Tata Trusts vs Tata Sons: Let the Tape Speak @business_today
linkedin.com/pulse/tata-trus…
The owner of 66% of @TataCompanies has to write in and ask for the minutes of its own board meeting. The house that paid Docomo $1bn+ on a promise now leads with clauses, not conduct. Check out the latest article in my newsletter: Tata Trusts Row: Why the Board Should Resease the Minutes linkedin.com/pulse/tata-trus… via @LinkedIn @Businessworld
Every Indian Promoter is in a state of shock and having sleepless nights. Huge setback for Sr Management cadre. There is no trust left after @tatatrusts ..
Why Should the Tata Rebels Back Down? m.thewire.in/article/busines…
Tatas are the first or the last .. all successful businesses may get targeted externally or internally. Beware!! Greed across the board has taken over India!!
The Tata episode seems to have created a new anxiety in Indian family businesses.
A very large business group recently called its legal team to check the composition of all its boards- whether independent directors had become too many, and whether something needed to be done.
And this is a problematic trend. We want stronger governance, not fewer independent voices.
If the charity suffers, it will not be “many Indians” who regret it. It will be the biggest blow to the Nation itself: to the hospitals, the research, the scholarships and the relief that millions depend on, and to the very idea that a gift made in trust stays in trust.

youtu.be/_zb9JVSN7I0?si=nJrN… My views on Tata Sons Board decisions 1. Chandra's Appointment is illegal & 2. @RBI has no power to force listing on @sons_tata. Let's not destroy the 100+ years unique legacy of @tatatrusts.

In my opinion: Settle it at Bombay House, not at the Bombay High Court - linkedin.com/pulse/settle-bo… via @LinkedIn @livemint @tatatrusts @TataCompanies
RBI’s shifting rules on listing requirements suggested it was applying the law in a selective manner. No one asks @TataCompanies to put their ownership into one clean structure, and you want to penalise them? when others hide under multiple structures - ft.com/content/bbc9d181-9cce…
