The chairman of Reliance Industries Mukesh Ambani surged to the top spot as India’s richest man. India has added 38 <keyword id="6393637" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="billionaires" source="Orion">billionaires</keyword> to its rich list, taking the total tally to 259. Even as the developed world is staring at a recession, India is cementing its position as an economic powerhouse. Nearly 65% of people in the rich list amassed a combined wealth of close to $1 trillion. This is akin to the combined GDP of Singapore and the UAE, Hurun said. Mukesh Ambani surpassed Gautam Adani, who dropped to the second spot, in spite of only a 2% growth in his wealth in the last one year. After Adani’s wealth more than halved in the last year, the gap between Ambani and Adani wealth widened by ₹3,30,000 crore. The top 10 has seen a lot of upheaval in the last one year – as only Shiv Nadar and Cyrus Poonawala were able to hold on to the positions they held last year. Gautam Adani’s brother Vinod Shantilal Adani who was the sixth richest Indian last year, exited the top 10 list this year. He is now the twelfth richest Indian after his wealth dropped by 37%. The other notable exit is Uday Kotak, the chairman of Kotak Mahindra Bank who is now the 11th richest man in the county after his wealth dropped 6% last year. Kumar Mangalam Birla &amp; family and Niraj Bajaj &amp; family made a remarkable return to the top 10 this year as wealth went up by 5% and 7% respectively.

However, their average wealth has decreased by 9.3%. The India Rich List added 273 new entrants and 38 new billionaires over the last year. The number of dollar billionaires also went up to 259, up 38 as compared to last year. “The trends prove that India is a shining moon in a world that is staring at recession. While the China Rich List has dropped 10% for each of this year and last year, both in terms of average wealth and in terms of the number of people that make the list. India is closing the gap,” said Anas Rahman Junaid, MD and Chief Researcher, Hurun India. India has 259 billionaires, up 38 compared to last year. While industrial products, metals &amp; mining added the greatest number of new entrants to the list. Pharma still holds the numero uno position and contributed 133 entrants to the list. “Over the past five years, many entrepreneurs have witnessed extraordinary wealth growth, some experiencing an astonishing 1,000% surge. Construction and engineering emerge as the top gainers in the top 100 list, followed closely by pharmaceuticals which has a cut-off of ₹20,000 crore,” said Anirudha Taparia, co-founder and joint CEO, 360 ONE Wealth. Funding winter &amp; founders’ wealth While 264 in the Indian rich list saw their wealth drop in the last one year, there were as many as 55 dropouts. The most notable of the dropouts is Byju Raveendran. The founder of edtech Byju’s exited the list on the back of investor markdowns. The funding winter and its ripple effects led to startup founders on the list experiencing a collective wealth dip of ₹85,000 crore. Recent policies, like the retrospective GST imposition on gaming companies and the angel tax and so on, could potentially hinder long-term wealth generation by startups, Hurun said. However, a few IPOs that stumbled last year did make a comeback. As new-age internet companies gain in value, entrepreneurs like Deepinder Goyal of Zomato and Yashish Dahiya of PB Fintech have seen their wealth increase by over 70%. Startup wealth creation will persist, albeit within a changing landscape, Junaid said. The IPO stars: Public issues and rich list debuts The stock markets also rewarded many public debuts and made their founders into billionaires. Ramesh Kunhikannan’s Kaynes Technology made a strong stock market debut. And he entered the list with a wealth of ₹8,200 crore. The spectacular listing gains provided by stock market debuts of many companies have pulled their owners into the rich list. Some of them include Jagdish Prasad Chowdhary of Titagarh Wagons, Ranjit Pendurthi of Archean Chemical Industries and Ajay P Thakker &amp; family of Jupiter Life Line Hospitals. Pavan Kumar Bajaj and Karan Bajaj of Electronics Mart India and Harsha Engineers’ Harish Rangwala and Rajendra Shantilal Shah too entered the coveted list of richest Indians after their stocks skyrocketed on debut. But there is money to be made in private markets too. Manish Kejriwal of Kedaara Capital became the first Indian Private Equity fund manager to enter the list.

