Rishabh Pant se convirtió en el mejor postor en la mega subasta de la Indian Premier League (IPL) de 2025 por Rs. 27 millones.
Rishabh Pant, the most expensive player in Indian Premier League (IPL) auction history, won’t receive his full salary for IPL 2025. The wicketkeeper-batter was signed for a record-breaking Rs. 27 crore by Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the IPL 2025 mega auction. However, his earnings will see some deductions, meaning he won’t take home the entire amount. Curious about the reasons behind these deductions and what they entail? Read on to find out.
Why Rishabh Pant won’t receive the full Rs 27 Crore
Rishabh Pant’s record-breaking Rs. 27 crore IPL contract grabs headlines, but tax deductions significantly reduce his net earnings. Lucknow Super Giants have pledged Rs. 27 crore per season for Pant’s services, but the Indian government will deduct Rs. 8.1 crore in taxes from the total amount. As a result, Pant’s take-home salary will amount to Rs. 18.9 crore per season.
- Salary: Rs 27 crore
- Tax deduction: Rs 8.1 crore
- Deducted salary: Rs 18.9 crore
Rishabh Pant’s bid war in IPL 2025 auction
Delhi Capitals tried to retain Rishabh Pant by using their Right to Match (RTM) card at Rs. 20.75 crore. However, Lucknow Super Giants’ aggressive offer of Rs. 27 crore led Delhi to withdraw, securing Pant’s transfer to the Lucknow-based team.
Pant’s landmark contract completes an inspiring comeback journey. After surviving a near-fatal car crash in 2022 and undergoing lengthy rehabilitation, he returned to international cricket with renewed determination. Now, Pant is set to captain LSG in the upcoming IPL 2025 season, which begins on March 14.
