Assets Tripled: Know more about Silchar’s BJP Candidate, Dr. Rajdeep Roy’s declaration

Former MP Dr Rajdeep Roy is now the BJP candidate from Silchar for the upcoming Assam Assembly Election. If he wins, he will be the next MLA of Silchar. As part of election procedure, every candidate must declare their assets and liabilities in an affidavit to the Election Commission. A comparison between his 2019 parliamentary affidavit and his 2026 assembly affidavit shows some striking changes. The value of his car has increased over time, he now owes around Rs 12.5 lakh to a Congress candidate and most notably, his income has almost tripped between 2019 and 2026.

A close look at the affidavits of Rajdeep Roy reveals a steady rise in overall wealth over the past seven years, alongside some unusual patterns in asset declaration.

Income Trends

Between 2013-14 and 2017-18, his annual income fluctuated between Rs 21 lakh and Rs 40 lakh, peaking at Rs 40.79 lakh in 2016-17 before dropping again.

In contrast, after becoming MP in 2019, his income shows a more consistent upward trend. It rose from Rs 24.82 lakh in 2020-21 to Rs 39.13 lakh in 2021-22, dipped slightly to Rs 35.34 lakh in 2022-23, and then climbed again to Rs 42.37 lakh in 2023-24 and Rs 43.67 lakh in 2024-25.

Overall, his income nearly doubled within a few years, especially between 2021 and 2025.

Cash and Bank Deposits

In 2019, he had Rs 13.99 lakh in cash, while his spouse had Rs 2.03 lakh.

In 2026, cash in hand has reduced significantly to Rs 2.67 lakh for him and Rs 2.33 lakh for his spouse. However, this reduction is balanced by multiple bank deposits across accounts in Punjab National Bank, State Bank of India, HDFC Bank, and Indian Bank.

His spouse also holds bank deposits and a fixed deposit of Rs 2 lakh.

Investments and Shares

His investments have grown substantially.

In 2019, he held 60,000 shares worth Rs 60 lakh in Jeevan Jyoti Health Care and Research Centre Pvt. Ltd., while his spouse held 30,000 shares worth Rs 30 lakh.

By 2026, his holdings increased to 92,500 shares worth Rs 92.5 lakh, along with 2,500 shares in Gatisheel Printing Publication Pvt. Ltd. His spouse’s shares also increased to 40,000 worth Rs 40 lakh.

Loans and Advances

Loans given have also increased sharply.

In 2019, he had given Rs 25.90 lakh to his wife Doel Biswas.

In 2026, this has risen significantly with multiple entries. Rs 55.46 lakh and Rs 23.44 lakh to Doel Biswas, along with additional amounts to companies including Jeevan Jyoti Health Care and Gatisheel Printing.

Vehicles

In 2019, he owned a Toyota Fortuner with registration number AS-11A-6172, purchased in 2015 and valued at Rs 17.98 lakh.

In 2026, he owns another Toyota Fortuner with the same registration number but a different letter series (AS-11J-6172), also purchased in 2015. The value of the Toyota is declared at Rs 29.29 lakh as per the 2026 affidavit. Whether it’s a typing error or a different car is not known.

But both the affidavits of 2019 and 2026 show the car with the same number purchased in the year 2015. If it’s the same car, this increase in value over time stands out. He has also added another vehicle, a Toyota Innova Crysta worth Rs 21.67 lakh.

Gold and Jewellery

In 2019, he declared 5 grams of gold worth Rs 8,528.

In 2026, he declared only 2 grams of gold, yet the value remains exactly Rs 8,528.

Immovable Property

In 2019, he co-owned a flat in Hiland Willows, Kolkata, valued at Rs 60.25 lakh.

In 2026, his immovable assets, including the previously declared flat at Hiland Willows in Kolkata and a newly declared under-construction co-owned property at Radhamadhab Park in Silchar, are together valued at Rs 80 lakh.

Liabilities

His liabilities have slightly reduced from Rs 16.34 lakh in 2019 to Rs 14.80 lakh in 2026.

However, a new liability includes a loan of Rs 12.5 lakh from Aminul Haque Laskar, who is now a Congress candidate from Sonai and a former BJP member.

Overall Net Worth

The total value of his assets has seen a sharp rise.

In 2019, his total assets stood at Rs 1.25 crore.
In 2026, this has increased to Rs 3.73 crore.
His spouse’s assets have also grown from Rs 46.70 lakh to Rs 1.26 crore.

The comparison shows a clear rise in wealth and financial activity for Rajdeep Roy over the years. While income growth and increased investments are evident, certain declarations such as the rise in vehicle value raise interesting questions.

As voters in Silchar head to the polls, these financial details offer a deeper insight into the candidate beyond the campaign trail.
