Tata Group Is India's Most Valuable Brand Says Study

State Bank of India has seen its value drop by (US $ 1.9 billion) as poorer revenue forecasts and bad-loans dampened earnings, it said.

HCL Technologies has seen an increase in brand value of 51 per cent by US $ 649 million as its successful strategy has seen the brand win 50 transformational engagements with contract values of US $ 5 billion in the past year distributed across all service lines and geographies.

"Indian brands have benefitted from the rapid economic growth seen over the past ten years," said Brand Finance's Savio D'Souza.

"Indian brands must take advantage of the improving business sentiment and invest in brand related activities like customer engagement, sponsorships, employee satisfaction and brand tracking to drive the next phase of growth in order for more Indian companies to join the global club of internationally recognised brands," he added.

The average brand value to enterprise value (BV/EV) for India's top 100 brands is 12 per cent. However, some of the largest PSUs have an average ratio of 3 per cent. The BV/EV ratio shows the proportion of a company's value accounted for by the brand.
