Sunjay Kapur's Billion-Dollar Net Worth vs the Kapoor Dynasty—Who's Richer?

Sunjay Kapur, an industrialist and Karisma Kapoor's former husband, is the Chairman of Sona Comstar, a global player in electric vehicles and automotive components. Under his direction, the company expanded into five countries and was successfully taken public through an initial public offering. His wealth is even more than Shah Rukh Khan's! Needless to say, this speaks volumes about how successful he has become in the corporate world.

Sunjay, who was worth $1.2 billion ( ₹10,300 crore) in June 2025, according to Forbes. In FY25, Sona Comstar generated revenue of ₹35.5 billion, 36% of which came from EV components. With more than 5,000 employees and facilities in India, China, the United States, Mexico and Serbia, Sunjay's empire trades in precision, not puffery.

The Kapoor Empire: Bollywood Royalty, Smaller Fortune

The Kapoors are one of Bollywood's most famous dynasties. From Prithviraj Kapoor to Kareena, Ranbir, and Karisma, they have created a dynasty like no other. But in monetary terms, they're poor relations of Sunjay.

According to NDTV, the Kapoor family has a joint net worth of ₹2,000 crore. Here's what we know:

• Karisma Kapoor Net Worth & Salary: Karisma Kapoor has an estimated net worth of $ 12 million.

• No official separate shares have been disclosed for Ranbir or Kareena Kapoor, who earn money from movies and brand endorsements.

For all its decades of stardom, the Kapoor wealth is peanuts when compared to industrial billionaires such as Sunjay.

Who Comes Out Richer?

In what could probably be the most unlikely comparison, Sunjay Kapur is richer than the entire Kapoor Khandaan combined. The businessman, once connected to Bollywood through marriage, is now richer than members of the film industry as a whole clan.

It's a small, quiet, financially savvy one.

The Kapoor clan has a history of fame to fall back on, but their combined fortunes can't rival the multi-billion-dollar empire of the Sunjay Kapur. Although they have been masters of the silver screen, it is out of the spotlight that Sunjay has conquered the global auto industry with precision and foresight.

His success is a reminder of how business can surpass Bollywood and demonstrate that real wealth is not always in the limelight. Sunjay Kapur is the richer man, not just in numbers, but in strategic thinking and global impact.
