Top 100 / Top 200 / Top 500 / Top 1,000 richest people in India — how to approach these lists
- Top 100 richest people in India: Often published by Forbes (India) and local business media — these lists profile detailed net worths, sectors, and city of residence; they’re updated annually. 7
- Top 200 & Top 500 lists: Larger lists (Top 200 / Top 500) are typically compiled by Hurun, Forbes special reports or national business magazines. They provide broader coverage and include newly minted billionaires from startups and family fortunes. 8
- Top 1,000 richest people in India: Very long lists are rare specifically for India (Top 1,000) — global lists from Hurun or Forbes may be filtered for Indians to produce long-tail rankings. For site performance and readability, we recommend publishing a Top-100 table on the main page and a paginated Top-500 / Top-1,000 downloadable CSV for power users.
Top 500 richest people in India — net worth in rupees
If you want "Top 500 richest person in India in rupees" specifically, the recommended approach is: 1. Pull the USD net worths from Forbes / Hurun / Bloomberg feeds. 9 2. Convert to INR with the live FX rate on publish day (we used ₹88.79 for the sample values above). 10 3. Publish a downloadable CSV and an interactive table (search + sort by net worth, city, sector).