hours by the time markets closed, the stocks were down to ₹1842.35. On Thursday morning, Reliance share price stood at ₹1851.90. <div type="image" title="RIL 5 days." msid="76993015" hostid="261"></div> The fall in stocks came despite the fact that Reliance Jio got a $4.5 billion investment from Google, in the last of its investments for Jio Platforms. During the AGM, Ambani also spoke about the delay in the deal with Saudi Aramco, which could have triggered the fall in stocks. He said that while the Saudi Aramco deal for equity investment in the O2C business has not yet taken off as per the original timeline, Reliance values the two decade long relationship with Saudi Aramco and is very committed to a long term partnership. “One of the key reasons for the stock to correct post the AGM was the management's commentary that the Saudi Aramco deal has not progressed as per expectations and that the company will spin off their O2C business into a separate subsidiary. RIL and Saudi Aramco had signed a non-binding letter of intent in August 2019 wherein Saudi Aramco was looking at picking up a 20% stake in the O2C business at an enterprise value of $75 billion,” Jyoti Roy, DVP- Equity Strategist at Angel Broking told <a href="https://www.businesstoday.in/markets/company-stock/ril-share-price-falls-all-time-high-on-profit-booking-agm-mukesh-ambani/story/409964.html">Business Today.</a> Other analysts too agreed. “Deal with Saudi Aramco had not progressed as per the original schedule. Everyone was expecting a positive announcement on the deal progress. All other announcements are already known apart from google investment, plan to build affordable 4G smartphone and potential deployment of 5G services next year,” Abhijeet Bora, Senior Research Analyst at Sharekhan told <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/stocks/news/ril-tanks-4-as-no-progress-announced-on-aramco-deal/articleshow/76978897.cms">Economic Times.</a> SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/corporates/news/checkout-mukesh-ambani-reliance-industries-annual-general-meeting-highlights/articleshow/76976243.cms">Mukesh Ambani AGM speech highlights — Reliance Industries announces Jio Glass, Google partnership and plans to build a new smartphone</a> <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/startups/news/zerodha-founder-defends-the-self-valuation-of-nearly-a-billion-dollars-and-why-he-never-raised-funds-from-investors/articleshow/76991607.cms">INTERVIEW: Zerodha founder defends the ‘self-valuation’ of nearly a billion dollars⁠ — and why he never raised funds from investors</a>

According to World Bank, India’s GDP was $2.76 trillion in 2018 and its per capita income is $1,670 per annum. Mukesh Ambani adds over $4 billion to his wealth According to the <keyword id="727662" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="Forbes-India-Rich-List">Forbes India rich list</keyword> 2019, this year’s total fortune of the 100 richest people is 8% less than last year.

He added $4.1 billion after the success of Reliance’s flagship telecom business— Jio. The venture which started in 2016 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/reliance-jio-subscribers-cross-330-million-and-profits-jump/articleshow/70295851.cms">added over 330 million subscribers. </a> Ambani is followed by <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/gautam-adanis-wealth-multiplied-nearly-3-times-in-the-last-four-years/articleshow/71304596.cms">Gautam Adani</a>, the promoter of Adani group, who<a href="http://www.forbesindia.com/article/india-rich-list-2019/india-rich-list-2019-mukesh-ambani-dominates-adani-kotak-make-big-gains/55657/1"> jumped</a> from position 8 in 2018 to 2 this year. Hinduja brothers came in at the third position. Their networth has dropped from $19.5 billion in 2018 to $15.6 billion in 2019. Forbes placed Pallonji Mistry ($14.4), the owner of the 154-year-old Shapoorji Pallonji Group at fourth position. <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/thelife/personalities/news/uday-kotak-richest-asia-banker-4x-growth-in-wealth-in-10-years/articleshow/71516598.cms">Uday Kotak,</a>who is among the three gainers on the list, took the fifth position. <a href="http://www.forbesindia.com/article/india-rich-list-2019/india-rich-list-2019-mukesh-ambani-dominates-adani-kotak-make-big-gains/55657/1">He added $4 billion to his wealth</a> thanks to a 39% increase in the value of his stake in Kotak Mahindra Bank. India’s per capita income is $148 a month A government report earlier stated that India’s per capita income is around <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/indias-per-capita-income-rises-10-to-rs-10534-a-month-in-fy19/articleshow/69601770.cms">$148 (₹10,534) in FY 19</a>. This comes after a Credit Suisse report highlighted the inequality in wealth distribution in India. According to the 2018 report , 77.4% of India’s wealth is in the hands of 10% of its population.And, 1% of the richest of India control more than 51% of the country’s wealth. “While wealth has been rising in India, not everyone has shared in this growth. There is still considerable wealth poverty, reflected in the fact that 91% of the adult population has wealth below $10,000. At the other extreme, a small fraction of the population (0.6% of adults) has a net worth over $100,000,” said Credit Suisse. Billionaires lost more than $1 billion because of economic slowdown Most of the people on the list have lost fortune except for Ambani, Adani and Kotak. The net worth of half the listees shrank because of the current economic slowdown. As many as 14 people on the list lost more than $1 billion, reported Forbes. However, the total wealth held by all the 100 people, is still more than India’s per capita income.

