  • Corneroffice
    16 December 2016 the CornerOffice Tata-Mistry boardroom battle A compilation of key developments The Tata Group, India’s largest conglomerate group, has recently witnessed several differences of opinion among its top management. On October 24, 2016, Tata Sons announced the ouster of Mr Cyrus Mistry as its Chairman (though he remains a director on the board). Non- performance, attempting to gain control, and taking critical decisions without keeping Tata Sons’ board informed were cited as the reasons. On requisition from Tata Sons, various Tata Group companies have called for an EGM to evict Mr Mistry as a director. Institutional investors’ votes are likely to play a decisive role in the outcome of this resolution in some of the companies. We summarize the series of events /relevant information that investors might find handy for their decision making. Tata trusts have significant say in India’s largest group SHP of Tata Sons Ltd. The Tata Group, which includes among others, 26 listed entities accounting for ~7% of the BSE’s total market capitalization, is India’s largest conglomerate group. Tata Sons is the Group’s unlisted holding company. About 66% of Tata Sons’ equity capital is held by philanthropic trusts endowed by members of the Tata family. Tata trusts have the power to appoint one-third of Tata Sons’ directors. Any item that requires approval of Tata Sons’ board needs to be ratified by a majority of its trust- nominated directors. Further, Tata trusts have the power to nominate majority of members on the committee constituted for appointment/removal of the Chairman.
