The biggest gainer was vaccine maker Serums's Cyrus Poonawalla, whose wealth rose from $6.2 billion to $7.9 billion. He was ranked at the 9th position.
In a report, it was said that the wealth of many of India's 100 richest has declined due to the fall in the stock markets and depreciation of the rupee over the past year. 10 of them saw their net worth dip by over $1 billion each in one year, including Lakshmi Mittal, whose net worth dropped by $4.6 billion (ranked 8th with $11.2 billion).
