Speaking at the launch, Satya Narayan Bansal, CEO Barclays Private Clients, said “Wealth creation in India is growing at an unprecedented pace, and the time it takes to accumulate wealth is shorter than ever before."

“We are seeing the rise of a New India, characterized by younger millionaires, innovative businesses and new business models. A number of the new entrants and top gainers on the list are first generation entrepreneurs. This is a great testament to the improved business opportunities and entrepreneurial acumen in the country. We see a new class of serial entrepreneurs slowly emerging as they encash their current businesses and look for next generation businesses. There is increasing awareness for social impact businesses and philanthropy, although we have a lot more ground to cover here,” Satya added.
