Tata Sons Board to Meet September 17 Amid Chairman Succession and AGM Uncertainty
Tata Sons is preparing for a leadership transition after Chairman N Chandrasekaran announced he will not seek a third term ending February 2027. The Sir Dorabji Tata Trust has initiated forming a selection committee to recommend his successor, while the Sir Ratan Tata Trust faces regulatory restrictions preventing trustee meetings, complicating the process. The Tata Sons board is expected to meet on September 17 to discuss Chandrasekaran's exit, set a new AGM date, and address related governance matters amid ongoing trust investigations and shareholder quorum challenges.
