According to a report by Hurun and IDFC First, India’s top 200 companies of self-made entrepreneurs created wealth to the tune of ₹30 lakh crore – that’s equivalent to the GDP of Denmark. Founded at the start of the millennium, Radhakrishna Damani’s DMart sits at the top of the list with a value of ₹2.3 lakh crore. It’s followed by Flipkart created by Binny Bansal and Sachin Bansal. The rest of the top-10 list is dominated by startups like Zomato, Swiggy, Dream11, Razorpay and more. The only exception being Max Healthcare Institute founded in 2001. Beyond the top 10 too, the list is dominated by startups be it Ola, Oyo, <keyword id="7290363" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="daily-hunt" source="Orion">Daily Hunt</keyword>, Meesho, Udaan, <keyword id="1518229" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="lenskart" source="Orion">Lenskart</keyword> and more. Most of them were started in the early or mid-2010s with digital and new-age businesses like fintechs, app-driven business D2C brands and more. V Vaidyanathan MD &amp; CEO of IDFC FIRST Bank said that India is developing a modern digital architecture, which is a marvel of the world. “This economic progress naturally offers opportunities for entrepreneurship and wealth creation,” he added. The other sector, apart from digital businesses, which features heavily in the list is pharma and healthcare with Global Health, Laurus Labs, <keyword id="2749903" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="molbio-diagnostics" source="Orion">Molbio Diagnostics</keyword> and Anthem Biosciences. Young wealth creator profile: Engineer with an IIT degree The average age of the entrepreneurs in the list is 44, and a third of the 405 founders featured in the list are under 40. “We are particularly proud to highlight the presence of 32 founders born in the 1990s and 20 women entrepreneurs, reflecting the diversity and inclusivity of India's entrepreneurial ecosystem,” said Anas Rahman Junaid, founder &amp; managing director of Hurun India. The pedigree of founders is also interesting as over half of the entrepreneurs — over 200 of them, are engineers. Around 82 of them are from the IITs of Delhi, Mumbai and Kharagpur. Doctors and chartered accountants are other popular professional degrees, though their number is very low at seven and ten, respectively.
