The Tata Sons board is set to convene on September 17, with the possibility of discussing Chairman N Chandrasekaran's impending departure at the end of his current term, according to a Moneycontrol report. Chandrasekaran informed on August 12 that he would not seek another five-year term when his tenure expires on February 20, 2027.
Although this matter is not explicitly on the current agenda, directors might raise it during the meeting. The board is also anticipated to finalize a new date for the annual general meeting, which was postponed on August 18 due to insufficient quorum. Routine matters are also expected to be addressed. The future of Chandrasekaran's successor remains unclear, as no director has formally challenged his decision or proposed a vote.
The board comprises Chandrasekaran, Tata Trusts Chairman Noel Tata, Venu Srinivasan, Saurabh Agrawal, Harish Manwani, and Anita M George. The Tata Trusts previously endorsed Chandrasekaran's reappointment in July 2025 and advocated for the company's unlisted status. However, at a February 2026 board meeting, Noel Tata raised concerns about losses and capital allocation, prompting Chandrasekaran to address the issue.
Srinivasan reportedly backed another term, making the upcoming discussion potentially contentious among stakeholders.
