Cyrus Mistry passed away in a car accident while returning from a visit to Udvada in south Gujarat
Former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry, who died in a car accident, was cremated in Mumbai on Tuesday.
The last rites were performed in an electric crematorium at Worli in central Mumbai.
Mistry, 54, who headed the salt-to-software conglomerate Tata Sons from 2012-16 before an unceremonious exit, and his friend Jahangir Pandole were killed in a road accident in neighbouring Palghar district of Maharashtra on Sunday afternoon.
Mistry was returning from a visit to Udvada in south Gujarat, which is the holiest place for people following the Zoroastrian faith.
His mortal remains, decorated with white flowers, were brought from the J. J. Hospital and kept at the Worli crematorium since Tuesday morning for friends, relatives and well-wishers to pay their last respects.
Members of the Parsi community, business leaders and politicians were among those who attended the cremation.
