Mukesh Ambani
An Indian Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) commando - part of the security detail guarding Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani - runs at the entrance to the venue of the company's annual general meeting in Mumbai on June 6, 2013. India's largest private firm Reliance Industries plans to invest 1.5 trillion rupees (USD26 billion) in all its businesses over the next three years, its chairman Mukesh Ambani told shareholders. Reliance is India's largest private oil and gas explorer with a strong presence in the petrochemicals and polyester sectors and has expanded into the fast-growing broadband and retail segments in recent years. Since April 2013, the Indian government has provided the country's richest man Mukesh Ambani, head of energy giant Reliance Industries, with full-time security from armed commandos.

We will be embarking on this investment, the largest we have ever undertaken, in all our five businesses simultaneouslyMore quotes »
