Top 15 Wealthiest Families In The World

The three-generation Mumbai-based Ambani family is worth $93.7 billion. Dhirubhai Ambani started building Reliance Industries in the 1950s. After Dhirubhai's death, his sons Mukesh and Anil got control of the family fortune in 2002.

After the bitter succession battle, Mukesh was in control of the oil petrochemicals, gas, and refining operations of the business. However, Anil was left with the assets management, telecommunications, entertainment, and power generation business.
