Mukesh Ambani re-joins $100 billion club as RIL stock surges

Mukesh Ambani is once again a centibillionaire.

The richest person in India — and in Asia — saw his wealth climb $2.8 billion to $101.8 billion Thursday, as shares of his flagship, Reliance Industries Ltd, rose 2.6% to close at a record high. He’s returning to the $100-billion club for the first time since June 2022, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
