Business Week has a wonderful profile of Ratan Tata, titled The Last Rajah.
It is simply incredible what Tata’s acquisition of Corus and the more recent bid for Jaguar/Land Rover is doing for the image of India, Inc. Reminds me a bit of the time when India defied the international powers and did the first nuclear tests, sending out a message to the world: “Hey, we are adults too!”
The only problem I have with Ratan Tata’s passions is that small car project.
