Gandhinagar – Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s net worth has seen a marginal rise since last year, according to the latest declaration. The prime minister’s website shows his net worth has surged by INR 22 lakh, bringing it to INR 3.07 crore from last year’s INR 2.85 crore.
During the term of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, it was declared that all Union Ministers will have to voluntarily proclaim their assets as well as liabilities at the end of each financial year, for greater public transparency.
Bank Balance
The declaration on the website of the 71-year-old prime minister shows he has a bank balance of INR 1,52,480 and INR 36,900 in cash. The rise in worth is mainly attributed to his Fixed Deposits (FDs) in the Gandhinagar branch of SBI (State Bank of India) that amounts to INR 1.86 crore as of March 31. Last year its value was INR 1.6 crore.
Investments
Prime Minister Modi doesn’t have any exposure to the stock market. His investments are in form of NSC (National Savings Certificate) amounting to INR 8.9 lakh, life insurance policies of INR 1.5 lakh, and L&T infrastructure bonds that he bought for INR 20,000 in 2012.
