Which Indian billionaire is the chairman of the Adani Group?

The story behind the answer

Which Indian billionaire is the chairman of the Adani Group? Gautam Adani is the chairman of the Adani Group.

Adani began his business career in Mumbai as a diamond sorter in 1978. After managing a family plastics operation, he founded the Adani Group in Ahmedabad in 1988 as a commodity-trading business. The group later expanded into ports, power, mining, airports, logistics and renewable energy.

A common mix-up is confusing the Adani Group with other large Indian business houses such as Tata, Reliance or Infosys. Adani is the group’s founder and chairman, while the organization itself is a diversified corporate group rather than a single company. A neighbouring fact readers often ask about is Mundra Port: Adani secured a contract connected with its development in 1995, helping drive the group’s infrastructure expansion.
