During his momentous tenure, Ratan Tata transformed the Tata Group from a collection of disparate companies into a unified powerhouse. Today, it is one of the world’s largest business conglomerates and is greatly admired for its compassionate capitalism and trusteeship model of holding wealth.

Dr. Mathew’s comprehensive account of Ratan Tata’s life includes unknown details and fascinating stories from his formative years, the time he spent in America as a student, his return to India and his early tenure with the Tata Group. It leads up to the inspiring and engaging documentation of Mr Tata’s business strategies, leadership vision and personal integrity that have shaped the Group.

With inputs from a variety of interviewees – from the likes of former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to Karuna, the janitor at GT Hospital, Mumbai – this is the only comprehensive, definitive and authorized account of Mr Tata’s life and times, his struggles and his important contributions to contemporary India. What emerges is the story of a private individual, a great industrialist and a remarkable leader who steadfastly believes, above all, in the values that he inherited, and who spent his life in the service of his fellow humans and a fledgling nation.

Speaking on the acquisition,

Ananth Padmanabhan, Chief Executive Officer of HarperCollins India, said: ‘We are absolutely delighted to be publishing the authorized biography of Mr Ratan Tata. It’s a remarkable book on the life of an inspirational, influential and transformative personality, someone whose words and actions have changed the world around us. With unprecedented access to Mr Tata’s personal and professional life, Dr. Mathew paints a fascinating portrait of a man whose unwavering resolve to do the right thing has transformed many facets of independent India, more than any other individual or organization has. We can’t wait to publish the book in multiple formats and languages, across geographies. The publication of this book will be a global publishing event of significance!’

Udayan Mitra, Executive Publisher, HarperCollins India, added: ‘I grew up trusting in the Tatas, as I suspect generations before mine did, and as future generations will.

And behind the Tata brand that we all know is the vision of one incredible individual. Dr. Mathew’s wonderful, comprehensive biography explores the professional and private life of Ratan Tata, a man everyone respects but wouldn’t fully know if it weren’t for this book. And it celebrates his legacy: a legacy that every Indian can be truly proud of. It’s a matter of great personal pride and privilege for me to be associated with this remarkable biography, and to be able to bring this definitive and inspiring story to readers. This is quite simply the most important biography to be published in independent India.’

Arabella Pike, Publishing Director, William Collins, said: ‘We could not be more thrilled and proud to be working with Mr Ratan Tata and Dr. Thomas Mathew, and with HarperCollins India, on what I know will be a fascinating book. I look forward to publishing the definitive biography of Ratan Tata under one of the oldest and most respected publishing imprints in the world – William Collins – and helping readers throughout the UK and Europe, Australia and New Zealand discover the true story of Mr Tata’s extraordinary life and his many achievements in the industry, business and philanthropy.’

Jamie Lockard, Vice President and Publisher, Harper Leadership, said: ‘HarperCollins Leadership is excited for the opportunity to share Mr Tata’s story of his remarkable career across many continents, businesses and people with readers in the US. His rich history and the indelible lessons of leadership, innovation, brand-building, and cultivating passionate associates and consumers are central to what we do best.’

The author of the book, Dr. Thomas Mathew, added: ‘Over the last four decades, I have had the opportunity to closely observe and interact with the Indian corporate ecosystem and in the later years with Mr Ratan Tata and the Tata Group, in particular. So, when I got the opportunity to write the story of the man whose name instantly evokes intense admiration, bordering on adulation, among people across the world, I had no doubt that it would be far and away an exciting yet daunting task.

‘As part of the research, I benefitted from unprecedented access to the records of the conglomerate, the trusts that control it as well as Mr Tata’s personal documents, letters and journals. I also enjoyed virtually unfettered access to Mr Tata himself, who narrated his life story in a tell-all fashion. The research also took me across continents following Ratan Tata’s journey, interviewing those who were involved in it, those who influenced him and those whose lives he had touched.

‘My literary agent, Anish Chandy, has done a creditable job of putting together this global publishing deal by selecting HarperCollins.

‘I hope readers find the extraordinary and inspiring life journey of Mr Tata as gripping as I did while putting this book together.’

Purchase options and add-ons

The first and only authorized biography on Tata Group including the Tata-Mistry legal battle, exclusive interviews with Ratan Tata, and never-before-seen photographs of the Tata family. In 1868, Jamsetji Tata, a visionary of his time, lit the flame that went on to become Tata and its group of companies. This business grew into an extraordinary one. One that some may even call 'the greatest company in the world'. Over the decades, the business expanded and prospered under the leadership of the various keepers of the flame, such as Sir Dorabji Tata, J.R.D. Tata and Ratan Tata, to name a few. But one day, the headlines boldly declared that the chairman of the board of Tata Sons, Cyrus Mistry, had been fired. What went wrong? In this exclusive and authorized book, insiders of the Tata businesses open up to Peter Casey for the first time to tell the story. From its humble beginnings as a mercantile company to its growth as a successful yet philanthropic organization to its recent brush with Mistry, this is a book that every business- minded individual must read.
