A major governance crisis is brewing within the Tata Trusts — the powerful philanthropic institutions that control a majority stake in Tata Sons. A legal challenge questions the validity of “lifetime trustees,” potentially forcing structural changes that could reshape control of the $180bn Tata Group.

Will the Tata Trusts adapt, or does this mark the beginning of deeper turmoil?
