Billionaire Mukesh Ambani on Monday became the richest person in the world, surpassing American software czar Bill Gates, Mexican business tycoon Carlos Slim Helu and famous investment guru Warren Buffett, courtesy the bull run in the stock market.
Following a strong share price rally today in his three group companies - India's most valued firm Reliance Industries [Get Quote], Reliance Petroleum [Get Quote] and Reliance Industrial Infrastructure Ltd [Get Quote] - the net worth of Mukesh Ambani rose to $63.2 billion (Rs 2,49,108 crore).
In comparison, the net worth of both Gates and Slim is estimated to be slightly lower at around $62.29 billion each, with Slim leading among the two by a narrow margin.
Warren Buffett, earlier the third richest in the world, also dropped one position with a net worth of about $56 billion.
Ambani's wealth of about Rs 2,49,000 crore (Rs 2.49 trillion) includes about Rs 2,10,000 crore (Rs 2,10 trillion) from RIL (50.98 per cent stake), Rs 37,500 crore (Rs 375 billion) from RPL (37.5 per cent) and Rs 2,100 crore (Rs 21 billion) from RIIL (46.23 per cent).
