5 Outrages Purchases by Indian Billionaires
The talk of extravagance is incomplete without mentioning the liquor baron Vijay Mallya. His property in Delhi is done in a rich gold Moroccan theme. He placed the winning bid of $2,86,440 for the sword of Tipu Sultan at an auction in London and brought it back to India. But the most costliest is the Formula One team. The list of his possessions runs long. Not only does he own a scotch whiskey brewery, a Formula One racing team and an airline, some of Mahatma Gandhi's personal belongings. He picked up the Royal Challengers Bangalore cricket team at an auction paying $111.6 million.
