Meet Dhirubhai Ambani's ‘third son', owns a house near Antilia, left his company to join Reliance, he is..., Mukesh Ambani is...
In the glitzy realm of billionaires and boardrooms, the spotlight often shines on the faces at the top. However, behind any influential business empire are often unsung heroes whose contribution helps lay the foundation of that empire. One of those heroes is a childhood friend and trusted adviser to Mukesh Ambani, who has been a silently powerful ally to Reliance's success. So integral has his role been that many even call him the 'third son' of Dhirubhai Ambani. In this article, we are talking about Anand Jain, Mukesh Ambani's longtime friend from school. Anand and Mukesh went to school together at Hill Grange High School, Mumbai, where they shared a bond for almost 25 years. Anand was closely attached to the entire Ambani family, especially Dhirubhai Ambani, and this relationship wasn't just cordial—Anand's loyalty to the family was so strong that he gave up his own business in Delhi to return to Mumbai and join Mukesh Ambani in building Reliance Industries. Anand Jain has been instrumental in the growth of Reliance Industries in several verticals, such as real estate, telecom, and finance. Interestingly, media reports suggest that despite his significant contributions to the company's growth, he never accepted a salary for his efforts. Before exploring Anand Jain's connection with the Ambani family, it is important first to note his important position in the Indian business environment. Jain is the chairman for Jai Corp Limited, and was identified as the 11th richest person on the Forbes India 2007 list of 40 richest people. Jain is well known for his extensive knowledge in interests related to real estate and financial services. Beyond his position in Mukesh Ambani's business empire, Anand Jain is also an accomplished entrepreneur. He has over 30 years of experience in real estate, capital markets, and finance and is the chairman of Jai Corp Limited. He has invested in approximately 33 different projects across 14 cities in India. Currently, his net worth is estimated at around $525 million. Carrying the legacy forward, his son, Harsh Jain, also owns an empire. He is a co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Dream11 and Groww. Dream 11 is India's premier sports platform and is now a million-dollar company, having tied up with A-List cricketers such as Rohit Sharma, MS Dhoni, and Hardik Pandya.
