Spanning over 148 years now, Tata Group is India's largest conglomerate with stakes in more than 100 independent companies, several of which bear the Tata brand and a stunning 660,000 employees: Tata Group is just the consummate example of a truly global brand. But that towering status or glittering reputation has somewhat been tainted in the last few months (at least from when it became apparent to the public) following its internal power struggle that has resulted in the probable dismissal and subsequent replacement of its chairman, the Irish – Indian business man, Cyrus Mistry. All these events have drawn the attention of the public in a bid to reconcile what Tata has been known for and the actual realities in the organization. It was once remarked by Prof. Kulwant Singh of the NUC Business School in Singapore that, " there is a great sense of pride in being a staff member of a Tata company and that follows from the ethical standards that the senior leaders have held themselves to".
