The race to acquire wealth is going on between the country’s well-known industrialists Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani. The latest data from the Bloomberg Billionaires Index shows that Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani has once again overtaken Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani. Now Ambani has come at number 9 and Adani at number 10 in the list of top 10 billionaires in the world. In this way Mukesh Ambani has once again got back the crown of Asia’s richest person.
How did this reversal happen?
According to reports, there is a continuous decline in the shares of Adani Group. This trend continued on Wednesday as well. As a result, the net worth of Gautam Adani has decreased by $ 2.42 billion or about 18,780 crores. Now the net worth is $ 95.7 billion. On the other hand, $ 986 million is added to the net worth of Reliance Industries. In this way the net worth of Mukesh Ambani has become $ 96.1 billion. This year his net worth has increased by $ 6.09 billion.
However, some time ago, Adani had reached number 5 in the list of the world’s rich with a net worth of $ 125 billion. But the situation has changed for some time now. Shares of all the seven listed companies of Adani Group have declined. Due to the fall of shares on Tuesday, there was a decrease in net worth by $ 3.69 billion, or about Rs 28,611 crore.
Who is the richest?
Tesla CEO Elon Musk still tops the list of the world’s richest people, despite a $51 billion drop in net worth this year.
