Tata Trusts Chairman Noel Tata and his son Neville Tata have filed caveats in the Bombay High Court, sources said on Wednesday. The legal move aims to ensure the court hears their arguments before issuing any orders on the administration of Tata Trusts or the appointment of trustees. By lodging the caveats, the Tatas are seeking to block unilateral court actions that could affect the trust’s governance, underscoring their intent to protect their interests in ongoing trust matters and maintain oversight of trustee decisions.

The procedural filing prevents any orders from being passed without the Tatas' input, ensuring their case is heard on trust administration and trustee appointments.
