IndianOil tops 'BS 1000' companies in Sales again
 IndianOil has been ranked as India's biggest company by Business Standard in the ranking declared in their December 2006 issue of the magazine. It is ahead of the number two company by quite a distance.
In its latest 'BS 1000' list of India's corporate giants, IndianOil is the number one company "with consolidated net sales of Rs. 162,418 crore." IndianOil ranked fourth in net profit, second in assets ranking, and eleventh in market capitalization.
Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) is the only Indian company with net sales of over Rs. 1,00,000 crore for six years in a row. IndianOil remains the biggest Indian company; not surprising considering its 147th position in Fortune 500 and that it is the 18th largest petroleum company in the world.
Apart from sales, the 'BS 1000' ranking lists companies based on operating profit, cash profit, dividend per share, assets, net worth and market capitalization, etc. Come rain or shine, the public sector companies continue to dominate the top ranks of BS 1000 with IndianOil continuing to occupy the top slot. IndianOil remains the lone Rs1-trillion company with net sales of Rs 1.62 trillion.
