The Founder of Tata group, Jamsetji Tata, made history by buying India’s first car

Jamshed Tata holds the distinction of being the pioneer among Indian citizens to purchase an automobile, acquiring a Tata car in 1898. This significant moment marked the inception of private car ownership in India. While a British individual, The Crompton Greaves Bus, possessed a car in India in 1897, Jamshed Tata’s acquisition in the subsequent year underscored the beginning of a new era. Notably, Jamshed Tata, revered as the founder of the Tata Group, played a pivotal role in shaping India’s industrial landscape.
