Tata Group History

The foundation of the TATA group was laid by Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata in 1868,
exactly 100 years before TCS was founded.
 In 1938, JRD Tata was appointed as the chairman who led the TATA Group for next 53
years. During his time, TATA Group expanded regularly into new spheres of business.
The more prominent of these ventures were Tata Chemicals, Tata Motors, Tata Industries,
Voltas, Tata Tea, Tata Consultancy Services and Titan Industries.

In early ninety (1991), Ratan Tata took over as chairman of the TATA Group. Under his
stewardship, Tata tea acquired Tetley, Tata Motors acquired Jaguar Land Rover and Tata
Steel acquired Corus, which have turned the TATA Group from a largely India-centric
company into global business. Ratan Tata retired from all executive responsibility in the
TATA Group in December 2012 and he is succeeded by Cyrus Mistry, the present
Chairman.
