Neeraj Chopra, a name that is enough to describe India’s javelin story. The two-time Olympic gold medalist is not only performing wonders on the field but also seeing his off-field valuation grow significantly. Although he fell short of defending his gold medal from Tokyo 2020, the ace javelin thrower gave his season-best with a throw of 89.45 meters, securing the silver medal in Paris Games. According to many reports, Neeraj Chopra’s valuation is set to skyrocket from $29.6 million to over $40 million, which is approximately ₹330 crore in Indian rupees. This means his valuation is expected to see a substantial surge of 40-50%.
Neeraj Chopra net worth
It is noteworthy to add that Neeraj Chopra’s estimated net worth is ₹37 crore ($4.5 million USD). However, as mentioned earlier, this is expected to increase significantly. He is also a Junior Commissioned Officer in the Indian Army, earning a total of ₹30 lakh per month. According to many sources, he is currently one of the highest-paid Indian athletes.
Speaking more about Neeraj, he himself once said that the best is yet to come when it comes to taking charge in javelin. The 26-year-old, who has been a top-tier ambassador for globally renowned brands such as VISA, Samsung, Omega, Under Armour, Coca-Cola, Britannia, and Bharat Petroleum, among others, is surely targeting the 2028 Olympics. With his skyrocketing brand value, he is set to build even more success in the coming times.
