In 1903 A.D. Mr. Jamshed Numerwanji Tata opened the Taj Mahal hotel in Bombay with an authorized capital of Rs.50 Lakhs. The Idea was born as long ago as 1888 when a friend of his ironically remarked that Bombay could not have a single decent hotel. A French architect of the building came back after the completion, to see every details of the construction. With one small exception it was located back to front; he was so disappointed and overlooking the gateway of India, it was until recently the largest hotels in the east. Mr. Tata who was a great industrialist and built an up to date hotel was essential for advancement of Bombay city and INdia as a whole.
