According to the index, Elon Musk remains the world’s richest individual, holding a net worth of $397 billion. He is followed by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, whose fortune stands at $245 billion. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos ranks third with a net worth of $243 billion.

Oracle’s founder and largest shareholder, Larry Ellison, takes the fourth spot with a net worth of $200 billion, while LVMH Chairman and CEO Bernard Arnault ranks fifth at $195 billion. Bill Gates follows in sixth place with a fortune of $169 billion.

Among other Indian billionaires, Mukesh Ambani, ranked 17th on the list, saw his net worth decrease by $2.9 billion to $87.7 billion.

HCLTech’s Shiv Nadar faced a $4.53 billion decline, bringing his total wealth to $38.6 billion.

Musk’s financial standing had previously surged, largely attributed to the rising valuations of his companies and his leadership in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under US President Donald Trump’s administration.
