Is Noel Tata eligible to lead Tata Sons following Chandrasekaran's departure?
Noel Tata, the Chairman of Tata Trusts, is barred from holding the top position at Tata Sons while simultaneously leading the Trusts. The updated Articles of Association for Tata Sons explicitly state that anyone serving as chairman of the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust or the Sir Ratan Tata Trust is disqualified from chairing Tata Sons. Meanwhile, N Chandrasekaran has announced that he will not pursue another term as the head of Tata Sons once his current tenure concludes next year.
