- For the Indian diaspora, these business leaders represent different paths to building global enterprises, from traditional industry and retail to technology and investment
- Their rankings offer a snapshot of private wealth rather than a measure of annual income or the funds available for immediate investment
Jayshree Ullal, based in San Francisco, ranks eighth with Rs 77,400 crore.
Abu Dhabi-based business magnate M.A. Yusuff Ali, chairman of the Lulu Group, is ninth with Rs 73,400 crore.
Renuka Jagtiani of Dubai-based Landmark Group completes the top 10 with Rs 70,500 crore.
The figures underline the diversity of business sectors represented among wealthy Indians living abroad, including metals, mining, technology, automotive components, retail and industrial manufacturing.
The ranking also reflects the international reach of Indian-origin businesses, whose operations span multiple markets and industries. However, estimated wealth is not the same as liquid assets and may fluctuate with market valuations, business performance and exchange rates.
