Ratan Tata, the chairman Emeritus of Tata Sons has been conferred with Order of Australia (AO) honour, the highest civilian honour of the country. He was honoured for his longstanding commitment to the India Australia bilateral relations.
In March this year, the Government of Australia appointed Ratan Tata as Honorary Officer in the General Division for distinguished service to “the Australia-India bilateral relationship, particularly to trade, investment and philanthropy.”
Ratan Tata joined the Tata Group in 1962 and his first job was to work with the Tata Steel division in Jamshedpur. In 1991, Ratan Tata took over as the chairman of the Tata Group and stepped down in 2012.
In October 2022, Tata received 'Sewa Ratna' from the RSS-affiliated Sewa Bharti for his philanthropic pursuits. He is also a 2008 recipient of India’s second-highest civilian award, the Padma Vibhushan
