This list is topped by Brazilian energy giant Petrobras' CEO, Maria Das Gracas Foster, followed by Turkish conglomerate Sabanci Holding's Guler Sabanci at the second place and Australian banking giant Westpac's CEO Gail Kelly at third.
Kochhar, managing director and CEO of India's largest private sector bank, has moved up one position from her fifth position on the 2012 list, while Ramkrishna has made it to the list for the first time.
Shikha Sharma and Naina Lal Kidwai were ranked 37th and 40th respectively on Fortune's international list for most powerful business women.
On Chitra Ramkrishna, a newcomer to the International Power 50 list, the magazine said she has made a history as the first woman to head an exchange in India.
'The National Stock Exchange lifer, who was part of the core five-member team selected by the government to create a screen-based exchange in 1993, has shattered the glass ceiling, making a history as the first woman to head an exchange in India,' the magazine said.
