Acclaimed Indian sculptor Anish Kapoor is set to be counted amongst UK's richest with a multimillion fortune.

The gifted artist, who moved from Mumbai to London in the early 1970s, was said to have grossed an estimated £40 million from his art.

The 55-year-old is set to be named in The Sunday Times Rich List as the first specialist sculptor when the 2010 edition comes out, reports Times Online.

The Turner prize-winner, whose work adorn squares from Chicago to Nottingham, will join esteemed artists such as Damien Hirst and Lucian Freud.

Kapoor is presently engaged in the world's largest commission, a £15 million series of sculptures known as the Tees Valley Giants for towns in England.
