In the vast landscape of the Ambani family, Mukesh Ambani, Anil Ambani, and the legacy of Dhirubhai Ambani often take center stage, overshadowing the presence of the lesser-known siblings, Deepti Salgaocar and Nina Kothari.
Today, we delve into the life of Vikram Salgaoncar, the son of Deepti and Dattaraj Salgaocar, who stands as the eldest cousin to Isha, Anant, and Akash Ambani and is the grandson of the visionary Dhirubhai Ambani.
Vikram’s roots trace back to the VM Salgaocar Group of Companies, a family enterprise deeply engaged in sectors such as iron ore, coal, and wind energy.
Currently serving as the director of VM Salgaocar Hotels and Resorts Private Limited, Vikram embarked on his professional journey in 2007 as an associate with McKinsey & Company. Later, he assumed the role of Business Development Manager at Reliance Entertainment.
A proud alumnus of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School with a degree in BBA, Vikram manages diverse business interests in both the United States and India.
In the Salgaocar family’s business endeavors, Deepti Salgaocar, wife of Dattaraj Salgaocar, made significant contributions by founding ‘Sunaparanta.’
This cultural institution, aimed at preserving Goa’s rich heritage and culture, benefits from Deepti’s leadership as the vice-chairperson and advisory board member. Vikram Salgaoncar, thus, emerges as a dynamic member of the Ambani family, contributing to the family’s legacy through his diverse professional engagements and commitment to cultural preservation.
