Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani, who is at the centre of controversy following Hindenburg Research’s allegation of stock manipulation and accounting fraud, lost $28 billion in wealth, or Rs 3,000 crore a week in 2022-23, and slipped to the second position in India’s richest person list, as per Hurun Global rich list released on Wednesday.

Despite a significant decline in wealth, Ambani has acquired the position of richest Asian. He is the only Indian to feature in the list of the top 10 billionaires in the world. Ambani is ranked at 9th position globally.
