This is the first time in 18 years that the Tata Sons' chairman has missed TCS annual meeting
Natarajan Chandrasekaran skipped Tata Consultancy Services' annual general meeting on Thursday after staying away from Tata Consumer Products Ltd's shareholder meeting a day earlier, as the Tata Sons chairman battles a crisis following a deadly Air India plane crash last week.
This is the first time in 18 years that Chandrasekaran has missed TCS's shareholder meeting since he was inducted into the board in 2007. He served as the chief executive officer of TCS from 2009 to 2017, when he was picked to take over as the chair of Tata Sons. "The chairman of the board, N. Chandrasekaran, will not be able to attend the meeting due to some exigencies," said Yashaswin Sheth, TCS's company secretary.
