A south Mumbai low-profile boy, 44-year-old Mistry family scion was already heading companies in the Shapoorji Pallonji Group when he was appointed to succeed Ratan Tata as the head of the over USD 100 billion, salt-to-software Tata group. According to reports, he was reluctant to take up the job but some persuasion, including by Ratan Tata himself, led him to accept the offer. After four years at the helm, he was replaced in a boardroom coup in October 2016, which saw Ratan Tata coming back to helm the group before the reigns were passed on to N Chandrasekhar. The might of his father Pallonji Shapoorji Mistry who was called as the 'Phantom of Bombay House' for the influence he wielded at the Tata Group headquarters, did not come in handy to help Mistry, who had begun on a wide-ranging drive to improve governance practices at the group.
