Venu Srinivasan, a trustee of Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and Sir Ratan Tata Trust and board member of Tata Sons, has approached the Maharashtra Charity Commissioner seeking an inquiry into the governance structure of Tata Trusts. According to reports, Srinivasan alleged serious governance lapses and questioned the Trusts' direct involvement in Tata Sons, a commercial enterprise holding company. He also contested the appointment and continued status of Noel Tata as a perpetual trustee. The move comes amid Tata Trusts proposing an internal reorganisation to merge Tata Electronics Systems Solutions and Tata Consulting Engineers with Tata Sons.
