People will talk about his different contribution to economy and philanthropy. However, my favorite is the story where he instructed his hotel employees to treat stray dogs well if they enter the premises. For a man of his wealth and power, to care about a stray dog truly speaks to his humble nature. RIP Sir, you were a crown jewel of the post independence India.

As someone who stays far from politics, ratan tata and tata group in particular are the extraordinary entities who do opposite of enshitification.

They dont cut corners (like everyone) and are highly regarded as being genuinely good.

Case in point. From a tax perspective, historically reliance indistries was always known for being sneaky around taxes, dodging taxes, finding loopholes and such.

Tata OTOH, they are historically regarded as being much more honest and trustworthy in this regard.
