It is for the first time that three Indians have made it to the list. Shriram, an early investor in Google, is ranked 258 on the list.
Here is the Details about Him
Rank:258

Education:
Schooled in Madras, India; created shop bot Junglee. Sold to Amazon in 1998. Later backed tech outfits Yodlee, 24/7 Customer, Plaxo, Zazzle.com. Bubble era taught him to adapt: "Living in a world where everything is changing constantly, you learn to change." Views self as "Sherpa" investor rather than angel because it makes him feel more like a guide than a checkbook. Early investor, board member of Google. Sold $400 million in Google stock at offering, still owns 3.4 million shares worth $960 million.
Other who surprised me is Amar Gopal Bose who is the CEO of BOSE Inc. which I believe the costliest Music systems in the Market, is known for high-end audio equipment and dedication to research.
