In a dazzling display of opulence, India’s wealthiest tycoon, Mukesh Ambani, has given his security detail a swanky makeover. Shaadi.com co-founder Manish Jain recently shared snapshots of the high-end convoy, featuring Range Rover Vogues and Mercedes-AMG G 63s, all lined up outside Ambani’s extravagant private residence, Antilia. This towering edifice on Altamount Road in Mumbai, valued at a staggering INR 16,574 crore, stands as the world’s priciest private dwelling.
Whispers in the high society corridors hint at an impending vehicular revolution, with Ambani considering swapping the current fleet for the ultra-luxurious Rolls-Royce Cullinan. Given that he already boasts ownership of around five Cullinans, it’s anyone’s guess when these might join the ranks of his security fleet.
The Ambani security brigade currently zooms around in five Range Rover Vogues and four Mercedes-AMG G 63s, a significant upgrade from the earlier issued Land Rover Discovery Sport. With the Range Rover Vogue priced at an on-road INR 2.75 crore and the G 63 nudging close to INR 3 crore, it’s clear that no expense is spared in safeguarding the billionaire.
Gone are the days of the humble Mahindra Bolero, once the staple of Ambani’s security team. These vehicles simply couldn’t keep pace with Ambani’s own fleet of powerful personal cars, necessitating periodic upgrades to match the industrialist’s ever-evolving garage. Speaking of which, Ambani’s personal collection is a staggering ensemble of over 300 cars, showcasing his penchant for variety and luxury.
Mukesh Dhirubhai Ambani, the man behind this vehicular extravagance, is a renowned Indian billionaire businessman, the chairman and managing director of Reliance Industries, India’s most valuable company by market value. With an estimated net worth of $92 billion as of December 2023, he stands as the richest person in Asia and the 15th wealthiest globally.
