Tata, Nooyi among top 25 biz powerhouses: Sify.Com

Tata, Nooyi among top 25 biz powerhouses

New York: India's top corporate leader Ratan Tata has been named by global business magazine Fortune as one of the top 25 most powerful business heads, along with steel tycoon L N Mittal and PepsiCo's Indra Nooyi.

The Fortune ranking closely follows a list by another global business publication Forbes, released earlier this month that named India's richie-rich led by Mittal and Ambanis, but there was no mention of Ratan Tata.

In the Fortune list released on Tuesday, Tata has been named as the world's 23rd most powerful person in business, ahead of CEOs of international media and entertainment giant Walt-Disney and French luxury goods major LVMH.

PepsiCo chief Nooyi, who was named at the top of a separate Fortune list of world's most powerful business women for second year in a row last month, has been ranked at 22nd in the latest list, topped by Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs.

Mittal, largest shareholder and CEO of the world's largest steelmaker ArcelorMittal, is ranked top among the three people of Indian origin. Ranked 14th position in the list, Mittal's name figures ahead of of international giants like JPMorgan Chase, Hewlett-Packard, Boeing, BHP Billiton, Blackstone and Mexican business tycoon Carlos Slim.

Apple's Jobs is followed by media baron Rupert Murdoch (2nd), Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein (3rd), Google's founder-CEO trio Eric Schmidt, Larry Page and Sergei Brin (4th) and legendary investor and Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett (5th).

"Some are empire builders. Others are hired guns. But if they truly have world-class oomph, they're on Fortune's subjective - yet really quite accurate - list of the most powerful business people in the world," the magazine said in its cover story of the latest issue.

Sensex slips 120 pts on global weakness at close: Sify, India

NSE 5698.15 33.55
BSE 19127.73 119.81

As weak global markets dampened the sentiment, the bulls stayed away from the ring right through the session, and, notwithstanding a smart rally staged by a few of their components, the benchmark indices Sensex and Nifty ended in the red today.

While the Sensex, which opened with a negative gap of around 120 points at 19,128.86 and slipped to a low of 19,019.33 in intra-day trades, ended the day with a loss of 119.81 points or 0.62% at 19,127.73, the Nifty closed with a loss of 33.55 points or 0.59% at 5698.15. In intra-day trades today, the Nifty touched a low of 5655.60.

Select auto, realty and information technology stocks had a nice ride up the charts. Capital goods stocks bounced back from their lower levels and regained lost ground in late afternoon trade. Oil, FMCG and healthcare stocks too found support during the closing minutes. Bank and metal stocks had a somewhat sluggish outing. Though a few of them posted smart gains, due to the sharp decline in values of some key stocks in these sectors, the Bankex and Metal indices went down by 0.9% and 1.03% respectively.

Bharti Airtel, which eased by 3.3%, was the biggest loser in the Sensex pack. ICICI Bank ended with a sharp loss of 2.15% despite rallying to Rs 1132.40 from a low of Rs 1119. Reliance Energy, Maruti Suzuki, NTPC, Hindalco and ACC lost 1.5% - 2%. Reliance Industries closed with a loss of 1.4% at Rs 2842. ONGC lost nearly a per cent. Ranbaxy Laboratories, ITC, HDFC Bank, Mahindra & Mahindra and Reliance Communications also ended with sharp losses. HDFC lost around a quarter per cent. Tata Steel, Larsen & Toubro and Infosys Technologies finished with small losses.

BHEL notched up a sharp gain of 2.6%. Bajaj Auto rallied 2.55% to Rs 2653.05. State Bank of India (1.4%), Tata Consultancy Services (1.2%) and Wipro (1.15%) also closed with smart gains.
Tata Motors ended 0.9% up at Rs 716.55. DLF shrugged off a weak start and posted a gain of 0.7%. Ambuja Cements, Grasim Industries and Satyam Computer Services also ended on the positive side, albeit with less pronounced gains. Hindustan Unilever and Cipla ended with slender gains.
