Net worth calculator

Your net worth is everything you own minus everything you owe. Fill in what applies below — every category that matters in India is here, including the ones people forget, like EPF and jewellery. {% if not user %}It's worked out in your browser: nothing you type is sent anywhere, including to us.{% endif %}

What you own

{% for r in asset_rows %} {% endfor %}
Total assets ₹0

What you owe

{% for r in liability_rows %} {% endfor %}
Total liabilities ₹0
Your net worth
₹0

Assets minus liabilities. Fill in anything above to start.

The net worth formula

Net worth = Assets − Liabilities

That's the whole of it. Every disagreement about someone's net worth is a disagreement about what goes on each side and what it's worth today — never about the arithmetic.

What counts as an asset

What counts as a liability

Four things that make the number wrong

  1. Subtracting the same loan twice. Entering a flat at "value minus the home loan" and then listing the home loan again is the most common error, and it can knock tens of lakhs off a real net worth. Count the property gross; subtract the loan once, on the other side.
  2. Using what you paid instead of what it's worth. Purchase price is history. Property, gold and equity all count at today's value — that's the entire point of the number.
  3. Counting the EMI as the debt. What you owe is the outstanding balance, not the monthly instalment and not the amount you originally borrowed.
  4. Leaving out EPF, PPF and jewellery. Illiquid isn't the same as not owned. For most salaried people in India the retirement balances alone are a large share of the total, and they're the most commonly forgotten line.

A worked example

Flat in Pune (market value today)₹1,10,00,000
Mutual funds and Indian equity₹42,00,000
EPF and PPF₹28,00,000
Bank balance and FDs₹9,00,000
Jewellery at today's gold rate₹6,00,000
Assets₹1,95,00,000
Home loan outstanding−₹37,00,000
Credit card outstanding−₹80,000
Liabilities−₹37,80,000
Net worth₹1,57,20,000

Note the flat is counted at ₹1.10 crore and the loan subtracted separately — not ₹73 lakh "net of the loan" with the loan also listed below.
