Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani has reclaimed the title of Asia’s richest person after a sharp rally in Adani Group stocks boosted his net worth, helping him surpass Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son.
Adani’s net worth swelled to $89.2 billion, putting him ahead of Mukesh Ambani, who has a net worth of $88 billion, and SoftBank’s Masayoshi Son ($87 billion), Forbes reported. Son notably held the title of Asia’s richest person before shares of the Japanese investment firm plunged on Thursday.
