The list has been published since 2003.As many as 56 Indian companies, including Reliance Industries and State Bank of India, have been named among the world’s 2,000 most powerful listed companies, according to US magazine Forbes.

The ‘Global 2000′ list of the biggest and most powerful companies worldwide has been topped by US banking giant JPMorgan Chase and is followed by General Electric, Bank of America and ExxonMobil.

Among Indian high performers, Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries leads the pack and has been ranked at the 126th place in the global list.

The global rankings span 62 countries, with the US (515 members) and Japan (210 members) dominating the list as usual, although the number of companies from developing nations in the Global 2000 is fast increasing.

This year, the countries that gained the most ground are mainland China (113 members), India (56 members) and Canada (62 members), the magazine said.

Forbes’ ranking of the world’s biggest companies used an equal weighting of sales, profits, assets and market value to rank companies according to size and this year’s list reveals the dynamism of global business.

“In total, the Global 2000 companies now account for USD 30 trillion in revenues, USD 1.4 trillion in profits, USD 124 trillion in assets and USD 31 trillion in market value. All metrics are down from last year, except for market value, which rose 61 per cent,” Forbes said.

Two companies from the Anil Ambani Group, Reliance Communications (742) and Reliance Infrastructure (1,702), have also made it on the list.

Poorna Patel/ Praful Patel IPL Controversy linked with Shashi Tharoor

Posted: 22 Apr 2010 03:36 AM PDT


After the resignation of former Union External Affairs minister Shashi Tharoor, the Indian Premier League (IPL) scam took a new turn on Thursday, April 22, 2010, as some details of mail sent from Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation Praful Patel's office to former Union Minister Shashi Tharoor were leaked to the media. Praful Patel as well as her daughter Poorna Patel's name emerging in this regard.

The association with Praful Patel with the IPL controversy has been brought to light after a leading news source reported that the Civil Aviation Minister's personal secretary had sent an email to Shashi Tharoor which contained documents that featured details of the franchisee valuations of the IPL teams. It has been stated that Praful Patel's personal secretary Champa Bharadwaj had mailed the details to Shashi Tharoor on March 19, which is just two days prior to the opening of the bids for the new IPL teams. At the same time, it has also came to light that the documents were mailed just about two hours after the documents were received by Praful Patel's daughter Poorna Patel, who is known to be the hospitality manager of IPL after it was reportedly mailed her by IPL CEO Sundar Raman. While reacting to the revelations, the IPL CEO has added that he has no clue what made Poorna Patel forward the mail to the Civil Aviation Minister's office.

Meanwhile, Poorna Patel has divulged to the news sources that she forwarded the mails as per the instructions provided to her by Sundar Raman and apart from that, she has no other information in this regard.
