<p>State-run coal behemoth has left behind the IT bellwether Infosys, power utility NTPC Ltd, the country's largest private lender ICICI Bank, FMCG major ITC and engineering giant L&T to enter into the club of top 10 most valued firms. ONGC Ltd and State Bank of India are the only two public sector entities that are ahead of Coal India in terms of full market capitalisation (M-Cap).<br /><br />The world's largest coal producer today listed on the bourses with a handsome premium and zoomed over 32 per cent, over its IPO issue price of Rs 245 per share, to hit a high of Rs 324.75 in the first hour of trade on the Bombay Stock Exchange.<br /><br />The total m-cap of Coal India was at Rs 2,03,860 crore in the first hour of session.
