Bench headed by Chief Justice of India SA Bobde assembles.
Hearing commences.
@tatatrusts @TataCompanies
CJI SA Bobde announces that over the weekend he discovered his son who is practicing in Mumbai has been appearing for the last 2 years in a slum rehabilitation matter for a subsidiary company of Shapoorji Pallonji group.
@tatatrusts
CJI asks whether Harish Salve, Dr Singhvi or CA Sundaram has any objections to CJI hearing the matter.
None of them object. The same is recorded by the Court.
Hearing continues.
#SupremeCourt
CJI says such issues could cause potential problems in future.
Sundaram continues with his arguments.
@tatatrusts @TataCompanies
Sundaram citing Articles of Tata Sons to show the supremacy of the Board.
Article 121A was introduced to ensure that certain matters had to necessarily have Board approval.
#SupremeCourt #TataSons
SP group also voted in favour of A 121 due to the relationship of trust they had with Tata Sons.
SP group could not have conceived that the article would be used against them: Sundaram.

Discussion on interest that Ratan Tata had in Ola/ Uber
Sundaram says he had a personal interest in Ola
CJI Bobde: Does it mean he had business interest
Dr. Singhvi says he wanted to have Tata cars used in Ola and Uber and not just Ola as suggested by Mistry
CJI Bobde: Mr. Sundaram, you must bear in mind that this is a private company. Our experience with such companies is that they have heads of families controlling, giving directions etc. Birlas, Tata all have such structures.
Your SP Group might also have it.
CJI Bobde: What is wrong in head of family wanting information or wanting to control decisions.
@tatatrusts
@TataCompanies
Sundaram: This company owns many listed companies running to 65 lakh crores with public shareholders. So there should be some kind of independence in decision making.
If they wanted to keep a family affair, they should have remained so instead of making it public
A public charitable trust cannot legally run such companies. That is why it needs it be "board run": CA Sundaram.
@tatatrusts @TataCompanies
#SupremeCourt
They cannot use the Articles to claim that they have absolute right over affairs of the company: CA Sundaram
Bench rises. Hearing to continue tomorrow.

I'm going to do two history threads on Ethiopia, one on its ancient history, one on its modern story (1800 to today). 🇪🇹
I'll begin with the ancient history ... and it goes way back. Because modern humans - and before that, the ancestors of humans - almost certainly originated in Ethiopia. 🇪🇹 (sub-thread):
The first likely historical reference to Ethiopia is ancient Egyptian records of trade expeditions to the "Land of Punt" in search of gold, ebony, ivory, incense, and wild animals, starting in c 2500 BC 🇪🇹
Ethiopians themselves believe that the Queen of Sheba, who visited Israel's King Solomon in the Bible (c 950 BC), came from Ethiopia (not Yemen, as others believe). Here she is meeting Solomon in a stain-glassed window in Addis Ababa's Holy Trinity Church. 🇪🇹
References to the Queen of Sheba are everywhere in Ethiopia. The national airline's frequent flier miles are even called "ShebaMiles". 🇪🇹
