"Adani Group recorded the highest brand growth this year, with an 82 per cent increase in value. This progress stems from its aggressive infrastructure strategy, expanding green energy goals, and enhanced brand perception among stakeholders," the report noted.
Tata Group continues to lead as the most valuable Indian brand, with its value increasing 10 per cent to USD 31.6 billion. This milestone reflects both India's growing economic influence and Tata's broad presence across industries including electronics, EVs, semiconductors, AI, and clean energy.

According to Brand Finance's 2025 report, the collective brand value of companies in the India 100 rankings now stands at USD 236.5 billion.
With India's GDP growth for FY2025-26 expected between 6 and 7 per cent, supported by robust capital expenditure, rising domestic demand, and strong public-private collaboration, Indian brands are poised to tap into emerging opportunities despite global challenges.
