                            Tata Steel’s Global CEO and Managing Director, T.V. Narendran, is expected to be appointed to the board of Tata Sons, the holding company of the $150-billion Tata Group, according to a report by The Economic Times.
The development comes amid recent board changes, including the exits of former Jaguar Land Rover CEO Ralf Speth, who stepped down after turning 70, independent director Leo Puri in April, and industrialist Ajay Piramal last month. Narendran, 60, is believed to have recently met Tata Sons chairman N. Chandrasekaran at Bombay House, Mumbai, to discuss the appointment.
Narendran joined Tata Steel in 1988 after earning his MBA from IIM Calcutta and rose through the ranks to become Managing Director in 2013. Under his leadership, Tata Steel expanded its footprint with the acquisition of Bhushan Steel and the scale-up of the Kalinganagar plant. He also chairs Tata Steel Europe, serves on the boards of Tata International and Tata Steel Limited, and currently leads the World Steel Association as chairman for 2024-25.
Recognised as one of India’s top corporate leaders, Narendran has contributed significantly to industry bodies including the Confederation of Indian Industry and the Indian Institute of Metals. A mechanical engineer from NIT Trichy and a distinguished alumnus of IIM Calcutta, he has also received the Chevening Scholarship and attended INSEAD’s Advanced Management Programme in France.
If confirmed, his induction will further strengthen Tata Sons’ leadership bench at a time of evolving governance and strategy.
