Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani recently bought a $150 million Boeing BBJ 737 Max 9 to use as a private jet.
The ultra-long-range business jet is the first of its kind to be delivered in India.
Although the aircraft has a starting price of around $118, cabin customization and other modifications can increase the cost.
The business jet made its way to Delhi, India on August 27 and will soon be relocated to Mumbai where the entire Ambani family resides.

As one of Asia’s richest men, Ambani has no shortage of funds to customize his private business jet.
So far, the interior of the aircraft has been customized in Switzerland.
Even the exterior of the plane also features a special livery that combines white, navy blue, and gold.
There’s also a logo of the Indian billionaire’s conglomerate, Reliance Industries on the tailfin of the plane.
With the addition of the Boeing BBJ 737 Max 9, the number of private jets in Reliance’s fleet became ten.
