Tata Sons board meets to decide N. Chandrasekaran's reappointment as chairman. Tensions persist with Noel Tata-led Tata Trusts over CapEx, Air India losses and a possible Tata Sons listing — outcomes will shape Tata Group's retail and consumer arms.

Why this matters

Decision follows reports of Rs29,000 cr FY26 losses dragged by Air India and a stalled Tata Sons listing as Noel Tata and trustees clash with executives over RBI's listing mandate.

Leadership signals steady at 87 in the last 90 days.
