Gautam Adani's wealth rises by $5.6 billion amid market rally

Billionaire Gautam Adani's net worth surged by $5.6 billion following a market rally prompted by the Supreme Court hearing on the Hindenburg report-related matter. The court reserved its verdict on allegations of corporate fraud against the Adani Group, noting that it won't solely rely on media reports. Adani is now ranked 20th on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a fortune of $65.8 billion. Additionally, Adani Group stocks gained about $9.8 billion in market value, driven by market optimism after the ruling party's victory in state elections.
