Tata Trusts rejects Tata Sons' reappointment of Chandrasekaran

Tata Trusts declared the Tata Sons Board's resolution to reappoint N. Chandrasekaran as chairman void ab initio, citing lack of affirmative support from nominee directors.

The Trusts stated that the Articles of Association require affirmative support from Tata Trusts Nominee Directors, and the chairman's casting vote does not apply among them.

Tata Trusts asserted that the condition failed and the resolution did not pass, despite claims from the board that the refusal created a deadlock.
