Top leaders from Tata Trust earlier met Amit Shah, Nirmala Sitharaman to resolve governance crisis.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing insiders report a temporary truce within Tata Trusts that underscores Noel Tata’s position at the helm.
  • Home Minister Amit Shah and Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman met Noel Tata, N. Chandrasekaran, Venu Srinivasan, and Darius Khambata in New Delhi to press for stability.
  • The latest flashpoint is a proposed Rs 1,000 crore funding for Tata International, with some trustees alleging procedural lapses and possible Article 121A violations in how the decision was advanced.
  • Board minutes reviewed in reports indicate Tata Sons approved the infusion under Article 121A, noted potential total funding needs of up to Rs 3,000 crore, and set a progress review by September 2026.
  • A four‑trustee bloc—Mehli Mistry, Pramit Jhaveri, Jehangir HC Jehangir, and Darius Khambata—has challenged governance and appointment decisions, after earlier opposing Vijay Singh’s reappointment that preceded his resignation, while a source says Mistry is not seeking a Tata Sons board seat and expects Friday’s meeting to proceed smoothly.
