In the 21st century, if you ask any Indian to describe about a business person, I think they would definitely talk about the late Ratan Thata. So Ratan Thata was demised recently in the month of September due to his old age. Ratan Thata was the chief executive officer of the Thata Group of Companies. Thata Group of Companies consisted of Thata Motors, Thata Information Technology, Thata Salt, Thata Energies and many other platforms. There were only very few fields that Thata Group of Companies did not enter. Thata Group of Companies is the major reason for the Indian GDP to grow because they export a lot and bring more foreign income in the country. And now if we see about Ratan Thata as a person, he is a very kind person and he donates approximately 50% of the companies revenue for the good cause. And he is a very gem of a person and he is very kind to even animals and he likes dogs very much. He has a pet dog named Tito which is a German Shepherd breed and he has donated very much to the protection of street dogs and he also introduced dog ambulance to protect the street dogs and to take care of them. He likes to surround himself with youngsters to get new innovative ideas and he also gives generous incentives to his employees who give good development to the company. And I think without Thata, India would not be in this place now and it has played a major role since independence to develop India. And Ratan Thata has died recently and he was single throughout his life and he did not die.

Ratan Tata passed away recently in the month of September due to old age. Ratan Tata was the chief executive officer of the Tata Group of Companies. The Tata Group of Companies consisted of Tata Motors, Tata Information Technology, Tata Salt, Tata Energies, and many other platforms. There were very few fields that the Tata Group of Companies did not enter.

Now, if we talk about Ratan Tata as a person, he was a very kind individual and donated approximately 50% of the company's revenue for good causes. He was a gem of a person, kind even to animals, and he loved dogs very much. He had a pet dog named Tito, which was a German Shepherd, and he donated significantly to the protection of street dogs. He also introduced dog ambulances to care for street dogs. He liked to surround himself with youngsters to get new innovative ideas and provided generous incentives to employees who contributed to the company's development.
