Ratan Tata, the visionary leader of Tata Group, left behind a legacy of wealth creation and corporate success. Over the past 20 years, several Tata Group stocks delivered significant returns, with Titan Company Ltd providing a staggering 509.33 times return. This growth benefited numerous investors, including the late Rakesh Jhunjhunwala, whose wife, Rekha Jhunjhunwala, currently holds Titan shares worth Rs 16,651 crore.
Under Ratan Tata’s leadership, the group expanded through global acquisitions such as Tetley, Corus, and Jaguar Land Rover, contributing to its $365 billion market valuation by March 2024. Key Tata stocks like Trent Ltd, Voltas Ltd, and Tata Elxsi also yielded high returns, reflecting the group’s ability to create long-term shareholder value.
Industry experts note that Tata’s focus on sustainable growth and philanthropy, with 66% of Tata Sons’ equity held by trusts supporting education, health, and culture, is a testament to his broader impact on society. Ratan Tata stepped down in 2012 but remained Chairman Emeritus of Tata Sons, continuing to inspire through his leadership and vision.
Analysts emphasize the importance of long-term investment in capital markets, a lesson underscored by the Tata Group’s consistent performance over the years.
