Indian industrialist Ratan Tata has left a large chunk of his £91million fortune to his dog in his will, asking that his beloved hound gets “unlimited care” following his death, reports The Daily Mail.
Tata, who is credited with transforming the Tata Group into a globally renowned conglomerate, died at a hospital in Mumbai earlier this month at the age of 86.
As is customary in India, the businessman, who never married or had children, would have left his estate, valued at around £91million, to his siblings.
But, the former chairman of the Tata Group overlooked his brother, Jimmy Tata, and half sisters Shireen and Deanna Jejeebhoy in favor of his beloved German shepherd, Tito.
Tata stated that his pooch, his butler and general assistant, Konar Subbiah and his cook, Rajan Shaw, should each receive a large portion of his fortune, reports The Times. His siblings will only inherit part of his estate.
According to Suhel Seth, a close friend of Tata, the amount which has been left to Tata's former butler and cook, both in their 50s and now taking care of Tito, is generous.
