India origin Indra Nooyi is among the 13 women who are at the helm of companies featured in Fortune 500 list compiled by the US magazine.

Nooyi, who heads Pepsico, was featured in the same category last year as well. This year the beverages company is ranked at the 175th position in the annual list of Fortune 500 companies based on their annual revenues.

The number of women CEOs in the list for 2009 has increased by one from last year's list with a new entrant Lynn Elsenhans of US based firm Sunoco.

The other women CEOs in the list include Angela F Braly of WellPoint, Ellen Kullman of DuPont, Irene Rosenfeld of Kraft Foods, Carol Meyrowitz of TJX, and Gail P Kelly of Westpack Banking.

Patricia Woertz's agricultural processing company Archer Daniels Midland is top among the firms managed by women.

Pepsico revenue rose by 9.6 per cent to $43.25 billion in 2008, while Archer Daniels Midland registered revenue of $69.81 billion last year.

DuPont's Ellen Kullman moved up to CEO post on January 1, 2009, becoming the first female CEO of the company in more than 200 years.

The list for 2009 also includes Anglo American chief Cynthia Carroll, Rite Aid's Mary F Sammons, Areva's Anne Lauvergeon, SkandEnskilBank's Annika Falkengren and Premafin Finanziaria's Giulia Maria Ligresti.
