ACCORDINGTO SINGH, he did notattend the meeting in which thevote took place.“Since Iwasn'tthere,the question of myvoting for or against anyone doesn't arise.

As is common knowledge now, four trustees didvote against my continuance on the Tata Sons board for reasons that were apparently not spelt out,’ he said.

A former defence secretary from the 1970 batch of the IAS, Singh joined Tata Trusts in 2018 on Ratan Tata’s invitation. Singh had served on the Tata Sons board until recently. Although the company’s official website still lists him as a director, he is learnt to have resigned after his reappointment was reportedly blocked by the Mehli Mistry-led group.

Singh was first appointed to the board in 2013 but stepped down in 2018 after reaching the group’s retirement age of 70. He returned to the board in 2022, following Ratan Tata’s decision to make the retirement age more flexible.

Mehli Mistry did not respond to emails and messages seeking comment.
