Mumbai/IBNS: Paytm chief executive office Vijay Shekhar Sharma has deleted his tribute post for late industrialist Ratan Tata facing backlash on social media over one particular line.

After Tata passed away, Sharma took to X to post, "A legend who will inspire every generation. Entrepreneurs of next generation will miss interacting with the most humble businessman of India. Salutes Sir. Ok Tata Bye Bye."

The last sentence has not gone down well with several users.

In a fresh post, Sharma wrote, "RNT for me was the most humbling business leader of India. Future generations of business leaders will miss his generous interactions and kindness. Salutes Sir You will live in our hearts forever."

India's most revered industrialist and philanthropist Ratan Tata passed away at the age of 86 on Wednesday night at Mumbai's Breach Candy Hospital.

The former chairman of Tata Group and a national icon for his august bearing and exemplary business ethics was undergoing treatment at Mumbai's Breach Candy Hospital after his admission there during the day. Following his admission his condition worsened and turned critical.

Ratan Tata's half-brother Noel Tata has been announced as the chairman of Tata Trusts.
