London: Tata group’s Land Rover has forayed into an elite club of world’s 100 most valuable brands as the only Indian-owned entity, while iconic Apple has retained its top slot with nearly $119 billion valuation.

Land Rover, an iconic British car brand owned by Indian conglomerate Tatas, has been ranked 91st with a brand value of $4.47 billion and is one of the five new entrants on this annual list compiled by leading brand consultancy Interbrand.

Apple — maker of iPhone mobiles, Mac computers, iPad tablets and iPod music players among others — is followed by Google on the second position ($107 billion). These are the only two with brand values in excess of $100 billion.

While Land Rover is the only Indian-owned entity on the list, there are at least six other brands ranked among top 100 that are part of the entities run by Indian-origin CEOs. These include Satya Nadella-led Microsoft (5th with brand value of $61 billion), Indra Nooyi-led Pepsi (24th; $19 billion), Shantanu Narayen-led Adobe (77th; $5.3 billion) and Ajay Banga-led MasterCard (88th; $4.7 billion).
