Showcasing the publication and highlighting the contribution of the PSU sector in India, Manish Sinha, Managing Director, Dun & Bradstreet India commented, “In recent years there has been an extensive narrative on ‘responsible and inclusive capitalism’. This approach to business serves customers, employees and society, in addition to shareholders. 

Indian PSUs have been embodying this philosophy before this vocabulary existed.  Many PSUs were created after independence and in the decades that followed, have supported India’s self-reliant economic growth and balanced regional development. 

It is a credit to them that they have delivered these socially desirable outcomes despite many challenges: shortage of talent and non-commercial targets. D&B celebrates India’s Top PSUs 2018 to acknowledge their contribution to the Indian economy”.
