Dorabji Tata

Jamsetji Tata's elder son placed his shares in Tata Sons, along with his wife's jewels, in the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust shortly before his death in 1932, following his brother Ratan's trust. Together the Tata trusts own about two-thirds of Tata Sons, the group's holding company, and fund hospitals, research institutes and education. Disputes among the trustees in 2025 showed how much influence over the group sits in the trusts' boardrooms.
