On the advent of Jio, Mukesh Ambani turned the tables of the telecommunication sector and is now set to embark his journey in real estate.
Reliance Industries will be setting up a mega city in Navi Mumbai and according to Business Standard, Ambani's megacity will be developed on the lines of Singapore. It will have airport, port and sea link connectivity. Once completed, the city will accommodate over half a million inhabitants and thousands of businesses. It will be as promising as Jio and is expected to draw $75 billion in investments over the next ten years.
