He was born into a family with a rich heritage. His maternal grandfather was MA Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan.
After completing his studies, he came back to Mumbai where he started working as an apprentice to his father.
He was very close to JRD Tata and was considered to be his godson.
He attained his schooling from England. However, in an interview, he revealed that he hated going to schools in his childhood.
His group of companies includes some big names like Britannia Industries, Bombay Dyeing, and the airline GoAir.
He was appointed on the Prime Minister's Council on Trade and Industry in 1998, 1999, and 2000.
In 2004, he visited Pakistan with his mother and family and also went to the mausoleum of his grandfather Muhammad Ali Jinnah.
In 1971, his father was thinking to sell Bombay Dyeing and moving out of the country but Nusli convinced him to stay in India and not to sell the company.
In 2016, he had a battle against the Tata Group and his former friend Ratan Tata who got him ousted from the board of three Tata firms. Nusli said that their differences were due to Nano draining the funds.
