India's Richest YouTuber: Tanmay Bhat With a net worth of Rs 665 crore, comedian Tanmay Bhat is the richest person in India's thriving creator economy, according to Tech Informer (based on data from MyJar Blog). Let's see who he has overtaken on his path to success.
The Comedy King, Tanmay Bhat Tanmay has amassed a fortune through comedy, podcasts, and brand partnerships, ranging from stand-up performances to viral sketches. Now worth Rs 665 crore, he’s officially India’s richest YouTuber. He even joked, “Bhai itne paise hote toh main YouTube membership nahi bech raha hota.”
Gaurav Chaudhary – The Tech Titan Coming in second is Gaurav Chaudhary, aka Technical Guruji, with a net worth of Rs 356 crore. India's tech content scene is dominated by Gaurav, who is well-known for his tech reviews and gadget insights. But Tanmay has out-earned him — almost double his wealth.
Samay Raina – The Chess Comedian Third on the list is Samay Raina, comedian and chess streamer, worth Rs 140 crore. He’s blended humour and strategy like no one else. Tanmay, his friend and collaborator, has now surpassed him by over Rs 500 crore.
CarryMinati – The Roast Master YouTube star CarryMinati (Ajey Nagar) sits at fourth with Rs 131 crore. Carry, one of India's most popular creators, is well-known for his epic roasts and gaming content. Tanmay still has a significant lead, demonstrating the value of diversification.
Bhuvan Bam – The OG Digital Star Fifth place goes to Bhuvan Bam, the BB Ki Vines creator, with Rs 122 crore. He pioneered relatable storytelling on YouTube and broke into music and acting. Yet, Tanmay’s empire of comedy, podcasts, and production has taken him even higher.
Amit Bhadana – The Desi Favourite With Rs 80 crore, Amit Bhadana remains one of the most loved creators from North India. His grassroots comedy made him a household name. Tanmay’s diversified ventures, though, have placed him far ahead.
Triggered Insaan – The Relatable Voice Nischay Malhan, aka Triggered Insaan, holds Rs 65 crore. Known for his commentary and humour, he’s a Gen Z icon. But Tanmay’s experience and brand strategy have turned him into a digital mogul.
Dhruv Rathee and Ranveer Allahbadia – The Thinkers Dhruv Rathee (Rs 60 crore) and Ranveer Allahbadia (Rs 58 crore) represent intellect and motivation on YouTube. Their analytical and lifestyle content reach millions. Still, Tanmay’s comedic empire has outpaced even this diverse duo.
Sourav Joshi – The Young Star Rounding out the top ten is Sourav Joshi, India’s top vlogger with ₹50 crore. He’s the youngest on the list — a symbol of YouTube’s new era. But for now, Tanmay Bhat sits at the top — the face of India’s Rs 3,000 crore creator economy.
