MUMBAI, Oct 24 - In a sudden and dramatic turn of events, Cyrus Mistry was today sacked as Chairman of India�s largest conglomerate Tata Group and replaced by his predecessor Ratan Tata in the interim, triggering a possible confrontation between the single-largest shareholder and the company�s founding family.
