Tata family has no special right, a non-Tata may head the Trusts one day: Ratan Tata

The future chairman of Tata Trusts could be a non-Tata, incumbent head of the trusts Ratan Tata has said in a recent submission to the Supreme Court. "I happen to be the current chairman of these trusts. It could be somebody else, not necessarily with the surname Tata in the future. An individual's life is finite, whereas these organisations will continue," he added. Members of the Tata family have no special rights.
