Mr. Ratan Tata received a number of prestigious awards, honors and recognitions for his professional excellence, besides coveted decoration of Padma Bhushan.

The natives with economic profession are backbone of any society and are indicators of its prosperity and well being. They include industrialists, chartered accountants, businessmen, traders, dealers, merchants, manufacturers, publishers, bankers, etc. Such natives have strong 2nd, 7th and 10th as primary houses with 5th, 9th, and 11th as secondary houses. For success in such professions the significator planets are Sun, Moon, Mercury and Dhankarakas Jupiter and Venus. Such native should have strong yogas for wealth, name and fame. For the convenience of my dearest readers, I would first furnish a glimpse of the basic requirements for success in industrial enterprises followed by analysis of the birth chart of this famous nativity. 

INDUSTRIALISTS 

Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth, is said to reside in Industries. Therefore, for success in industry, the Lakshmisthans, which are trine houses in a horoscope, should be strong and well related with houses of wealth and gains (2nd & 11th). 5th and 9th houses represent wisdom and luck, if these two houses are related with Lagna (self) and house of Karma (10th) gives excellent success to industrialists.

Moreover, industrialists primarily deal with machines, workforce, latest techniques, money and luck. The significator planets for industries are Saturn, Mars and Rahu and they should be well placed with reference to Ascendant, Ascendant Lord, 10th house and its lord. Specific planets are allocated to specific industries.

In the Horoscope of Mr. Ratan Tata, the Ascendant is Sagittarius, the mooltrikona sign of Jupiter who is the natural significator of name, fame and wealth and is posited in 2nd house, which is the house of status and family. The Jupiter is placed in Capricorn ruled by Saturn (2nd & 3rd lord), which is the sign of debilitation for Jupiter. The horoscope has the following very strong auspicious Yogas for name, fame, wealth and status.

Further, the Dhan Yoga is confirmed with aspect of 5th lord Mars on the 9th and 10th houses (the houses of luck, fortune and profession) coupled with aspect of 2nd and 3rd lord Saturn on 10th house and Ascendant which is tenanted by Sun (9th lord), Mercury (10th lord/MT) and Venus (11th lord/MT). The above aspect of 2nd and 3rd lord Saturn has, therefore, formed a linear equation of status and wealth with fortune, profession and attainment of the same through honest effort.   

ANALYSIS OF DASAMASA CHART FOR PROFESSIONAL AFFLUENCE (ADCPA)

In Dasamasa, 9th lord Sun is exalted in 5th house and 10th house continues to be Virgo aspected by 2nd & 3rd lord Saturn from Lagna. Moreover, Dasamasa Lagna is Vargottama adding extra flavour and strength to professional matter.  

A native with such types of strong benefic yogas takes birth only with the Blessings of Almighty God on the basis of the hugely performed selfless outstanding deeds by the soul of the native in the previous births. This is defined as Karma according to Hindu mythology and our luck and fortune in the present life is destined by Almighty God on the basis of our Karmas (the near equivalent English rendering of which could be providing selfless service to all the living beings and keeping oneself aloof from any form of cruelty and greed).  Even bringing cruelty and greed in our minds without spelling out the same through our actions also tantamount to bad deeds in the Holy Court of Almighty God.
