New Delhi: Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) Chairman and India's richest businessman Mukesh Ambani's net worth has crossed $100 billion on Tuesday. He is the first Indian to have assets of more than $100 billion. Ambani's total wealth has increased sharply in the last few days due to a surge in the prices of shares of Reliance Industries Limited (RIL). On Monday, the RIL's share price had touched a 52-week high of Rs 2,480.
Mukesh Ambani's net worth rose to a record $3.7 billion only on Friday, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire Index. The market capitalization of the company also crossed Rs 15 lakh crores. The stock of the largest company by market value was the highest gainer among the Sensex shares. Reliance is the first company in India to achieve this level of market capitalization. It was only after this boom that Mukesh Ambani, Asia's richest businessman, was expected to touch the $100 billion mark soon.
Mukesh Ambani is currently ranked 11th in the list of the world's richest. Ambani is currently only a little behind the world's leading investor Warren Buffet. Buffet's wealth totals $102.6 billion. According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Warren Buffett, Larry Ellison, Steve Balmer, Sergey Brin, Larry Page, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Bernard Arnold, and Elon Musk are currently at the $100 billion clubs.
