Ratan Tata was born in 1937 in a traditional family of Parsis - a highly educated and prosperous community that traces its ancestry to Zoroastrian refugees in India .

The tycoon led the Tata Group - a conglomerate of more than 100 companies - for more than two decades .

The 155-year-old Tata Group straddles a business empire ranging from Jaguar Land Rover and Tata Steel to aviation and salt pans.

Tata pledged to look after the families of employees who were killed or injured, and paid the relatives of those killed the salaries they would have earned for the rest of their lives.

He also spent more than $1bn to restore the damaged hotel within 21 months .

Peter Casey described Tata as a "modest, reserved and even shy man".
