Goa — a stray dog who became Ratan Tata’s self-admittedly favourite office companion — was among the hundreds and thousands of visitors who paid their last respects to the late industrialist and philanthropist at NCPA, Nariman Point. Tata’s profound love and empathy for dogs is well-documented. He not only advocated for animal welfare but also instructed the staff at Bombay House, the head office of Tata Group, to allow strays to roam freely, making it the only conglomerate’s headquarters to do so. His struggle to find advanced care for one of his injured dogs led to the birth of Small Animal Hospital Mumbai (SAHM) earlier this year. He also utilised Tata Trust platform to focus on the nutrition needs of newly born and the unborn children as he felt “if we can take care of our children, we will take care of future generations”, according to a former senior official at Tata Trust. “He refurbished and strengthened the Anganwadi so that they could cater to to-be-mothers and lactating mothers because he felt the good nutrition …

I’d heard several stories of the ‘Tata Spirit’, of how they helped the sick, the poor, the unfortunate. Of their humility and humaneness. But I experienced it in 2022 when our lives had changed forever. On December 18, 2014, my 22-year-old son met with a motorbike accident. He was a bright kid who wanted to do his Masters in Economics and later Finance Management. Life was chugging along the path I had expected till his friend, who was learning to ride a motorbike, asked him to sit pillion.
