millionaires, respectively.
For Maharashtra, the report highlighted a 194%
growth in the number of millionaires since 2021, attributing this trend to the
state’s entrepreneurial spirit, financial capital and the growing number of
corporates.
For Delhi, the report noted that the capital’s
status as a political and commercial center attracts wealth.
Tamil Nadu’s rise has been linked
to the state’s increase in number of companies, establishing it as an
industrial hub.
