As India continues to be the world’s fastest-growing major economy, Fortune India presents its special issue on the nation’s Top 100 Billionaires. Curated in partnership with Waterfield Advisors, this year’s list reflects a slight decline in the number of dollar billionaires—from 185 to 182—even as the entry threshold for the Top 100 rose to ₹24,283 crore, up from ₹22,739 crore last year. From stalwarts like Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, and the Mistry family, who continue to lead the list, to major gainers such as Sunil Mittal and Kumar Mangalam Birla, the issue goes beyond the numbers to explore the resilience, ambition, and strategic foresight that define India’s wealth creators.

After Flipkart parted its ways with another Walmart-owned company, PhonePe, one of the country’s largest digital payments platforms in December 2022, the former has been striving towards building its fintech offerings. This started with the rollout of the Flipkart UPI service in partnership with Axis Bank. The same month, the company shared that it recorded over five million transactions worth ₹200 crore through the platform. This was followed by the June 26 release announcement of a beta version of the mobile application of Flipkart’s in-house fintech venture SuperMoney on the Android Play Store. The platform will offer payments, credit, deposits and other digital financial services. On July 10, the company launched its bill payment services on the platform in collaboration with BillDesk, including recharges for Fastag, electricity and mobile bills.
The move comes at a time when its rival Amazon also is investing heavily in its Indian fintech arm, for creating a more competitive digital payments space, currently dominated by Google Pay and PhonePe. In June, Amazon India invested ₹600 crore in Amazon Pay, the arm which had received its Payment Aggregator licence from the RBI only in February.
