What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Tata Trusts has formally opposed the move toward a public listing of Tata Sons, arguing that such a move would compromise the unique character of the Tata House. This opposition comes as the board of Tata Sons voted to extend Natarajan Chandrasekaran’s tenure as Executive Chairman for another five years. Tata Trusts stated that the company was meant to remain unlisted, a principle established during Ratan Tata’s tenure.
