Tata Sons chairman Ratan Tata celebrated the 172nd birth anniversary of Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata at the Tata Steel factory in Jamshedpur

The 172nd birth anniversary of Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata was celebrated at the Tata Steel factory in Jamshedpur, with Tata Sons chairman Ratan N Tata participating in the celebrations organised to honour the multi-billion dollar group's founder.

Tata, along with a host of dignitaries, including Tata Steel managing director HM Nerurkar, former managing directors B Muthuraman and JJ Irani and other officials, paid floral tribute to the founder.

A two-minute silence was observed in remembrance of the 1989 fire incident at the plant, in which several persons watching the Founder's Day celebrations lost their lives.

Tata spent about two hours in the works, watching the tableaux taken out by various divisions of Tata Steel, its associated companies and social organisations.

Later, the chairman interacted with employees of the company, as well as citizens of the 'Steel City'.

On Thursday, Tata Steel ended 1.72% down at Rs623.40 on the Bombay Stock Exchange, while the benchmark Sensex gained 0.23% at 18,489.76.
