Mukesh Ambani, Asia’s richest man, and his wife, Nita Ambani, live in the Antilia, one of the world’s most expensive private homes, valued at a staggering Rs 15000 crore (around USD 1.74 billion). But a recent affidavit filed in the Bombay High Court has claimed that the lavish 27-storey mansion was built on land that belonged to an orphanage, which was sold ‘illegally’ in 2005.

The affidavit submitted by Sandesh C Tadvi, joint secretary to the Minority Development Department and acting CEO of Maharashtra State Board of Wakfs, states that a ‘mischief’ was committed by the then chairman and CEO, when he ratified the sale of the orphanage land to Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani on March 9, 2025, Livelaw reported.

Notably, a Bombay High Court bench headed by Chief Justice Manjula Chellur, in an order dated July 21, 2017, had directed the State Board of Wakfs to clarify their stance on challenging the Charity commissioner’s permission on the sale of the orphanage land.
