Besides Tata Global Beverages at the third spot, others are Tata Steel (6), Tata Consultancy Services (7), Tata Motors (8), Tata Communications (10) and Tata Chemicals (16).
"Over the last decade, the engagement of Indian companies with overseas markets has undergone a complete transformation. India has gradually become more integrated with the global economy and Indian companies are emerging as important players on the global landscape," ISB said.
"Indian transnational corporations have significantly increased their international asset base as well as their international revenues over the past decade," it added.
The top 20 Indian companies have been ranked from a list of 29 firms that participated in the survey.

The methodology is based on the framework and the Transnationality Index (TNI) developed by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).
