"I have always been hopeful and I continue to be hopeful and confident that India will re-emerge again as an economic power," Tata said.
He further said: "The issue of transparency and integrity is an important one and I am glad that there is focus given by organisations."
India's economic growth had slumped to a decade's low of five per cent in 2012-13, due to continuing global slowdown and domestic factors like, high interest rates.
