Asia has a new richest person as India’s Mukesh Ambani unseated at top of billionaires’ list
Gautam Adani and his family are now worth Rs11,600bn (£104.4bn), making him the richest person in Asia, according to the Hurun India Rich List.
Mr Adani’s wealth has surged by 95 per cent, going from Rs4,740bn (£42.66bn) to Rs116,000bn, recovering well from the Hindenburg Report.
Reliance Industries chairman and managing director Mukesh Ambani, who was Asia’s richest man and recently threw an extravagant wedding for his youngest son, saw his overall wealth increase by 25 per cent to Rs10,140bn (£91.26bn).
The Hindenburg report, titled “Adani Group: How the World’s 3rd Richest Man is Pulling the Largest Con in Corporate History” was published on 25 January last year, and accused them of fraud and other malfeasance. The Adani group denied the report, calling it “malicious”, “baseless” and full of “selective misinformation.”
