Tata Trusts Challenges Chandrasekaran's Reappointment Citing Board Procedure Violations
Tata Trusts, holding about 66% of Tata Sons, challenges the reappointment of N Chandrasekaran as chairman, arguing the September 17 board meeting violated the company's Articles of Association. Senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi, representing Tata Trusts, contends that the board lacked quorum due to dissent from nominee director Noel Tata, invalidating the resolution. Singhvi also clarified that Chandrasekaran's reappointment is unrelated to Tata Sons' potential listing, emphasizing procedural breaches in the board's decision-making.
