The recent death of industrialist Ratan Tata shook Indians from all walks of life. This shock showed their love for him. Many confessed to feeling as if a family member had left them. In this light, we try to understand why Ratan Tata mattered to the public and what he stood for.
Why the sadness
For Neeja Shah Goswami, CEO of Whiskers India, Tata showed 'an immense sense of determination, resilience, wisdom, and brilliance'. "He is a legend who will always be remembered for showing the world to do great work that is inclusive, that is keeping in mind the larger vision. That is why there is love and affection for Tata which has been reflected by people from all walks of life on his death." For some, he stands for the respect he brought to his name and work ethic. Amit Malhotra, Founder and CEO of McCoy Mart, reveals, "He has been one of the greatest industrialists ever seen in the Indian market - who not only invested all his heart and soul in ensuring that every Indian experiences 'quality' through TATA products but also donated billions of dollars for several causes in the country or beyond over the last several decades."
He remembers a quote that he read that he feels stands for everything Ratan Tata 'This morning, I woke up and glanced at the time on my Titan watch. I turned off the Voltas air conditioner and made breakfast with TATA Salt while catching up on the news on my TATA Sky. At work, I rely on software supported by Tata Consultancy Services, and tonight, I'll take a TATA Marcopolo bus to catch my Air India flight to Bangalore for a meeting.'
