He is in the 5th position in the Forbes list of the richest persons in the world. While reading his profile in the website of Forbes, I really became impressed with his accomplishments. Lakshmi Mittal is from India and he studied in St Xavier's College Calcutta but in the world economy, he is literally 'the man of steel'. Last year, in the lsit of billionaires in Forbes, he was in the third position. Lakshmi Mittal knows to strike when the iron is hot and in the website of his company, you can find a list of the acquisitions of other steel companies, he has made so far since 1989.
These days, Lakshmi Mittal is coming in the media frequently for his $25 billion bid for Arcelor. If he can capture Arcelor then his top position in the steel world will further be solidified.
Lakshmi Mittal is very famous and respected in India. Many Indians see him as a role model and they feel proud of his accomplishment.
