Ambani wrote in the annual report: "We now rank in the top 100 profitable companies in the Fortune Global 500 list of ‘World’s Largest Corporations’. We delivered a solid performance in our hydrocarbons businesses despite the volatile oil price environment and incremental capacities in some of our product categories. Consumer businesses witnessed phenomenal growth in terms of revenues and profitability, with Reliance Retail and Jio now collectively contributing nearly 25% of consolidated segment EBITDA. According to Forbes, Ambani is currently the 13th richest man in the world with a total wealth of $50.7 billion."
