    Coronavirus was no ordinary disruption: Fortune India Editor
  • "The Coronavirus pandemic has shown how the world can change almost irreversibly... As the pandemic gripped the world's biggest economies, the impact on India too has turned out to be severe," wrote Sourav Majumdar, Fortune India Editor, on the publication's website.

    "The virus led to business models, strategies, and plans being rendered irrelevant overnight as it became clear...this was no ordinary disruption," he added.

    List needs to be understood against backdrop of far-reaching changes

  • "The 2020 Fortune India 500 list of India's largest companies...needs to be understood against the backdrop of these far-reaching changes," said Majumdar. Furthermore, he stated that the list also points to the "various challenges" companies were facing even before the pandemic.

  • "While some sectors took a bigger hit than others, there was hardly any segment of business which was not affected," Majumdar stated.

    "And as the Indian economy—after the first two terrible quarters of FY21—begins clawing back, companies and their managements know that dealing with the VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity) world will dominate strategic planning going forward," he wrote.

  • Quote

    'Even the largest companies need to adapt to sudden changes'

  • "There is a 22% fall in cumulative profits of the 500 companies in the 2020 list. The impact of COVID-19 will be evident in next year's listing. In the VUCA world, even the largest companies...need to be nimble and adapt to sudden changes," noted Majumdar.
