Top 10 Most Admired Companies in India
Any guesses?
If you had Infosys Technologies on your mind, you are right!
According to the survey conducted by Wall Street Journal on Top 200 most admired companies in Asia, Infosys Technologies has been named the most Admired company in India.
Here is a run down on the most admired Indian Companies:
Top 10 Most admired companies in India
- Infosys Technologies (Annual Sales of over $4 billion)
- Tata Consultancy Services (largest Indian Outsourcer by Sales)
- Bharti Airtel (In Mergers talks with MTN Group)
- Larsen & Toubro (in deal to build nuclear reactors)
- Wipro (Global workforce of close to 100k)
- Tata Steel (Manufacturing units in 27 countries)
- Hindustan Lever (has more than 400 brands)
- HDFC Bank (Incorporated in 1994)
- State Bank of India (planning to add 1000 branches)
- ITC (Wide-range Conglomerate)
The ranking has broadly taken 5 different aspects into consideration.
- Financial Reputation
- Corporate Reputation
- Quality
- Innovation
- Vision
Following are the individual ranking of various parameters:
Financial Reputation
With the biggest reserves and deposits than any other bank in India, SBI takes the numero Uno position when it comes to Financial Reputation. Reliance Industries, followed by HDFC bank complete the top 3 positions.
Corporate Reputation
Infosys Technologies known for its exemplary Governance and transparency in corporate dealing comes at top followed by 2 Tata companies, TCS and Tata Steel
Quality
Again with excellent quality of Software deliveries, Infosys takes the top position, followed by L&T and Bharti Airtel.
Innovation
Now this is a big surprise to me, TCS takes in the top position in Innovation. I always related TCS as a Volume player without much innovation, but I seem to be completely wrong here.
Infact, TCS is the most admired company for innovation, followed by Bharti Airtel and Infosys Technologies
Vision
With visionaries like Narayan Murthy and Nandan Nilekani at the helm, Infosys Technologies had to take the top position when it comes to vision. Tata Steel surprisingly (at least for me) comes at 2nd followed by Reliance Industries.

Very useful, Thanks!
The best thing about this is that half of the companies are locally owned and MNCs in their own right.
good post……………….
Thanks for the great post about the most admired Indian companies. Your post brought up a lot of interesting points that I haven’t thought about. I’m looking forward to reading a lot more of your site in the future.
Most important is a strong, stable strategy. Companies that change strategies must usually change organizational structures as well… It forces employees to focus inward rather than outward and becomes a giant sink of time and energy. This shows that the structure of an organization is far less important than its strategy. The most admired companies don’t share a common operating model. What they do share is a focus on identifying and developing talent.
