Two years ago, when Rishabh Pant met a horrific road accident while driving to his hometown New Delhi, the prospect of making a comeback to international cricket seemed grim. He underwent multiple surgeries, and was bedridden for months, before he slowly began taking baby steps with the help of crutches. The road to regain full fitness was filled with challenges, both mental and physical, that many would not have dared to walk. But not Rishabh Pant, who slowly made his way to the Indian team, winning the T20 World Cup earlier this year. And now he has become the most expensive player in the history of the Indian Premier League, after Lucknow Super Giants acquired him for an astonishing sum of ₹27 crore. We take a look at how his net worth has swollen up after the IPL 2025 Auction. 

How Much Does Rishabh Pant Earn from IPL? 

One of the main reasons Rishabh Pant decided not to stay at Delhi Capitals was because he knew he would fetch a much higher price if he went to an auction. A proven match-winner with great leadership ability, Pant was a cynosure for all the teams that needed a new skipper. Lucknow Super Giants, who did not retain their captain KL Rahul, was in dire need of one, and they placed full faith in Pant by handing him a paycheck of ₹27 crore. 

How Much is Rishabh Pant’s Salary from BCCI? 

Rishabh Pant belongs to an exclusive group of all-format cricketers. Since he was away from the action for almost two years, he was pooled in Garde B of the annual retainership announced by BCCI in February. He gets an annual compensation of ₹3 crore, apart from match fees for every appearance. However, he is likely to be promoted to Grade A next year, as he has been a mainstay in the team. 

Rishabh Pant's Brand Endorsement 

As per The Economic Times, Pant's brand value is set to boost by 30% after he became the costliest player in the IPL. He currently charges ₹2-3 crore per year, and his rise in stocks on the field will now reflect off it, when he signs for new brands. He currently endorses notable brands like Adidas, JSW, Dream11, Zomato, Maggi, and Sun Pharma. 

Rishabh Pant's Investments 

Apart from being a marquee cricketer, Pant is also a shrewd investor, always on the hunt to put money into promising startups.

He has also invested in real estate properties in places like New Delhi, Uttarakhand, and Mumbai. His house in New Delhi, where he lives with his whole family, is valued at ₹2 crore.
