Hurun India and 360 ONE Wealth recently released the 360 ONE Wealth Hurun India Rich List 2023 which is an annual ranking of the wealthiest individuals in India. 

The list is based on the net worth of individuals, which is calculated by taking into account their assets, such as publicly traded stocks, real estate, and private businesses, minus their liabilities, such as debt.

The list includes individuals who are residing or born and grew up in India. This is the 12th annual ranking of the richest individuals in India. 

These wealth calculations according to the report are as of 30 August 2023. 

Key Highlights: 

  • Hurun India Rich List determines that 1,319 individuals have over 1,000 crores. 
  • Mukesh Ambani takes over Gautam Adani to score the richest Indian Title 
  • Manish Kejriwal, Founder of Kedaara Capital is now the first Indian private equity fund manager on this list with a net worth of 3,000 crore. 
  • The average age of this list for men is 63 and for women is 62. 

Mukesh Ambani has reclaimed the title of being the richest Indian according to the 2023 Hurun India Rich List. He has overtaken Gautam Adani and Family, who had been the richest Indians for the past year.

Ambani's wealth has grown from ₹3 lakh crore in 2019 to ₹8 lakh crore in 2023. This is due to the strong performance of Reliance Industries. 

Mukesh Ambani was followed by Gautam Adani and Family with a wealth of ₹4 lakh crore. His wealth has decreased by 619,000 crore rupees. This is the biggest annual wealth decline ever recorded for an individual in India.

Even though the Hindenburg report said bad things about the Adani Group, the companies in the group have done well. 

Their total income has increased by 85% to 262,499 crore rupees, and their profit after tax has increased by 82% to 23,509 crore rupees in the financial year 2022-23.
