Elon Musk: The richest person on Earth
Leading the list is tech mogul Elon Musk, with an estimated net worth of $419.4 billion. Musk, who owns and runs Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and social media platform X (formerly Twitter), is currently the wealthiest individual in the world.

Meanwhile, Gautam Adani, chairman of the Adani Group, is worth $60.6 billion. His company operates in sectors like infrastructure, energy, and logistics, making him one of India's most influential businessmen.
