Satish is married to Tabinda Sanpal, who holds a formal education in Business and finance. Tabinda is also a businesswoman and financial strategist, actively supporting and contributing to the couple's ventures. Together, they symbolize the next-generation Indian diaspora making significant strides in Dubai's high-end real estate and luxury service markets.
From Humble Beginnings to Billionaire Status
In a candid interview with
National News
, Satish spoke about his modest beginnings. He disclosed that he left formal education after the eighth grade and entered the business world at just 15 years old. With ₹50,000 borrowed from his mother, he launched a small grocery shop, which he operated for two years before facing financial loss.
Undeterred, he pivoted to the stock market, working as a commission-based introducer between investors and brokers. He eventually moved to Dubai, seeking better opportunities. Sanpal emphasized that he has never worked under anyone and has always possessed a strong entrepreneurial spirit. His current personal net worth is estimated to be around Rs 500 crore, as per
UAE Sigma.
A Life of Luxury and Celebration
Satish Sanpal is widely recognized for his love of luxury and his larger-than-life lifestyle. His affinity for high-end automobiles is well known. In 2023, he gifted himself a Bugatti Chiron worth RS 35 crore. Earlier in June, he celebrated his son Lakshya Sanpal by gifting him a white Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II Black Badge SUV. The recent pink Phantom given to Isabella is believed to be worth £500,000, or Rs 5.8 crore and considering the unique modifications, the final price could be even higher, according to
The Sun.
Beyond business and cars, Satish enjoys Bollywood culture. In February, he threw a lavish party for Isabella's first birthday. The star-studded affair featured performances by Atif Aslam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, with appearances by Tamannaah Bhatia and the Dubai Bling cast. Nora Fatehi added glamour with her electrifying dance moves, making the event a grand celebration fit for a billionaire's daughter.

NACL, a listed entity, operates in the agro-chemical sector. It offers crop protection products and active ingredients. "The proposed combination comprises acquisition of certain equity shares in NACL Industries Ltd (NACL) by Coromandel International Ltd (CIL)," the Competition Commission of India (CCI) said in a release. CIL is a leading agri solutions provider. It operates in two major segments, nutrient and other allied businesses and crop protection. "CCI approves acquisition of certain equity shares in NACL Industries Limited by Coromandel International Ltd," the regulator said in a post on X. In March this year, Coromandel International announced the acquisition of a majority -- 53 per cent -- stake in NACL Industries Ltd for Rs 820 crore. The company also said that it proposes to make an open offer to the public to acquire up to 26 per cent of the equity share capital in agro-chemical firm NACL Industries, as per the Sebi takeover rules. A share purchase agreement has been signed amongst Coromandel International, NACL Industries, the seller (KLR Products Ltd), K Lakshmi Raju (being a promoter) and Bright Town Investment Advisor (being a member of the promoter/promoter group of NACL), Coromandel International said.

Cabinet approves Employment-Linked Incentive scheme to support formal job generation
With an objective to boost employment generation in formal sectors, especially in manufacturing, the Union Cabinet approved the Employment Linked Incentive (ELI) scheme on Tuesday. The scheme, which was announced in the Union Budget for 2024-25, presented in July 2024, has an outlay of Rs 99,446 crore and aims to create 3.5 crore jobs over two years. The Union Cabinet, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, approved the ELI scheme to 'support employment generation, enhance employability and social security across all sectors, with special focus on the manufacturing sector', an official statement said. Information & Broadcasting Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the ELI will be focussed on the manufacturing sector and will have two parts — part A for first timers and part B for sustained employment. Part A of the scheme focuses on first-time employees by providing them a wage subsidy of up to one month's wage, up to a maximum amount of Rs 15,000, while Part B of the scheme has incentives for employers to create additional employment. Out of the total 3.5 crore employees expected to benefit from the scheme, around 1.92 crore persons are seen to be first-timers entering the workforce. Targeting first-time employees registered with the Employees' Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO), Part A will offer one-month EPF wage up to Rs 15,000 in two instalments. 'Employees with salaries up to Rs 1 lakh will be eligible. The first instalment will be payable after six months of service and the second instalment will be payable after 12 months of service and completion of a financial literacy programme by the employee. To encourage the habit of saving, a portion of the incentive will be kept in a savings instrument of deposit account for a fixed period and can be withdrawn by the employee at a later date,' the statement said. Part B of the scheme is for generating additional employment in all sectors, with a special focus on the manufacturing sector. The employers will get incentives for employees with salaries up to Rs 1 lakh. 'The government will incentivise employers, up to Rs 3,000 per month, for two years, for each additional employee with sustained employment for at least six months. For the manufacturing sector, incentives will be extended to the third and fourth years as well,' the statement said. For EPF wage slab of additional employee up to Rs 10,000, an incentive of Rs 1,000 will be given to the employer; for wage slab of over Rs 10,000 and up to Rs 20,000, a benefit of Rs 2,000 will be given; and for wage over Rs 20,000 (up to salary of Rs 1 lakh/month), an incentive of Rs 3,000 will be provided. Establishments, which are registered with EPFO, will be required to hire at least two additional employees (for employers with less than 50 employees) or five additional employees (for employers with 50 or more employees), on a sustained basis for at least six months, it said. All payments to the first-time employees under Part A of the scheme will be made through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode. Payments to the employers under Part B will be made directly into their PAN-linked accounts. The duration of the scheme will be for two years from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027. The ELI scheme was first announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in Budget 2024-25 as part of the Prime Minister's Package for Employment and Skilling that had a Budget outlay of Rs 2 lakh crore.
