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.

The technology-led financial services company, in its statement, says the order does not affect the existing business or the activities of the authorised persons affiliated with the company. "The company is evaluating various options available including filing an appeal against the Order." The online brokerage says it has always strived to and carried out its business in compliance with extant laws and regulations in letter and spirit.
NSE last week prohibited Angel One from onboarding new authorised persons (APs) for a period of six months from the date of the order, and directed to conduct an inspection of all its APs and submit a report in six months. The NSE order was passed in respect of an alleged failure to monitor the operations of its APs.
In addition to this, the NSE also directed Angel One to submit a detailed report on its "investor grievance redressal mechanism" comprising total investor complaints and arbitration matters registered against the company and its APs in the past year, including those pertaining to assured returns and unauthorised trading, and those resolved in the said period.
Notably, Angel One last week onboarded Deepak Chandani as chief data officer, who will be responsible for overseeing the data and analytics strategy at Angel One. With Deepak’s onboarding, the company aims to harness the benefits of a large data lake via artificial intelligence, machine learning, and analytics.
Angel One says it is extensively using AI, machine learning, and data science to create a superior digital experience. The company has built a host of digital properties like Angel One Mobile App, Angel BEE Mobile App, ‘ARQ Prime’ a rule-based recommendation engine, ‘SmartAPI’ a free-to-integrate API platform, ‘Smart Money’ an investor education platform, and ‘SmartStore’, a marketplace for fintech products.
Angel One reported a consolidated profit of ₹220.8 crore in Q1 FY24 as compared to ₹181.6 crore in the year-ago period, thus recording a growth of 22% on a year-on-year basis. The company's total revenue grew 18% to ₹811.1 crore in Q1 against ₹684.5 crore in the year-ago period.
