Savitri Jindal, the matriarch of the OP Jindal Group and an MLA in Haryana, is now the richest woman in India, according to the Forbes Billionaire List 2025. With a net worth of $35.5 billion, she has secured the third spot among India’s wealthiest, trailing Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani.<\/p>\n

She is the only woman among India’s top 10 billionaires.<\/p>\n

The Jindal Group Chairperson’s empire spans steel, power, cement, and infrastructure. The company was founded by her late husband, Om Prakash Jindal, who died in a helicopter crash in 2005. Following his death, the business was divided among their four sons.<\/p>\n

Her Mumbai-based son, Sajjan Jindal, leads JSW Steel, JSW Cement, and JSW Paints, and took JSW Infrastructure public in 2023. In 2024, he expanded into electric vehicles by acquiring a 35 per cent stake in MG Motor India, a subsidiary of China’s SAIC Motor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
