Pharmaceuticals
With an astounding figure of 21 Billionaires and 18 other individual mentions in the list, pharma sector has registered the highest contribution to the list. In 2016, the sector witnessed a 17% growth in cumulative wealth compared to 2015. The number of individuals doubled. Although the growth in cumulative wealth is substantially driven by the performance of private players, it should be noted that the listed players fared poorly. For instance, in 2015 the listed players registered a 66% average growth in share price compared to 9% in 2016. The vaccine icon Cyrus S Poonawalla of Serum Institute of India elevated his position by 6 ranks and is now comfortably placed in Top 5.
FMCG
In 2016 when most sectors failed to keep up the momentum, FMCG registered a decent growth of 14% in terms of the cumulative wealth.
