Former Tata Group chairman, Ratan Tata, undeniably wields significant influence in the nation’s commerce. Yet, in the shadow of this towering figure emerges a noteworthy individual – Neville Tata. His journey through the business world is gaining attention.
So, who is Neville Tata?
Neville Tata transcends the label of a typical businessman. As a direct descendant of the illustrious Tata lineage, he is the son of Noel Naval Tata, a distinguished industrialist and the half-brother of Ratan Tata. Neville, born to Aloo Mistry, the sister of the late Tata Group chief Cyrus Mistry, was raised within the core of the Tata family. Here, he absorbed values that seamlessly blend entrepreneurial spirit with unwavering integrity. Adding to his notable connections, Neville is married to Manasi Kirloskar, herself a scion of a prominent business family.
With lineage running deep within the business families, we have now brought this member of the Tata family to light.
Early Life
Having graduated from the Bayes Business School, Neville Tata set out on a mission to establish his presence in the business arena. In 2016, he became a part of Trent, a company intricately connected to his family – founded by his grandmother Simone Tata and presently led by his father, Noel Tata. Within Trent, Neville assumed the responsibility of managing operations for the Zudio stores, a well-known fashion retail brand with a footprint in west and south India. His strategic foresight and unwavering dedication to excellence have significantly contributed to the growth and success of Zudio under his leadership.
Wedding with Manasi Kirloskar
The story of Neville Tata is intertwined with that of Manasi Kirloskar, the daughter of industrialist Vikram Kirloskar. Their union in 2019 marked the coming together of two influential business dynasties, creating a power couple that has left a significant mark on India’s corporate landscape. Their wedding, though modest in scale, drew attention due to their backgrounds and the presence of Ratan Tata, blessing the couple’s journey.
While Neville was making strides in the world of retail, his wife Manasi Kirloskar was making waves of her own. Her recent appointment as a director in her father’s Kirloskar Empire put her under the spotlight. The couple has a son named Jamshet Tata.
His siblings in the Tata group
Ratan Tata, Noel’s older half-brother, and the chairman of the Tata Trusts both gave their approval for the nominations of Noel Tata’s children. According to a TOI story, Leah is currently employed by Indian Hotels Company (Taj Hotels), Maya by Tata Digital (which recently released the Tata Neu app).
As he continues to lead Zudio’s expansion and contribute to the Tata legacy, the world watches with anticipation.
