Mukesh Ambani

Chairman and MD, Reliance Industries

When a man continues to stand among the richest Indians despite losing $4.4 billion, one can only be awestruck by his power and wealth. With a net worth of $22.6 billion in 2012, Mukesh Ambani was listed among the 'Top 10 richest Indians' by Forbes magazine. Even his residence Antilia was discussed at length over the past year. At $1 billion, it is the most expensive home in the world. With Ambani now ushering in a new telecom revolution with the rollout of 4G broadband services, he is ready to enter your living room.
He is admirable not because he is the richest Indian but because he is a good businessman and industrialist and for the sheer scale of the projects he undertakes. He is more tuned to the Indian business scenario. He is humble and down to earth despite his wealth.
