Tata - an Interesting History

I thought this was a good piece and told me several things I never knew about the company that owns JLR not least most of it is owned by charity and the motto of the Tata business empire remains the Zoroastrian creed: Humata Hukhta Hvarshta - which means: good thoughts, good words, good deeds!

I'm struggling with the value - a quick Google pulled up "One crore Rupees is £114,656.82 (As of 30 August 2019)", so if my maths is correct then 1,500 crore is £171,985,230 or just short of £172 million.

I feel sorry for the premiership footballers - they're locked up in their mansions with their trophy wives thinking 'what the hell have I done and how much is a divorce'?
