Noel Tata was officially announced as the new Chairman of Tata Trusts on October 11, 2024, after the demise of his half-brother, Ratan Tata. Soon after Noel Tata's appointment, people started searching for him on the internet to find out about the man who would succeed Ratan Tata. From Noel's education details to people searching about his wife, Aloo Mistry and her brother, Cyrus Mistry's feud with Ratan Tata, many stories and angles related to the Tata family are unfolding at the moment.
The late business tycoon and philanthropist, Ratan Tata's father, Naval Hormusji Tata, gave divorce to his first wife, Sooni Tata, due to some personal reasons. After ending his first marriage with Sooni, Naval H. Tata fell in love with a Switzerland-born Indian businesswoman, Simone Tata, and they got married in 1955. The couple welcomed a son and named him Noel Tata. Despite Noel and Ratan's soured family history due to their father, Naval H. Tata's love life, they always had a friendly relationship with each other.
We have repeatedly seen the half-brothers, Noel Tata and Ratan Tata, lauding each other for their respective entrepreneurial decisions. While Ratan never got married, Noel is leading a happy married life with his wife, Aloo Misry. The couple has three children, Leah Tata, Neville Tata, and Maya Tata. Talking about the professions of Noel's three children, Leah plays a vital role in the Indian Hotel Company, Maya serves on Tata Medical Centre Trust's board, and Neville is the man behind Tata Zudio's incredible success.
Since Noel Tata's appointment as the chairman of Tata Trusts, the spotlight immediately shifted to his son, Neville Tata. For the uninitiated, before Noel Tata was officially announced as the successor of Ratan Tata, some industry experts and media reports signalled at the possibility of seeing the former's son, Neville Tata, leading the line at Tata Trusts. As per multiple reports, Neville Tata's remarkable work as the head of Star Bazaar is the reason why there was heavy speculation about him being the heir to Ratan Tata's empire worth Rs. 3,800 crore.
Neville Tata has played a pivotal role in Zudio's success, which continues to get bigger and better with each year's passing. Talking about his personal life, Neville is married to Manasi Kirloskar, who is the daughter of late business tycoon, Vikram Kirloskar. For the unversed, Neville and Manasi got married back in 2019. It was in 2020 when Neville and Manasi embraced parenthood after the latter gave birth to a baby boy, whom they had named Jamshet Tata.

Indian business tycoon, Vikram Kirloskar died due to a heart attack on November 29, 2022. After his untimely demise, his daughter, Manasi Kirloskar was appointed as the chairman of Kirloskar Joint Ventures Private Limited back in November 2022. It was a massive responsibility for Manasi to be appointed to the esteemed position of a 130-year-old conglomerate with a market capitalisation of Rs. 13273 crore. Still, so far, she has been instrumental in leading the conglomerate.
Manasi Kirloskar gets a lot of help and constant guidance from her mother, Geetanjali Kirloskar, who is also a businesswoman. For the uninitiated, Geetanjali is the director of Kirloskar Systems and chairperson of Takshasila Healthcare Research Services and Toyota Tsusho Insurance Broker India.
Manasi Kirloskar was born on August 7, 1990, in Pune. According to reports, she completed her schooling at Mallya Aditi International School in Bengaluru. For graduation, Manasi went to the US and took admission to the Rhode Island School of Design. After completing her higher studies, she came back to India and worked with government schools in three districts of Karnataka.
Manasi Kirloskar also runs an NGO called 'Caring with Colour'. Manasi is an exceptional painter who has been displaying her art pieces at exhibitions since the age of 13. According to a report in Times Now, Manasi is so good at her skills as a painter that she even received praise from the legendary artist, M.F. Husain in the past.
Apart from being an exceptional businesswoman, who leads Toyota Kirloskar Motor and Toyota Kirloskar Auto Parts, Manasi Kirloskar is also renowned for her style quotient. Time and again, we have seen Manasi receive a lot of love and appreciation from the netizens for her fashion quotient. A large section of the internet considers her as one of the most gorgeous businesswomen in India.
Well, much of its credit goes to Manasi's mother, Geetanjali, who never skips a chance to turn heads with her public appearances. Time and again, we have seen the mother-daughter duo, Geetanjali Kirloskar and Manasi Kirloskar, leading the headlines for their cutesy pictures, which the former often posts on her Facebook handle. We hope Manasi continues to lead her family business while helping her husband, Neville Tata, in his own journey with her valuable input.
