The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|March 28, 2025
Mukesh Ambani remains the richest person in Asia, with a fortune of Rs 8.6 trillion, despite a Rs 1 trillion drop from last year ahead of Gautam Adani, whose wealth rose by 13 per cent to Rs 8.4 trillion, said Hurun Global Rich List 2025.
It further highlighted that India now ranks third in the world in the number of billionaires, with 284 on the list.
The combined wealth of Indian billionaires stands at Rs 98 trillion—about one-third of India's GDP and more than Saudi Arabia's entire GDP. Of these 284 individuals, 175 saw their wealth rise, while 109 saw it decline or remain flat.
India added 13 new billionaires this year, bringing the total to 284, it said.
