Tata Group Tops $30 Bn: India's 1st Homegrown Brand to Hit Global Branding Milestone

That’s a landmark moment for Indian enterprise, Vardaan. According to Brand Finance’s 2025 rankings, Tata Group has become the first Indian brand to surpass $30 billion in brand value, clocking in at $31.6 billion—a 10% rise from last year.

It’s not just about the numbers either: Tata also recorded the highest Sustainability Perceptions Value at $4.3 billion, reinforcing its reputation as a responsible global player.
Infosys followed with a 15% jump to $16.3 billion, maintaining its lead in IT services, while HDFC Group surged 37% to $14.2 billion, bolstered by its merger with HDFC Ltd. 

Meanwhile, Adani Group emerged as the fastest-growing brand, up a staggering 82%, and Taj Hotels retained its crown as India’s strongest brand with a Brand Strength Index of 92.2/100.

Brand Finance’s 2025 rankings rely on a robust methodology that combines financial modeling with brand perception metrics.

First, they calculate a Brand Strength Index, which measures factors like marketing investment, stakeholder equity, and overall business performance. This index is informed by large-scale global consumer surveys, giving a sense of how the brand is viewed across markets.

The core valuation technique used is the Royalty Relief Method. It estimates how much a company would pay to license its own brand if it didn’t own it—based on expected revenues, appropriate royalty rates for the sector, and a discounted cash flow model to reflect present value.

In addition to financials, the evaluation considers how much a company invests in building its brand—through advertising, partnerships, and public engagement. Consumer trust, familiarity, and overall reputation carry significant weight.

Finally, broader economic conditions are taken into account to contextualize a brand’s performance. This includes GDP trends, inflation, and sector-specific changes that might influence brand value.

Together, these layers paint a detailed picture of a brand’s financial strength and cultural relevance.

Brand valuations are calculated using a mix of financial analysis, consumer perception, and market dynamics. The three most common approaches are:
  • Income Approach: Estimates the future earnings specifically attributable to the brand and discounts them to present value.
  • Market Approach: Compares the brand to similar ones that have been sold or valued in the market.
  • Cost Approach: Considers how much it would cost to recreate the brand from scratch, including marketing, design, and customer acquisition efforts.
Beyond the math, analysts also factor in brand strength—things like customer loyalty, awareness, reputation, and emotional connection. That’s why a brand like Tata commands such a premium: it’s not just about revenue, but trust, legacy, and perceived value.
