's long history in India," said Managing Partner of TPG Rise Climate Jim Coulter.

Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan advised Tata Motors on the deal, while BofA advised TPG Rise Climate.
