Mumbai: In a major shake-up at the Tata Trusts, Mehli Mistry, a long-time confidant of Ratan Tata, has been removed from the boards of the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and the Sir Ratan Tata Trust. The decision came after three of the six trustees voted against his reappointment. According to reports, Darius Khambata, Pramit Jhaveri, and Jehangir HC Jehangir voted in favour of his continuation, while Noel Tata and two others voted against it.

The vote resulted in a 3–3 tie, which under the Trusts’ rules counts as 'no consensus', meaning the motion fails. As per Tata Trusts regulations, unanimous approval is required for any trustee’s reappointment.
