Ambani’s total net worth has been pegged at $101 billion. Elon Musk topped the Index with a net worth of $222 billion as Jeff Bezos held the second spot with $191 billion.
"The index is a dynamic measure of personal wealth based on changes in markets, the economy and Bloomberg reporting,” the publication said.

As far as RIL is concerned, there has been a transformation afoot, with the energy major’s foray into retail, telecommunications and e-commerce. Since its launch in 2016, Reliance Jio already holds a sizeable market share. In fact, it added more than 65.1 lakh subscribers in July alone.
