Ratan Tata is being succeeded by his half-brother Noel Tata. After his parents - Naval Tata and Soonoo Commissariat - got divorced when Ratan Tata and his younger brother Jimmy were very young. Years later their father got remarried to Simone Dunoyer, and the two had a son Noel.
Tatas, a brand that has for more than 150 years instilled a feeling of trust and reassurance, has always seen a line of succession where the people at the helm have set the very highest standards and ethics in the world of business. Their personalities cannot be separated from what the brand has evolved into.
Founded in 1868, Tatas have become one of largest and most diverse global conglomerates. It is a name heard in almost every home in India and tens of millions overseas.
Ratan Tata, the kind and graceful gentleman-industrialist and philanthropist, who is credited with taking brand Tata to over 100 countries under his leadership, died at a hospital in Mumbai earlier this week. His stewardship of the Tata behemoth has left a void that few can fill, or not - only time will tell.
