New Delhi: Close on the heels of Cyrus Mistry, the ousted chairman of Tata Sons, quitting six Tata group firms, independent director Darius Pandole has resigned from the board of Tata Global Beverages Limited (TGBL).
On Tuesday, Max India chairman Analjit Singh quit as an independent director from the board.
Mr Pandole and Mr Singh were the two directors who had opposed a resolution moved by promoter Tata Sons seeking removal of Mr Mistry as the company's chairman.
"Darius Pandole, non-executive independent director of Tata Global Beverages, has resigned from the board of the company with immediate effect," the company said in a filing to stock exchange BSE on Wednesday.
On November 15, when Mr Mistry was ousted as the chairman of TGBL, two out of the six independent directors on the company - Mr Pandole and Mr Singh - had voted against the resolution moved for Mr Mistry's ouster.
Seven of the 10 directors at the board meeting of Tata Global Beverages (TGBL), which co-owns and runs Starbucks coffee stores across India, voted for removal of Mr Mistry.
