Mumbai: US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met Indian business leaders on Saturday, the first full day of her visit to the country.

She discussed an array of issues over breakfast with around 10 of India's top corporate names, including Mukesh Ambani, Swati Piramal, Jamshyd Godrej and Chanda Kochhar, at the Taj Mahal Palace and Tower Hotel.

Before her meeting with the business leaders, Clinton attended a commemorative event in the memory of 26/11 victims at the hotel, one of the landmarks attacked by terrorists from Pakistan in November last year. She had checked in there Friday as a mark of solidarity with the victims of terror.

More than 170 people including foreigners were killed in the carnage that soured relations between India and Pakistan.

Hillary will fly to New Delhi on Sunday for meetings with India's political leaders and members of the civil society.
