Widow Controls

But insiders wonder: will she wield control, or quietly defer to corporate counsel?

Zero Involvement

With ₹14 crore bonds and ₹10 lakh monthly payouts, the fortune looks distributed, but disconnected.

Sister Signal

Stock Shudder

Sona Comstar shares plunged 7% post-announcement. Investors weren’t just reacting to death—they were reacting to the sudden leadership void in a ₹10,300 crore personal empire.

Kapur Peak

[{"selector":"#anim-c86072a8-6021-4953-8f3a-cb7956859831 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-12.805439705219252%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] The reported ₹13,000 crore peak wasn’t a fluke—it came from aggressive global expansion and electric vehicle bets. But a quieter drop to ₹10,300 crore hints at possible hidden restructuring.

Legal Precision

But the exact management of the ₹10,300 crore net worth may involve complex trust structures still undisclosed.

Publicly Private

Legacy Math
