Rohit Sharma Net Worth 2024: Earnings, Brand Endorsements, Real Estate, Car and Bike Collection

Rohit Sharma is a name synonymous with sixes, languid elegance, resilience and humor. The Mumbaikar has established himself as one of the best batsmen in world cricket and his numbers do the talking for him. Right from his debut for India in the 2007 T20 World Cup, Rohit proved that he was here to dominate the big occasion, scoring a half-century against South Africa to lead India’s charge into the semi-finals.

Since then, Rohit’s stock has always been on the rise and the Hitman has come out on top when the occasion demands it, as a batsman, then as an opener, then as the captain of the highly successful Mumbai Indians franchise and now, as the captain of the Indian national team. 

The Hitman’s success on the field has led to him building a passionate fanbase of it. This has led to the big brands reaching out to him with the big bucks. Today, Rohit stands among the highest paid cricketers and sportspersons in the country. So let’s take a look at Rohit Sharma’s net worth, what are the brands that call him the face of their brand and how much does he make both on and off-the-field. 

ROHIT SHARMA: CAREER IN NUMBERS 

It was 2013, when Rohit hit a key phase in his career. Although his prodigious talent was never in question, he wasn’t hitting the heights that his talent merited. Despite plenty of opportunities and Rohit coming good on the odd occasion, his consistency was called into question. Running out of opportunities, Rohit was given an opportunity that would change the course of his career, when he was promoted to open the innings along with Shikhar Dhawan for the first time in the 2013 Champions Trophy. What happened afterwards, as they say, is history. 

ROHIT’S RECORDS

• 10,000+ runs in ODI cricket (one of only six Indians and fifteen cricketers to score 10,000+ runs)
• Highest individual score in ODI cricket (264)
• First man to score more than 2 double centuries in ODI cricket (3) 
• Most sixes in international cricket (601) 
• Most centuries in ODI World Cups (7)

… the list is endless.

Along with runs, came records, and along with records, came trophies. Rohit’s glittering career is paralleled by very few and the basher from Borivali is still going strong at 37, leading India to major wins across all formats. 

ROHIT’S ON-FIELD EARNINGS 

Rohit’s quality with a willow and his destructive ability makes him a crowd favourite wherever he goes. As a result, the Indian skipper is among the top brass of earners in the Indian cricketing circuit. 

• The Hitman is placed in the A+ bracket of BCCI’s annual contracts, meaning he earns an annual salary of ₹7 crore per year, along with the usual fees per match

• ₹15 lakh/Test match
• ₹7 lakh/ODI 
• ₹3 lakh/T20I

• The right-handed opener also gains ₹16 crore from his IPL contract for representing the highly successful Mumbai Indians, the team that he led to five IPL titles. 

Throughout his IPL career, Sharma has earned more than ₹194 crore from his time in the IPL marking him among the top earners in India’s showpiece cricketing event. 

ENDORSEMENTS AND INVESTMENTS 

Not just his quality with a bat, Rohit’s quirky and naturally humorous personality makes him easily strike a chord with anyone. The opener is known for his sense of (at times ignorant) humour that leaves people in splits and his quirks and massive fan following make him an ideal proponent for brands. As of 2024, it is reported that Rohit Sharma endorses nearly 30+ brands.

Some of the major brands that the six-time IPL winner endorses include: 

• CEAT – Rohit is reportedly paid ₹3 crores/year to endorse the popular tyre brand 
• OralB 
• Dream11
• Max Life Insurance 
• Wavin Pipes
• Oakley – Rohit became the brand ambassador in 2020 for one of the most popular eyewear brands in the world, earlier endorsed by cricketers such as Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh
• Swiggy Instamart – An instant delivery service 
• Aldar Living – A high-end living spaces firm operating out of Dubai 
• Mutual Funds Corporation
• TCL – An international electronics brand  

“Of late, we have seen his (Rohit’s) stump mic clips going viral and even in the past he has come up with some witty gems making him very relatable. This is why brands feel like he would be a good fit for them as he has an aura of authenticity which works very well for them.”

-Bhairav Shanth, Co-Founder ITW Universe

The Hitman reportedly charges ₹5 crore/endorsement deal, but it’s not something that puts brands away as they see the value and the eyeballs that the Indian skipper brings with his presence. Rohit was also the Indian ambassador for La Liga, the premier football league of Spain and one of the most watched and followed football leagues in the world. Coincidentally, the Indian skipper is also a huge fan of Real Madrid, the record winners of the league.  

Reports state that the overall valuation of Rohit’s endorsement deals are increasing at nearly 25% per year. 

DEAL WITH ADIDAS

An integral part of Rohit Sharma’s endorsement portfolio is his partnership with Adidas, one of the most iconic sports brands in the world. The Hitman is the face of Adidas in India, partnering with the iconic three stripes since 2013 after spending a brief period with rivals, Nike. 

“We look out for athletes with values like team play, innovation, respect—Rohit, as a human being and athlete, personifies all of them, He’s the captain of one of the best performing teams we’ve had, and his teamwork is often spoken about even when he wasn’t the captain in the IPL.”

