India’s 3 Best Women non-owner Corporate Leaders

By Vipin

After giving you India’s 3 Best non-owner Corporate Leaders, it’s time to give you India’s 3 Best Women non-owner Corporate Leaders, take a look.

Roopa Kudva, MD & CEO, CRISIL Ltd.



Roopa Kudva, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of CRISIL, India’s leading rating, research risk and policy advisory company; is a widely respected expert in the financial markets. In my opinion, Roopa has led the CRISIL ratings business to its present position of dominance in India and played a pivotal part in the development of CRISIL’s diversified businesses.

Roopa whose career spans over more than two decades primarily stresses on offering innovative and high quality services to customers. All in all, one can safely say that she will only get better with every passing day.

Renuka Ramnath, MD & CEO, ICICI Ventures



Amidst ICICI Bank’s flush gang of girls, Renuka Ramnath is arguably sitting on the hottest seat. With private equity falling apart globally, and increasing interest from global investors in the green Indian market, Renuka Ramnath is the backbone of ICICI Ventures.

The best part about Renuka is that she is aware of the fact that she is treading a fine line even as the Indian equity markets continue to soar. Renuka is an engineering graduate and a MBA in finance, during her two decade long career with the bank, she has spearheaded number of business initiatives. Renuka has brought tremendous innovation to India’s private equity landscape.

Naina Lal Kidwai, CEO, Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, India



Naina Lal Kidwai is the first Indian woman to graduate from the Harvard Business School. In addition, Naina Lal Kidwai is also one of the first buccaneer banker’s who would put those male pirates to shame. Country Head of HSBC Group Companies in India, her pioneering leadership has helped HSBC India record the highest growth in net profit.

She was awarded the highest civilian honour in India, Padma Shri this year for her exemplary work in the field of Trade and Industry. Kidwai has many laurels, including being named in the ’50 Women to Watch’ report issued by the Wall Street Journal last year.
