The affidavit shows Vijay declaring total assets worth ₹648.85 crore and liabilities of ₹7.63 crore. His movable assets alone stand at over ₹426 crore, while immovable assets are valued at around ₹222 crore. 

₹75 crore in loans and advances

He also disclosed loans of ₹12.6 crore to spouse Sangeetha Vijay, ₹5.84 crore to Vidya Charitable Trust, ₹5 crore to V Ravichandran and ₹3 crore to N Anand.

The affidavit further listed smaller advances to Jason Sanjay, Divya Saasha and several associates and entities linked to him. 

Over ₹213 crore in one bank account

Vijay's affidavit also revealed massive cash holdings in banks and fixed-income instruments. The single biggest component is over ₹213.36 crore parked in an Indian Overseas Bank savings account in Saligramam. Besides this, he declared balances across Axis Bank, HDFC Bank, SBI, and ICICI Bank accounts. 

He has also invested ₹100 crore in fixed deposits across four banks - ₹40 crore in Axis Bank, ₹25 crore in Indian Overseas Bank, ₹20 crore in HDFC Bank and ₹15 crore in State Bank of India.  

Minimal equity exposure

Despite his massive wealth, Vijay's exposure to equity markets remains negligible. His affidavit showed shares worth just about ₹19.37 lakh, including holdings in Jaya Nagar Property B Ltd, Indian Overseas Bank and Sun Paper Mill.
