In the world’s youngest nation—where over 65% of the population is under 35—India’s future is already being shaped by those bold enough to lead it. From boardrooms to breakout ideas, a new generation of business leaders is rewriting the rules. This year's Fortune India’s 40 Under 40 celebrates these changemakers—icons in the making like Akash Ambani, Kaviya Kalanithi Maran, Shashwat Goenka, Parth Jindal, Aman Mehta, and Devansh Jain—who are not just carrying forward legacies but boldly reimagining them for a new era. Alongside them are first-generation disruptors like Sagar Daryani, scaling Wow! Momo with a vision to take ₹100 momos to 5,000 cities, and Palak Shah, turning the Banarasi weave into a global fashion story with Ekaya Banaras. These are the entrepreneurs turning ambition into scale. And even beyond traditional industry, the entrepreneurial wave is pulling in creative forces—Ranveer Singh, for instance, is shaking up wellness and nutrition with Bold Care and SuperYou, proving that passion, backed by purpose, is the new blueprint for building brands.
“Despite early-year turbulence due to global conflicts and input cost pressures, the industry added ₹1.4 lakh crore in value led by a sharp post-April recovery. DLF, Prestige , and Anant Raj posted over 20% rebounds in just 2 months,” said Anas Rahman Junaid , Founder And Chief Researcher, Hurun India, in a statement.
Of the 63 new entrants this year, Ritesh Agarwal -led Oyo found entry into the list for the first time, and that too becoming a part of the top 15 directly.

Mumbai topped the list with 42 companies, followed by Bengaluru at a distant 23, New Delhi with 16.
The youngest company to have debuted on the list was Deepak Parekh-led Schloss Bangalore, which was valued at ₹13,600 crore. The company was founded just 6 years ago.
