Awards

Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited was awarded the Top Indian Company under the 'Media and Entertainment' sector at the Dun & Bradstreet - Rolta Corporate Awards 2011 held on June 1 at The Trident, Mumbai.

The 'Dun & Bradstreet - Rolta Corporate Awards 2011' seeks to recognize and felicitate Corporate India's leading companies from various sectors. The Awards event is closely tied to the publication, India's Top 500 Companies 2011. The companies considered for the Dun & Bradstreet - Rolta Corporate Awards 2011 comprised of the top 500 companies of India as covered under the publication. The Awards methodology was applied to this list of top 500 companies, duly classified in their respective sectors.

D&B India developed a proprietary financial model for identifying the top companies in each sector. The model is based on the premise of recognizing the twin virtues of 'size' and 'growth' of the Companies while awarding them. The analyst team identified pertinent financial parameters to fulfill this premise and assigned weights to them. Winners were chosen on the basis of a composite score of these weighted parameters. The eight parameters considered for ranking the companies include - total income, net profit, net worth, net profit margin, return on net worth, average market capitalization for FY11, growth in total income and growth in net profit.
