Tata Trusts governance crisis deepens as former trustee Mehli Mistry challenges his October ouster and seeks court-appointed administrator.

Tata Trusts governance crisis deepens as former trustee Mehli Mistry challenges his October ouster and seeks court-appointed administrator. Mistry filed an affidavit before Maharashtra charity commissioner questioning votes by Venu Srinivasan and Vijay Singh, and challenging chair Noel Tata's objection to reappointing N. Chandrasekaran as Tata Sons chief. The dispute centers on procedural irregularities and conflicting decisions within the trusts that control India's largest conglomerate. Mistry claims a unanimous resolution granting Chandrasekaran a third term was violated when Noel sought a revival roadmap for loss-making businesses. This internal conflict raises questions about governance at Tata Trusts, which oversees substantial philanthropic assets and influences major corporate decisions affecting the broader Tata Group operations and stakeholder interests.
