As Minister of Coal and Mines he is a Union Cabinet Minister, and every Cabinet Minister draws the same statutory salary — there is no special portfolio pay. It is built on the standard Member of Parliament pay package, revised in 2024:
Earnings

| Basic salary (MP pay) | ₹1,24,000 |

How the tax works: an MP's constituency allowance and office expense allowance are exempt from income tax — only the basic salary is fully taxable. So the net take-home stays close to the widely quoted ₹2.6 lakh a month (about ₹31 lakh a year).
