Noel, Chandra break ice ahead of board meet

May 25, 2026

The chairmen of Tata Trusts and Tata Sons — Noel Tata and N Chandrasekaran—are learnt to have met during the weekend, putting an end to a three-month long communication logjam between the two amid dissonance within Tata Trusts.

- NIVEDITA MOOKERJI

This comes ahead of the next Tata Sons board meeting scheduled for May 26.

The recent interaction, being seen as a courtesy call, was meant to set the agenda for the Tuesday board meeting that will carry on from where the previous Tata Sons board meeting had ended inconclusively on February 24.

There was no official confirmation from Tata Trusts or Tata Sons on a meeting between Noel Tata and N Chandrasekaran.

The chairman of Tata Trusts (which has around 66 per cent shareholding in Tata Sons) had raised questions around the financials of group companies such as Air India, Tata Digital and Tata Electronics at the February meeting. Noel Tata, who's one of the two nominee directors on Tata Sons board, reportedly linked the profitability of several Tata entities to Chandrasekaran getting a third term.
