Matriarch of #JindalSteel, who took over her husband’s throne after his death in a helicopter crash in 2005, has seen her fortune rise by at least $12 billion in two years.

#SavitriJindal's net worth has more than tripled to $17.7 billion in 2022, from $4.8 billion in 2020. However, 2019 and 2020 weren’t good, as her net worth declined by almost 50% from $8.8 billion in 2018 to $5.9 billion in 2019 to $4.8 billion in 2020.
#SavitriJindal controls her husband's stake in the O.P. Jindal Group, share in each company will be transferred to the son heading it when she dies, according to exchange filings, reflecting her status as matriarch.
According to a @Forbes report, Jindal broke into the top 10 club for the first time with a net worth of $18 billion in 2021, up from $6.6 billion a year ago.
However, she has been the richest woman in India for a couple of years now.

#SavitriJindal never went to college. And didn’t even know how much her billionaire husband made, mostly because she never even asked.
Although she is the chairperson of the OP Jindal Group, the company is actually run by her four sons — Prithviraj, Sajjan, Ratan and Naveen.
