Article on Ratan Tata

Ratan Tata lives alone with two German shepherds in a modest apartment a floor below his stepmother in central Mumbai, formerly called Bombay. The 69-year-old still goes to the office every day and, though he owns a collection of Western luxury cars and has a pilot's license, shuns ostentation. Tata has a reputation to defend as a living legend in the business world, shrouded in an aura of humility that borders on self-denial.
