On Nov. 19, India's newspapers carried front-page reports that Mukesh Ambani, the 47-year-old son of Dhirubhai and the chairman of Reliance Industries, the group's flagship petrochemicals and oil venture, had admitted to "ownership issues" at the company, which he and younger brother Anil, the vice chairman, had been running since their father's death in July 2002. For four days speculation ran amok in the Indian press that the brothers had started sparring over control of Reliance. On Nov. 22, Mukesh issued a statement saying that his words had been...

...last year over its ability to enter the cell-phone market via a side door, without having to pay the high fees required of government-sanctioned operators. Despite the controversy, Reliance paid a $116 million penalty--which its critics said was a bargain--and continued to grab market share. Mukesh says he's determined to keep Reliance growing. His father demonstrated that Indian companies can be modern, vital and competitive. The sons have picked up the torch. "People will remember you after you are gone not for your money or your power," Mukesh says, "but because of what you have...
