If you talk about size of kingdoms,

SARTHAK BEHURIA...
CMD, Indian Oil Corporation

If you talk about size of kingdoms, he would have the heartiest laugh! Sarthak Behuria is the silent man behind the $41 billion Indian Oil Company (IOC), India’s largest commercial enterprise! Designated as the CMD, Behuria is currently spearheading the oily machine’s gargantuan dreams to run past the ‘$61 billion revenues’ target by 2011-12. After graduating from IIM-A in 1973, Behuria joined Burma Shell. After a short stint there, he stepped onto the Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) platform and scaled heights there. Finally, Behuria moved to IOC. Known for his soft skills, the man has been hugely successful in implementing strategies on a global scale. Even at present, Behuria is trying to explore many uncharted territories in the sphere of oil exploration and production. A true Indian, he voiced his assurance to the nation as, “IOC’s commitment to the nation is unswerving & we continue to remain focussed on delivering quality products and services to the 1.3 billion countrymen, wherever they may be.” Behuria has also earned a reputation of practicing transparent practices. He was also honoured by PM Dr. Manmohan Singh for his contribution to the cause of public enterprises. No wonder, he still heads IOC!
