In addition, the 34-year-old's own foundation, Young Indian Philanthropic Pledge (YIPP), works with entrepreneurs to donate at least 50% of their net worth to charitable causes.

Despite my age, I am committed to positively impacting the world and believe that the foundation's mission of creating a more equitable society aligns with my values and aspirations," according to Nikhil Kamath's letter of commitment.
