Ratan-Tata not on list of richest men

Everyone knows Elon Musk because he is the richest person in the world, with an estimated net worth of $268 billion. Everyone knows about Gautam Adani and Mukesh Ambani because they are the richest people in India. But everyone knows Ratan Tata for a different reason. It does not imply that he is not wealthy, but he is well-known for his philanthropic and humanitarian efforts rather than his wealth.

Ratan Tata, an Indian corporate giant, is unquestionably one of our country’s most adored and beloved figures. He is a terrific humanitarian who is not corrupted by his fame or success, in addition to having an outstanding commercial vision and being a generous philanthropist.
