Business Standard
|October 23, 2025
A day before industrialist Venu Srinivasan’s (pictured) three-year term as a trustee at Sir Dorabji Tata Trust was to end, his renewal has been approved.
While a few trustees had sent their approvals in the past two days, the remaining responded Wednesday morning in a unanimous decision to renew his term, paving the way for Srinivasan’s life trusteeship at SDTT.
Srinivasan, whose current term at SDTT is till October 23, 2025, is being reappointed as a life trustee, sources said. Another key renewal—that of Mehli Mistry — is about to come up this week. Mistry’s term at both Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and Sir Ratan Tata Trust — two core trusts with a majority holding in Tata Sons — is coming to an end on October 28, 2025.
