Most successful people would attribute their success and wealth to their hard work. But could there be something else at play here? Perhaps, if joining the dates is anything to go by. People born under select Zodiac signs have been much luckier than others.

And needless to say the luckiest star this year has been Cancer – no prizes for guessing that it is Gautam Adani’s Zodiac sign. The IIFL Hurun list throws light on this aspect of the rich too. After Cancer, the next luckiest star signs are Virgo, Libra and Taurus for wealth creation.

Shiv Nadar of HCL Technologies and Benu Gopal Bangur of Shree Cements too are born under the same sign. Billionaires with Cancer as a star sign, saw their wealth increase by 35%, said the report. “People born under Cancer sign had a great year, almost doubling their wealth, followed by Geminis, Taurus and Pisces,” the report said.

Apart from the macro and micro economic factors, the stars too seem to have aligned for India’s richest this year. The cumulative wealth of 1,103 richest Indians in the IIFL Wealth Hurun India Rich List 2022 increased by 9%.

The unluckiest star signs are Gemini, Leo and Capricorn – as those in the rich list with these signs saw their wealth decrease by 1-4% in the last one year.
