NRI Jayshree Ullal, President and CEO of Arista Networks, has emerged as the wealthiest professional manager worldwide. According to the newly released Hurun India Rich List 2025, Ullal’s net worth has surged past that of household names like Microsoft’s Satya Nadella and Alphabet’s Sundar Pichai, signaling the massive value potential of equity-heavy leadership in the cloud infrastructure sector.
Ullal, who has led the cloud networking firm Arista Networks for over 17 years, now commands a net worth estimated at $5.7 billion (approximately ₹50,170 crore). While the global spotlight often fixates on the leaders of consumer-facing giants like Google and Microsoft, the financial rankings tell a different story in 2025.
Rather than being driven mainly by executive compensation, Ullal’s rise reflects the impact of long-term equity ownership. Strong performance in the cloud and AI networking space has lifted Arista Networks’ market value in recent years, directly contributing to the sharp increase in her personal fortune and reshaping the latest wealth standings.
