Murty<\/strong> took on the role of marketing director at a Dutch cleantech company called Tendris, where she worked for two years. Later, she ventured into the fashion industry, starting her own fashion label. Unfortunately, her fashion venture closed in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>In 2013, she became the director of a venture capital fund called Catamaran Ventures. Nisa, along with her husband Rishi Sunak, also set up the London branch of her father&#8217;s Indian firm, which is owned by N. R. Narayana Murthy. <strong>Sunak<\/strong> eventually transferred his shares to her just before he was elected as the Conservative MP for Richmond in 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2015, Nisa has held a 0.91% or 0.93% stake in her father&#8217;s technology company, Infosys, which was valued at around \u00a3700 million in April 2022. She also owns shares in two of Jamie Oliver&#8217;s restaurant businesses, Wendy&#8217;s in India, and Koro Kids. These investments have made her wealthier than Queen Elizabeth II as of April 2022 and wealthier than King Charles III as of October 2022.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, Nisa Murthy held a director position at Digme Fitness and also at Soroco, a digital transformation company co-founded by her brother Rohan Murty.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Akshata_Murty_Personal_Life\"><\/span>Akshata Murty Personal Life<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In August 2009,<strong> Natarajan Murty,<\/strong> an Indian citizen, tied the knot with Rishi Sunak, whom she met while studying at Stanford University in 2004.

This status allowed her to pay no tax on income earned outside of the UK, with just an annual payment of \u00a330,000. However, later that month, Murty made an announcement that she would voluntarily give up her non-domiciled status and start paying taxes in the UK on her worldwide income.<\/p>\n<p>By paying taxes in the UK while retaining her non-domiciliary status, she can benefit from a provision in a 1956 treaty designed to avoid double taxation for Indian citizens living in both India and the UK.<\/p>\n<p>This move garnered significant attention and discussion in the UK media.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Meet_Akshata_Murtys_Husband_Rishi_Sunak_and_her_Family_A_Peek_into_Their_Private_Life\"><\/span>Meet Akshata Murty&#8217;s Husband Rishi Sunak and her Family: A Peek into Their Private Life<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Rishi Sunak, the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the UK,<\/strong> and his wife Akshata Murty, share a loving family with two adorable daughters.