-Neelendra Singh, Managing Director – Adidas India

Rohit signed up with Adidas just a fortnight after Sachin Tendulkar, the man who was the first player to endorse the three stripes retired from international cricket. Since then, the Hitman has been front and center of Adidas’ brand promotion in India. 

A key synergy between the brand and the Mumbai opener is also Rohit’s activism for environmental conservation efforts and his focus on reducing ocean waste. The latter was a key marketing strategy for Adidas whose Parley collection involved products made from recycling plastic waste dumped in the ocean. 

Rohit’s activism for organizations like PETA and WWF-India and activities like protection of wildlife, campaigning against poaching and cleanliness drives also adds values and conscience to his brand that make him highly desirable for companies who are focused on building their brand through community and social outreach initiatives. 

After extending his deal with the German brand in 2019, Adidas have also released a Rohit Sharma collection. 

A POPULAR MAN: ROHIT SHARMA’S SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWING 

Another integral part of Rohit’s brand pull is his fervent following on social media. The Hitman has cultivated a loyal fanbase, with 23.2 million followers on Twitter and 38.3 million followers on Instagram. The Indian skipper reportedly charges around ₹1-2 crore per social media post. 

Rohit’s agency, RISE Worldwide, reported that the right-hander recorded the highest increase in followers among Indian cricketers in 2024 and also an increase in engagement on static posts by almost 100%. 

“All of Rohit’s associations—be it short-term for a single campaign or a long-term brand ambassador relationship—mean deeply to him and this is very evident in his discussions with the brands on how and what can be better; he is also constantly improvising. We also focus on Róhit’s storytelling through reels and posts to identify brands that can fit well with it. Since there is vested interest, the collaborations also come naturally and the organic visibility is high.”

-Nikhil Bardhia, Head – RISE Worldwide

Despite Rohit being in the final phase of his career, his longevity and continued stardom places him in line with other Indian cricketing legends such as Virat Kohli, Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni. With the next generation of cricketers yet to catch the imagination of the public like their senior counterparts did during their younger days, Rohit could still rake in the moolah thanks to his ever-increasing brand value, quirky humane personality, and superstar status amongst the loyal fans of Indian cricket. 

HOUSES AND CARS

Rohit Sharma’s current net worth is estimated to be around ₹215 crore and it’s thanks to some savvy investments that the Hitman has made. A key part of them is his investments in real estate. The Indian skipper needs to be in a house befitting the captain of one of the most successful cricketing nations on the planet. And Rohit Sharma’s plush apartment in Mumbai is exactly that. 

The Hitman resides with his family in a luxurious 6,000 sq.ft. apartment on the 29th floor of Ahuja Towers, a 53-story, sea-facing residential apartment that offers panoramic views of the Arabian Sea and the beautiful Mumbai skyline. It is reported that the Hitman purchased the apartment for a whopping ₹30 crore. Rohit also owns another luxury house in Hyderabad worth a reported ₹5 crore. 

Another key part of Rohit’s luxurious outlay is his fleet of cars. The Hitman has shown an eye for a good ride, perhaps the least that one would expect from a man who endorses a world-famous tyre brand.

The 37-year-old opener has added several high-end cars to his collection which includes: 

FAMILY MAN ROHIT SHARMA

If you notice Rohit Sharma’s posts on social media, a good portion of his feed consists of content with his family. The Hitman is a family man through and through and posts plenty of delightful moments with either his wife, Ritika Sajdeh, and daughter Samaira Sharma. 

Rohit and Ritika were longterm partners and tied the knot in 2015. Their daughter Samaira was born in Mumbai in 2018 and Rohit’s cute little moments with his daughter are the toast of many of his fans worldwide. Ritika also acts as Rohit’s manager, managing all his aforementioned multi-million dollar deals, and of course, the house. The duo also feature in advertisements for brands such as Swiggy Instamart and Max Life Insurance. 

Rohit often recounts the struggles of his parents, Gurunath Sharma and Purnima Sharma and reveals with pride how much their struggles influenced his drive to be a cricketer and how thankful he was to their sacrifices. His father Gurunath, worked as a caretaker of a storehouse for a transport firm, working hard to ensure that his son’s cricketing dream becomes true. Rohit also has a younger brother named Vishal, who is a key part of his off-field initiatives. 

As the captain of the Indian cricket team, expectations have never been higher of Rohit and his boys. But if there’s anything that you know about Rohit from his career, it’s that the man has dealt with expectations in style everytime he’s stepped onto the cricket field. When faced with any situation, you would bet your money on the Hitman coming good on most occasions. 

Now in the twilight of his career, the Mumbaikar is still going strong, going hard on the bowlers and going well with his bank balance swelling off the pitch. If he keeps up his level of performance, Rohit would sit on one of the most glittering careers in modern cricket and as a brand magnate after he hangs up his boots, making good on that promise he showed at the start of his career.
