How much is Katrina Kaif Worth? Katrina Kaif Net Worth in 2026

By the Alux Research Team. How we estimate net worth

Katrina Kaif’s net worth is estimated at $25 million (about ₹236 crore) as of November 2026. Her makeup line now matters more than any film she could sign. Company filings show she owns 41.5% of Kay Beauty, which booked ₹132.4 crore of revenue in FY25 (the year to March 2025), and by our math that stake is worth more than ten of her film fees.

Country	India (British citizen)

How much is Katrina Kaif worth in 2026?

About $25 million, converted at ₹93.91 per dollar, the rupee’s close on November 6, 2026, a market report shows. Her Kay Beauty shareholding and her Nykaa purchase are on the record. The value of a private beauty company and her savings from 23 years of films are not, so the total leans on our assumptions. Her husband Vicky Kaushal’s earnings are not counted.

How we got to $25 million

Source	Our estimate	What it rests on
41.5% of Kay Beauty	$13.3 million (₹124.5 crore)	We value the company at ₹300 crore, our assumption: about 2.3 times its FY25 revenue and 27 times its ₹11 crore profit. Sales have grown since.
Nykaa shares	$2.3 million (₹21.5 crore)	About 1 lakh shares bought for ₹2.04 crore before the 2021 listing, six times as many after the 2022 bonus, at ₹359.70 on November 9, 2026. We assume she still holds them.
Savings from films and endorsements	$9.6 million (₹90 crore)	Our assumption: about ₹225 crore earned before tax since 2003, 40% kept after tax and living costs. It includes her homes, for which we opened no purchase record.
Total	$25 million	₹236 crore, $25.1 million before rounding.

The 41.5% that outweighs her films

Kay Beauty launched in 2019 as a joint venture with Nykaa. In FY25 its revenue rose 50% to ₹132.4 crore from ₹88.3 crore, while profit slipped to ₹11 crore from ₹11.3 crore as marketing spend doubled, StartupPedia reported from Registrar of Companies filings. The same filings show the owners: Nykaa with 50.99%, Kaif with 41.5% and her management firm, Matrix India Entertainment Consultants, with 7.5%.

The next year was bigger. Sales at retail prices reached ₹350 crore in FY26, up 46% from ₹240 crore, D2C Insider reported in July 2026. That gross figure counts the retail price of what was sold, so it runs well above the revenue the company books.

Our calculation on why the stake matters: 41.5% of the ₹11 crore profit is about ₹4.6 crore a year, less than half of one film fee. The money is in the shares. At our ₹300 crore company value her slice is ₹124.5 crore, the same as more than ten films at the ₹10 to ₹12 crore she has been reported to charge.

A Nykaa bet that went flat after day one

Before Nykaa went public she also bought into the company itself, paying ₹2.04 crore. On listing day, November 10, 2021, those shares were worth ₹22 crore, Editorji reported. The stock closed that day at ₹2,205.80 on the NSE, per Chittorgarh’s IPO data.

Nykaa then issued five bonus shares for each one held in 2022. Our math: ₹2,205.80 divided by six is about ₹367.60 in post-bonus terms, and the stock stood at ₹359.70 on November 9, 2026, Upstox data shows. That is about 2% below the listing-day close. If she still owns them, the stake is worth about ₹21.5 crore: ten times her money, all of it made before the first day of trading ended.

The films that paid for it

She made her debut in Boom in 2003. Her biggest hits are Tiger Zinda Hai (2017), which passed ₹560 crore worldwide, and Dhoom 3 (2013), at ₹542 crore, her biography records. Tiger 3 in 2023 passed ₹460 crore, and her most recent film is Merry Christmas (2024).

In 2023 her fee was put at ₹10 to ₹12 crore a film, with ₹15 to ₹21 crore reported for Tiger 3, ₹6 to ₹7 crore per brand endorsement and about ₹1 crore per sponsored Instagram post, BollywoodShaadis reported, citing other media. Lux, Lakmé, L’Oréal and Slice have all used her face.

Why other estimates disagree

Public estimates run from about ₹224 crore upward. That low figure comes from 2023, before Kay Beauty’s revenue jumped. Higher ones tend to treat Kay Beauty’s gross sales as if they were its value, or credit her with the whole company rather than 41.5%.

What would move the figure

A sale or new funding round at Kay Beauty would replace our ₹300 crore guess with a real price, and every ₹100 crore change in its value moves her stake by ₹41.5 crore. Nykaa’s share price moves the smaller holding. She has no film release dated in the pages we opened.
