In a homecoming moment, Tata Sons is set to acquire debt-laden Air India back with a winning bid of Rs 18,000 crore. In 1998, after Tata’s company made their foray into the passenger car business, the venture seemed to be doomed to failure and they decided to sell it to Ford, but they faced 'humiliation' after being invited to meet Bill Ford. 9 years after the ‘humiliation’ in the US, the clock turned a full circle, when despite a cold response from his friends, Ratan Tata bought Ford's Jaguar Land Rover for $2.3 billion which was then on the verge of bankruptcy. -- Video footage used with permission from Autobest Hall Of Fame -- Music courtesy Song: 'Keys Of Moon - The Epic Hero' is under a creative commons license license. / keysofmoonmusic%e2%80%8b
