Another Indian businessman from Dubai has been handed a 10-year residency visa.

Dr. Ram Buxani, chairman of ITL Cosmos Group, and his wife Veena Ram Buxani were given the long-term residency permit on Sunday.

Buxani moved to the UAE nearly 60 years ago and grew into a successful entrepreneur with a current net worth of more than AED300 million.
