How it works
Net worth is what you truly own after subtracting what you owe. Track it every 6 months. Rising net worth beats a rising salary — you can earn a lot and still be broke.
The formula
Net Worth = Total Assets − Total Liabilities- Assets
- Cash, deposits, investments, property market value, gold, vehicle resale value
- Liabilities
- Home loan outstanding, personal loan, credit card debt, EMIs due
Worked example
Assets ₹15L (cash ₹2L + investments ₹8L + car ₹5L). Liabilities ₹4L car loan. Net worth = ₹11L. If car falls to ₹3L next year and loan drops to ₹3L, NW = ₹10L — the asset depreciated faster than the loan.
Pro tips
- Value property at conservative resale price, not the price you paid or 'ask'.
- Cars, electronics, and gadgets are depreciating assets — track them realistically.
- Aim for financial independence when: Net Worth (excluding home) ≥ 25 × annual expenses.
- Track two ratios: liquid net worth (excluding property) and investable net worth.
Common mistakes
- Counting future salary or bonuses as 'assets'.
- Ignoring hidden liabilities: EMIs on credit-card purchases, buy-now-pay-later, informal loans.
- Chasing 'net worth' by taking on more debt for depreciating assets.
