Some foreign investors accuse us of being unfair to shareholders by using our resources for community development.

I came seriously close to getting married four times, and each time I backed off in fear or for one reason or another.

I admire people who are very successful. But if that success has been achieved through too much ruthlessness, then I may admire that person, but I can't respect him.
Ratan Tata
There are many things that, if I have to relive, maybe I will do it another way. But I would not like to look back and think what I have not been able to.
Ratan Tata
We're responsible for the fortunes of the company but this is a bone-dry situation in terms of access to credit. Nobody can operate on that basis unless you have large cash balances, which we don't. My concern is that the government doesn't appear to care about manufacturing.

I followed someone who had very large shoes. He had very large shoes. Mr. J. R. D. Tata. He was a legend in the Indian business community. He had been at the helm of the Tata organization for 50 years. You were almost starting to think he was going to be there forever.
