BW Businessworld Celebrates India's Most Valuable CEOs

The latest issue features in-depth profiles of India's top corporate leaders, analyses the potential impact of Trump's political return on Indo-US relations, pays tribute to late Dr Bibek Debroy and more

BW Businessworld, India's premier business magazine has released its annual Most Valuable CEOs issue, offering profound insights into corporate leadership excellence against the backdrop of significant global political developments and domestic changes.

The latest edition navigates through three major themes including the implications of Donald Trump's projected return to the White House for Indo-US relations, a tribute to the late Dr Bibek Debroy and an in-depth analysis of India's most valuable corporate leaders. The assessment of corporate excellence employed rigorous evaluation criteria including total income, turnover and consistency in performance.

The cover story, created in partnership with knowledge partner TechSci Research, presents a meticulously curated selection of India's most exceptional corporate leaders who have demonstrated remarkable resilience and strategic acumen in navigating economic uncertainties. Rather than traditional rankings, the magazine offers detailed profiles of these business leaders, highlighting their approaches to sustainable growth and value creation.

The edition features extensive coverage of the anticipated shifts in Indo-US relations following the projected political transition in the US. The analysis particularly examines how this political shift could reshape bilateral partnerships across defence, energy, and technology sectors, drawing from Trump's previous tenure's focus on expanded trade volumes and regulatory easements that aligned with India's growth trajectory.

On a sombre note, the issue pays tribute to Dr Bibek Debroy, the recently deceased Chairman of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister. Through heartfelt contributions from his mentees and scholarly associates, the edition celebrates Dr Debroy's intellectual legacy, highlighting his multifaceted contributions as a polymath, scholar and former columnist for BW Businessworld.
