Gopichand Hinduja, the billionaire head of Britain’s richest family, has died aged 85.

Hinduja died on Tuesday in London after a long illness, a spokesperson said.

The low-profile Hinduja family topped the Sunday Times Rich List this year with a collective net worth of £35.3bn, thanks to their sprawling business interests across banking, oil, real estate and entertainment.
