Tata Chemicals closed 5.72 percent higher at Rs 774 after touching an intraday high of 13.5 percent, Tata Investment Corporation closed 5.63 percent higher at Rs 719.25, and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles rose 4.52 percent to Rs 314.65, all after the board approved a fresh five-year term for Chairman N Chandrasekaran and cleared the company&#8217;s long-pending listing proposal. These moves reflect a genuine, verified market reaction rather than an analyst price target.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A single boardroom decision moved an entire group of stocks on Thursday, and the scale of that reaction is worth understanding before treating any of these names as a straightforward buy today.<\/p>\n<p>Here is what happened and which Tata group stocks moved the most.<\/p>\n<p
