MUMBAI, India, Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Dun & Bradstreet, a global leader in business decisioning data and analytics, recognized and felicitated India's top value creators on November 29, 2024 at the 'Dun & Bradstreet's India's Top 500 Value Creators Summit' (List of award winners below). The summit celebrated the companies that have delivered exceptional value to their stakeholders over the past five years.

The prestigious ranking is based on a comprehensive evaluation of over 5,000 listed companies on more than 25 parameters, going beyond traditional financial metrics to consider both market value and intrinsic value. These 500 companies stand out as true leaders in India's corporate landscape, demonstrating consistent growth, innovation, and the ability to create long-term value.
