Few weeks back Mukesh Ambani has surpassed Sunil Mittal to become the richest Indian. Though the net worth has shrunk significantly he is the richest Indian. Among the Ambani brothers, Mukesh is the quieter one with very rare public appearances and press releases. He always lets his actions speak. Be it owning a cricket team or a billion dollar home, Mukesh Ambani can do it with style.

Now Mukesh Ambani has one more thing to his kitty. He is ranked 6th in the list of world’s chemical kings. Mukesh Ambani owned Reliance Industries is one of the most valuable Indian company with a market capitalization of 176, 044 crore rupees.  It is a fortune 500 global company with a ranking of 206.

ICIS, a chemical community magazine has released  a list of top 40 chemical kings of the world. It is a list of the CEO’s and CMD’s guiding large petro chemical companies into an uncertain world of spiraling oil demand.
