Tata Group’s next chairman will face the difficult task of managing a $300 billion conglomerate amid a leadership crisis and growing differences between Tata Sons and Tata Trusts. N Chandrasekaran’s resignation has created uncertainty over succession, strategy and major investments in semiconductors, EV batteries, e-commerce and Air India. The new leader will also need to address losses in several new businesses while managing Tata Consultancy Services’ changing role as the group’s main cash generator. Experts say restoring alignment between Tata Trusts and Tata Sons, reassuring investors and clearly communicating the group’s future strategy will be among the new chairman’s biggest challenges.
