Vikas Rambal came to Australia from India on a prospective business trip in 2000. But the project he was looking into was not what it seemed.

On this week’s episode of How I Made It, Rich List editor Yolanda Redrup finds out how a scam and a chance encounter set about the Perdaman Group founder’s dream to build the country’s largest fertiliser plant.
