This rating makes no sense in a huge country like India with thousands of schools. Probably more of a mrketing gimmick. In fact if you see the lists of notable alumni, of some of the schools, most of them are children of well to do and well connected families. So them doing well in life has probably more to do with the families they were born into rather then the schools they attended.

exactly..on that count Navodya Vidyalays shd top the list as they admit students from rural area from poor families and make them succeed in education and other activities. every damn ranking thing is a marketing gimmick only.
It would be good to provide the criteria based on which the schools were selected. I have been out of India for quite a while and am not in a position to comment on the list but just by the look of it I can smell a false propaganda. We expect Rediff to provide more authentic features than these.

how come no schools from kolkata feature here??most of the times the ICSE and ISC toppers are from Don Bosco, St. Xaviers, La Marts,..most of them are age old institutions producing quality alumnus over the past century....swanky plush buildings with a glossy outlook do not make a top quality school....this is ridiculous!!!!!!!!
