New Delhi: Gautam Adani retained the richest Asian tag only for one day. The title now belongs to Mukesh Ambani, Reliance Industries chief.
Two days ago, Indian coal mining tycoon Gautam Adani became Asia’s richest person thanks to a push into green energy that has boosted his fortune to $88.5bn, The Guardian reported.

As per Bloomberg’s global ranking of billionaires, Ambani is now at 10th spot with a total net worth of $89.2 billion, while Adani is now ranked 11.
Among the mega-rich whom Adani has leapfrogged to reach the world top 10 were Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, who slipped down the table several places last week after losing $30 billion of his personal fortune, the report said.
