Former Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud's legal opinion concludes that the reappointment of N Chandrasekaran as Tata Sons chairman is invalid because the affirmative voting rights of Tata Trusts' nominee directors cannot be overridden by a chairman's casting vote. The opinion, reviewed by Moneycontrol, states that a new term amounts to a fresh chairmanship. Tata Sons disputes this, saying the reappointment was valid and passed by majority vote.
