Gurgaon, a hub of affluence and enterprise, boasts an impressive list of billionaires. Among them, Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal stands out with a net worth of Rs 9,300 crore, placing him firmly in the top echelons of Gurgaon’s wealthiest residents. However, despite this significant fortune, Goyal is not the richest person in the city. That title belongs to Nirmal Kumar Minda, the chairman and managing director of UNO Minda.
According to the Hurun India Rich List 2024, Nirmal Kumar Minda has an estimated net worth of Rs 30,800 crore (approximately USD 3.6 billion). This figure is more than triple the net worth of Deepinder Goyal, securing Minda’s position as the wealthiest individual in Gurgaon. His substantial fortune also places him as the 91st richest person in India.
Nirmal Kumar Minda, aged 66, is the driving force behind UNO Minda, an auto ancillary company that was originally established by his father, Shadilal Minda, in 1958. Minda joined the family business in 1977 and later led a significant expansion after parting ways with his brother in the 1990s. UNO Minda now manufactures a wide array of auto parts for cars and two-wheelers, cementing its place as a leader in the industry.
Minda is married to Suman Minda, who contributes to the community through her role as Chairperson of the Suman Nirmal Minda Foundation (SNMF), the CSR arm of UNO Minda.
