Ratan Tata, who started his career with the Tata Group in 1962, will however continue to be on the board of the group companies and subsidiaries till his retirement. Cyrus Pallonji Mistry, on the other hand, is the youngest son of construction magnate Pallonji Mistry. He will be taking charge of the salt-to-software conglomerate, after leading the construction-oriented $2.5 billion giant, the Shapoorji Pallonji Group, as Managing Director.
