Overview
- A session convened solely to consider Neville Tata’s induction was called off after too few trustees attended, with an official saying it will be rescheduled shortly.
- The Sir Ratan Tata Trust previously held back the proposal following procedural objections reported to have been raised by trustee Venu Srinivasan.
- The Sir Dorabji Tata Trust unanimously approved Neville Tata and Bhaskar Bhat in November for three-year terms beginning November 12, 2025.
- Together, the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and Sir Ratan Tata Trust hold about 66% of Tata Sons, elevating the stakes of any trustee changes.
- The stalled appointment comes after recent internal strains, including Mehli Mistry’s November departure following a public dispute with other trustees.