If you think he has peaked, you are mistaken. In the next three years, he might become one of the five richest men in the world, as per Hurun Research. If he manages to achieve that, he would be the first Indian in it. “The next millions for Ambani would come in from telecom and retail and all the things he is building around it. So, it would come from broadband, the Internet and the entire ecosystem, and his plans to integrate kirana stores with the telecom infrastructure, among others,” Rupert Hoogewerf, founder and Chairman of Hurun Report <a href="https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/economy/huruns-list-mukesh-ambani-may-soon-break-into-top-5/article30259407.ece#">told</a> BusinessLine. Last week, his net worth stood at ₹380,700 crore — right after the market value of his company swelled to ₹10 lakh crore. That made him the ninth richest in the world as per,<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/meghabahree/2019/12/03/indias-mukesh-ambani-is-now-among-the-top-10-richest-in-the-world/#f30502a35603"> according to Forbes. </a> Ambani is already richer than Google Founder <keyword id="100155" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Larry-Page">Larry Page</keyword> and Micheal Bloomberg, who is now busy making a bid for a Presidential nomination is the US. However, on Hurun list, Ambani ranks as the tenth richest man in the world. In India too, his riches are unparalleled. Not only is he the richest person in India but he also has more wealth than the second and third richest combined — SP Hinduja family and <keyword id="6419840" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Azim-Premji">Azim Premji</keyword>. He is also the only Asian in the Forbes list of top 10 richest people. This August, Reliance Industries unveiled a list of plans which is to turn completely debt free by 2020. He also said that in the future he would spin off his retail and telecom businesses into individual companies and unlock value in them. That resulted in a boost of his stock price, as shareholders await a bonanza from public offerings of both companies.

In 3 years, Mukesh Ambani might be one of the five richest people in the world

But three Indian billionaires had an exceptionally good year in spite of a slowdown. And, they are the usual suspects — Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, and Uday Kotak. This year, 15 Indian billionaires lost over $1 billion, but the trio’s wealth grew substantially. Ambani, the chairman of India’s most valued companies added $4.1 billion to his net worth. Amongst others, his telecom venture seems to be paying off. As he added 340 million subscribers in three years of launch, his shareholders rewarded him handsomely. But it is not just Jio, revenues from Reliance Retail too grew at 47.5% to ₹38,196 crore in the quarter ending June 2019. The venture which was launched in 2015, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/mukesh-ambanis-reliance-retail-reports-over-47-growth-in-revenue/articleshow/70295939.cms">is now seeing the benefits of scale</a>, in the CFO’s own words. Uday Kotak, the billionaire promoter of <keyword id="46013" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Kotak-Mahindra-Bank">Kotak Mahindra bank</keyword>, also added $4 billion to his net worth. All this is thanks to the government’s move to reduce the corporate tax rate from 30% to 22%, reported Forbes. His share value increased 39% in a year. India’s banking sector is under pressure because of loans which turned non-performing assets. According to Bloomberg, five of the 10<a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/markets/stocks/news/indias-bank-shares-are-ruining-value-buying-in-emerging-markets/articleshow/71482400.cms"> worst performing</a> financial firms on the MSCI Emerging Markets since May were from India. Kotak Mahindra Bank however is an oak in a forest of willows. In the first quarter of the year, the bank’s <a href="https://www.livemint.com/companies/company-results/kotak-mahindra-bank-q1-net-profit-rises-33-on-lower-provisions-1563795009867.html">profits rose 33%</a>, on lower provisions which is basically an indicator of good asset quality. Its net NPA also declined from 0.97% last year to 0.75% in 2019. All these factors and more helped the country’s third largest bank retain and even gain share value, helping Uday Kotak increase his wealth. The third gainer who bucked the slowed economic trend was Gautam Adani, who owns India’s largest private port at Mundra. Gautam Adani’s net worth increased from $8.7 billion in 2018 to $11.4 billion — all thanks to the new businesses he is venturing into. His position in the list also jumped from eight to become the second richest person on the list, in a year. He is venturing into new businesses like airport management, data centre parks, roads, water infrastructure, aerospace and defence. The growth of Adani Group between 2014 and 2019 can be attributed to the Indian government. Adani won 25 out of 126 bids government bids across the various industries of the group. Moreover, he also got clearance to kickstart its Australian coal mine project after 9 years of delay — bringing his massive $10 billion investment into the mine — to fruition.
