How The Forbes List Is Compiled
Forbes India list is usually compiled using shareholding and financial information obtained from families and individuals, stock exchanges, analysts and India¡¯s regulatory agencies.

Public fortunes were calculated based on stock prices and exchange rates as of a particular date, whereas private companies are valued based on similar companies that are publicly traded. The list can also include foreign citizens with business, residential or other ties to the country, or citizens who don¡¯t reside in the country but have significant business or other ties to the country.
