Paying homage to Tata, Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary said, he was not only a great industrialist but also a leading philanthropist of the country.
He made immense contributions in the field of education, healthcare, environment and rural development, he said.
"If you look at the life of Ratan Tata he was not only an iconic Industrialist but also an icon for the youth. His contribution in the development of the nation was also worth noting. Today on this sad day I express my deepest condolences," Chaudhary said.
Ratan Naval Tata, who died at a Mumbai hospital on Wednesday night at the age of 86, was considered one of the world's most influential industrialists.
He enjoyed a perhaps unique status -- a corporate titan who was considered a 'secular living saint' with a reputation for decency and integrity.
