Lavish Rides Of The Billionaires: From Mukesh Ambani's Boeing Business Jet To Laxmi Mittal's Amevi

India’s billionaires consist of a close-knit community of Indian businessmen from the Ambanis to the Poonawallas, who do not show off their wealth on social media. Neither are they spotted drinking daiquiris at the beach, nor do they get papped on the runways of their private airports. However, they do exist as other normal individuals except for the fact that they flaunt their Birkins, Birkenstocks and a slew of other over-the-top luxury assets whenever they step out. Apart from that, they may have taken a salary cut, but they never cut short on their travel luxury.

Well, with so much wealth and ever-increasing income, the crazy rich Indians very well know how and where to spend it. So, naturally, the billionaires and their families own the most lavish yachts and private jets. With multi-crore turnovers and businesses across the globe, these luxurious rides are both a vanity and a necessity for these tycoons. Needless to say, the business moguls have a slew of swanky vehicles parked in their expansive garage. And the story is no different when it comes to flying either. Let's take a look at the most lavish jets and yachts these individuals own in the country and abroad.

According to the reports in Economic Times, Ratan Tata owns the lavish Dassault Falcon 2000 private. However, the most interesting part of his private jet is that he is also authorized to fly the luxurious aeroplane. The compact beast boasts a twin engine and was assembled by a group of expert French engineers. Ratan Tata’s love for aviation and luxurious assets is an open secret. Interestingly, he is perhaps one of the few billionaires in the world who not only owns a private jet but also flies it. A report in the Economic Times had stated:

“A lot of people know that Ratan Tata owns a Dassault Falcon 2000 private jet but, what they do not know is that since Tata is a trained pilot, he even flies his own private jet and other jets owned by the Tata group.”

#7. Amitabh Bachchan

One of the richest families of Tinseltown, the Bachchans have often been spotted getting in and out of the plushest private jets. And yet, just like other Indian celebrities, they have never stated if they own or rent these private planes while flying to and from location shoots. The net worth of the Bachchan family which boasts four superstars is roughly around Rs. 2,950 crores. And with that much wealth, Big B likes to travel in his own private jet, which had cost him around Rs. 260 crores. So, be it work commitment or a family getaway, he travels in style in his private jet with his family. Perhaps that's the reason why he doesn't make an appearance at the airport.

#8. Laxmi Mittal

Apart from swanky cars and sprawling homes, the luxe class of India surely enjoys travelling in extravagant rides between earth and heaven.
