Jimmy Tata is the younger brother of Ratan Tata who lives a simple life in Mumbai’s two-bedroom apartment in Colaba.

Despite being part of one of India’s famous business families, he is not involved in these corporate affairs. He prefers to stay away from the stress of running businesses. He doesn’t use a mobile phone nor he is on social media, and rarely steps out of his apartment.

Jimmy Tata’s Property

He owns stakes in Tata Sons and several other companies of the Tata Group like Tata Motors, Tata Steel, TCS, Tata Power, Indian Hotels, and Tata Chemicals. He is also a trustee of the Sir Ratan Tata Trust since 1989 after the death of their father, Naval Tata.

At 83 years old, Jimmy Tata is very calm. He could have held any big position within the Tata Group. But he chose to be away from the limelight. He likes reading books and newspapers over using mobile phone.

Bond With Ratan Tata

Jimmy Tata shared a close bond with his elder brother, Ratan Tata. Last year, Ratan Tata shared a black-and-white photo with his brother and wrote, “Those were happy days. Nothing came between us.” 

Even RPG Enterprises Chairman Harsh Goenka had shared one memory on social media which highlighted Jimmy’s lifestyle wherein he also mentioned that Jimmy is an excellent squash player.
