Adani’s rise comes after a difficult period following the January 2023 report by short-seller Hindenburg Research.
The report triggered a massive sell-off in Adani Group stocks, wiping out more than $150 billion in market value. Adani’s personal fortune also fell sharply at the time.
However, over the past two years, Adani Group companies have staged a strong recovery, helping rebuild investor confidence and boosting the chairman’s wealth.
What Drives Their Wealth?
A large part of Ambani’s wealth comes from his stake in Reliance Industries and Jio Financial Services. However, Reliance shares have fallen around 18 percent this year, while Jio Financial has declined nearly 20 percent, hurting his net worth.
