Episode notes

You might not have heard of the Hinduja family, but with a net worth of over £35 billion, they topped the Sunday Times Rich List for six of the past 10 years.


The eldest two of four sons, Srichand and Gopichand were co-chairmen of the Hinduja Group - which always prided itself on being a family business. They brought billions to London and built the capital’s grandest hotel - the Owo - and their private home round the corner from Buckingham Palace is estimated to be worth over £300 million.


But after the death of the family patriarch, what will happen to their empire?


The Standard’s Feature Writer Claudia Cockerell joins us to discuss this Succession-style battle in the capital.
