British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak (42) has released his tax returns for the past three years. The financial situation of the conservative politician, who is married to the daughter of an Indian billionaire, has often been the subject of speculation and controversy against the 42-year-old.
According to the documents now released, his income from April 2019 to March 2022 was £4.7 million (currently about CHF 5.3 million). Sunak paid a total of over a million pounds in tax (1.13 million francs) for this.

Capital gains accounted for the bulk of his income. These amounted to up to 1.6 million pounds (approximately 1.8 million Swiss francs) within one tax year.
However, Sunak’s income is likely to be eclipsed by his wife’s. The couple made headlines last year when it was revealed that Sunak’s wife Akshata Murty, 42, had special legal status that allowed her to pay taxes in India instead of the UK.
At the time, she held a 0.9 per cent stake in software company Infosys, which the BBC estimates is worth more than £500m, saving an estimated £1million in UK taxes. Sunak was the finance minister at the time. His wife has since renounced the special status. (SDA)
