Reliance was founded by his late father Dhirubhai Ambani, a yarn trader, in 1966 as a small textile manufacturer. After his father's death in 2002, Ambani and his younger sibling Anil divvied up the family empire.

Ambani's three children joined the board of Reliance in 2023. Son Akash heads Jio; daughter Isha oversees retail and financial services; and younger son Anant is in the energy business.
In 2026, Ambani announced plans for an $110 billion investment on AI infrastructure to be built across the country over the next seven years.
During the Covid-19 lockdown, Ambani raised more than $20 billion selling a third of Jio to a string of investors, such as Facebook and Google.
Reliance owns Network18, a licensee of Forbes Media.
Ambani's U.S.-educated daughter Isha's marriage to fellow billionaire Ajay Piramal's son in 2018 drew 10,000 guests, including Hillary Clinton.
