Sunjay Kapur, the deceased industrialist and ex-husband of Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, accumulated a considerable wealth through his role as the leader of Sona Comstar, a worldwide auto components firm. By early 2025, his net worth was approximated to be around $1.2 billion (₹10,300 crore).
In the wake of Sunjay Kapur’s unforeseen demise, conversations have arisen concerning the allocation of his considerable fortune. Although the particulars of his will are not publicly available, it is understood that his offspring from different relationships are poised to receive shares of his estate.
The children from Karisma Kapoor include Samaira, aged 20, and Kiaan, aged 14. During their divorce proceedings in 2016, Sunjay Kapur arranged bonds valued at ₹14 crore for his children, which provide them with a monthly interest of ₹10 lakh to cover their expenses. Furthermore, custody of the children was awarded to Karisma Kapoor, and a property in Mumbai, formerly owned by Sunjay’s father, was transferred into her name. The children from Priya Sachdev, who is Sunjay’s second wife, include Azarius, who is 6 years old. Information regarding Azarius’s inheritance has not been made public.
Sona Comstar, led by Sunjay Kapur, was estimated to be worth around ₹31,000 crore at the time of his death. The future leadership of the company is likely to be transferred to his immediate family from his second marriage. Priya Sachdev is expected to take charge of managing the business empire, although no official announcements have been issued as of now.
Sunjay Kapur’s unexpected death while participating in a polo match in London has attracted considerable media coverage. Reports indicate that he might have experienced a heart attack after inadvertently ingesting a bee during the event. His death has prompted a reassessment of his estate and the prospects of his business ventures.
