Business Tycoons and their dream houses

When it comes to Indian business tycoons, it is inevitable that they will own a luxury home, in many cases, more than one. This is due to the fact that they amass an immense fortune.

While pricey cars are one thing to go for, a house is what defines them as it gives an indication of their personality.

As well as owning large homes in India, many business tycoons have multiple homes located across the world. They go to stay at their other properties when travelling to these locations. As expected, all of these homes are at the pinnacle of luxury to meet their grand expectations.
