For the Tata Group, (FY)2026 overall has been a good year in terms of financial metrics, he noted.

“Tata Sons’ revenue grew by 9.1 per cent to Rs 42,367 crore in FY26, while profits (after tax) grew 21.8 per cent to Rs 31,961 crore,” Chandrasekaran said, adding the board of Tata Sons has recommended a final dividend of Rs 1,10,717 per share, subject to shareholders’ approval.

In his letter, Chandrasekaran updated shareholders on the group’s new ventures such as Tata Electronics, Tata Digital, Air India and Agratas, among others, which as per reports, have come under the scanner of Tata Trusts Chairman Noel Tata.
