Trusteeship Renewal Dispute At Tata
- The non-renewal decision was made after three out of five trustees voted against extending the term.
- The dispute reportedly arises from internal differences among trustees over leadership roles and reappointments within Tata Trusts.
- The caveat refers to a communication dated October 17, 2024, which allegedly states that all trustees should be reappointed as permanent members once their current terms expire.
Charity Commissioner Will Examine Caveat Files By Mehli Mistry
The drama surrounding the trustees of Tata Trusts is far from over! Reports indicate that the Charity Commissioner, who oversees all charitable trusts in Maharashtra under the Public Trusts Act, 1950, will step in to investigate the issue.
Tata Trusts has a period of 90 days to report to the Commissioner’s office about any modifications in the list of trustees. With the caveat filed, the quasi-judicial authority is likely to hear Mehli Mistry’s case before making a final ruling. The question now is how the Commissioner will handle this high-profile tussle.
First Board Meeting Of Tata After The Exit Scheduled

- Mistry’s term reportedly ended without a formal reappointment.
- No official communication about his exit has been shared with other trustees so far.
- The upcoming meeting is expected to be closely watched, given the growing tensions and ongoing trusteeship dispute.
