Singhvi to Represent Tata Trusts in Dispute with Tata Sons

Senior advocate Abhishek Manu Singhvi has been hired by Tata Trusts to represent it in its escalating dispute with Tata Sons over Chairman N Chandrasekaran's reappointment and a proposed public listing. Singhvi said he enters the fray with "sadness and regret" that the issues could not be resolved amicably, warning that stultifying shareholder-ownership rights would spell doomsday for corporate governance.
