This week, Tata Trusts will conduct a significant vote on the reappointment of Venu Srinivasan and Vijay Singh to the Tata Education and Development Trust. Their positions as vice-chairmen are at risk if they do not secure unanimous support from the trustees, particularly from Mehli Mistry, who has previously expressed doubts about their continuation. The vote comes amid rising tensions within Tata Trusts since Noel Tata assumed leadership, with disagreements surfacing over critical issues such as the potential listing of Tata Sons Pvt. Ltd. and the future of Chairman Natarajan Chandrasekaran. Recent statements by Srinivasan and Singh, endorsing a Tata Sons IPO and supporting Chandrasekaran's extension, contrast with earlier positions held by the Trust, highlighting deeper divisions. This vote will be a litmus test for the unity of Tata Trusts and could significantly influence its future direction.
