Supreme Court rejects petition by Cyrus Mistry to review judgment in Tata-Mistry case

The Supreme Court has rejected the petition filed by Cyrus Mistry to review the judgment in the Tata-Mistry dispute.

The court mentioned that there were no grounds on which the decision could be reviewed. The Supreme Court had ruled in favour of Tatas in one of the bitterest boardroom battles.

The case pertained to cross-appeals filed by Tata Sons and Cyrus Investments with respect to the restoration of Cyrus Mistry as the executive chairman of Tata Sons by the NCLAT through a December 2019 order.


In this case, well-settled principles were overturned by NCLAT, the Supreme Court had observed while delivering the verdict.

NCLAT's ruling had ordered Mistry's reinstatement as executive chairman of Tata Sons, the over $100 billion salt-to-software comglomerate, as well as as director in three other Tata Group entities.
