New Delhi: Adani Group owner Gautam Adani, who was once number-2 in the list of the world’s richest, has lost so much wealth in a month that he is now out of the top-30.
After the report of Hindenburg Research, his wealth has seen a record-breaking decline. According to Forbes’ Real Time Billionaires Index, Gautam Adani has reached number 33 on Saturday.
Gautam Adani’s wealth was more than $ 100 billion before January 24, but after the report of the US short selling firm, this asset has decreased rapidly.
According to the Bloomberg billionaires list, Gautam Adani’s wealth has decreased by $ 80.6 billion so far this year. However, Gautam Adani is at number 30 in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
Now, Adani’s total assets are less than half compared to Mukesh Ambani’s net worth. Gautam Adani’s total assets in the Forbes list of billionaires have been $ 35.3 billion. On Friday, his total wealth declined by $ 1.4 billion.
On the other hand, Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani’s wealth increased by $ 628 million on Friday and now his total net worth is $ 84.1 billion, which is more than double the total assets of Gautam Adani. Mukesh Ambani is ranked 8th in the list of rich people.
