Anant Ambani’s soon to be wife Radhika Merchant is the daughter of Indian billionaire, Viren Merchant. The 58-year-old business tycoon is the CEO of Encore Healthcare Private Limited. 

Besides being the CEO of Encore Healthcare, Viren Merchant is also the director of many big companies in India, including Encore Business Centre Private Limited, Encore Natural Polymers Private Limited, ZYG Pharma Private Limited, Sai Darshan Business Centres Private Limited, and Encore Polyfrac Products Private Limited. However, despite having such mammoth wealth, the business tycoon is not often in the headlines because he prefers to keep his personal and professional lives under the wraps.

Talking about Radhika Merchant’s father Viren Merchant’s net worth, it is reportedly around Rs 750 crores. Viren Merchant’s wife and Radhika Merchant’s mother Shaila Merchant is also a successful entrepreneur.
