Led by billionaire businessman Ajay Piramal, whose global business conglomerate spans pharmaceuticals, financial services, and real estate, his net worth stands at a staggering $4.2 billion (approximately Rs 34,898 crore). Son Anand Piramal, married to Isha Ambani, connects these two influential families. The Piramal Group reported a consolidated revenue of Rs 9087 crore for FY 2023.

Encore Healthcare's overall worth is approximately Rs 2000 crore.
In comparison, the Ambani patriarch, Mukesh Ambani, towers over with a real-time net worth of $113.2 billion (approximately Rs 9.4 lakh crore), securing his position as the richest person in India and the 11th richest globally. As the grand celebration unfolds, the question of the wealthiest in-law finds its answer in the Piramals, standing tall among the esteemed families associated with the Ambanis.
