Tata Sons Approves Conditional Rs 10,000 Crore Capital Infusion for Air India
Tata Sons' board has approved an in-principle capital infusion exceeding Rs 10,000 crore into Air India, contingent on business cases from Air India and other group companies. This marks one of the largest financial commitments since Tata Group's 2021 acquisition of the airline. The decision, made in a June meeting chaired by N Chandrasekaran, requires majority approval from Tata Trusts' nominee directors for investments above Rs 100 crore. Singapore Airlines' participation in the equity raise remains pending amid Air India's significant losses reported in FY26.
