Tata, along with trustees TVS Motor Corp. chairman emeritus Venu Srinivasan and Mumbai-based lawyer Darius Khambata, met the top ministers at Shah’s residence, the report said. Mint could not ascertain the nature of the meeting, which comes at a time of growing divisions at Tata Trusts. On Monday, The Economic Times reported that the government is stepping in to ease the turbulence, amid concerns that it could hurt the functioning of Tata Sons. Tata Trusts owns 65.9% in Tata Sons, the holding company of the Tata Group, India’s largest conglomerate.
