Size doesn’t matter when it comes to performance, and that’s what this year’s Fortune India’s Next 500 is all about. The pandemic-stricken year of FY21 saw 24 companies in the topline bracket of ₹558 crore to ₹1,765 crore, clocking a topline growth of 51% to 879%. That’s an impressive performance considering that the pandemic had played havoc during the year with companies losing out a couple of quarters owing to lockdown restrictions. Just these 24 companies saw their topline growing 88% to ₹26,422 crore. Eight companies grew in the range of 100% to 879% across a diverse set of sectors, including agrochem, auto ancillary, textiles and metals. Next year whether these companies will continue to be the fastest growing within the Fortune Next 500 remains to be seen.
