Sean 'Diddy' Combs net worth: From cars and properties to endorsement - Here's a look at the rapper's earnings

Mint3 days ago
Billboard‑style beat, big business, and massive investments: Sean 'Diddy' Combs transformed his hip‑hop fame into a sweeping empire over the years. At his peak, Forbes pegged him at around $740 million in 2019, fueled by his Sean John fashion line, Cîroc vodka partnership, and Revolt TV media platform.
His holdings span vinyl and ventures included the likes of Bad Boy Records, Bad Boy Entertainment, and stretched into Miami and Los Angeles estates. He also owned a private jet, top‑tier artwork, plus stakes in tech and hospitality via a company known as Combs Enterprises.
But legal headwinds and civil suits have shaved off nearly $340 million since. As of recent months, Forbes estimates his net worth at roughly US$400 million, which is still substantial, but a sharp decline from his billionaire aspirations.
A federal sweep, indictments, and trial shake the Diddy brand. On July 2, 2025, a jury found Combs guilty on two counts of transporting partners and escorts for prostitution under the Mann Act, but cleared him of racketeering and sex‑trafficking charges, which could have carried life sentences. The mixed verdict came after 34 witnesses testified during seven weeks of proceedings in Manhattan, according to a People report. Appeals and bail hearings are expected, but even the lesser convictions expose him to nearly a decade behind bars, and possibly the end of his public career, says an AP report.The recent guilty, yet mixed verdict might spare Diddy from lifelong incarceration, yet the consequences are serious. He faces up to 20 years in prison if both prostitution counts are stacked. Legal experts predict he could receive a shorter sentence, perhaps around a year or two, given the sentencing guidelines and his acquittal on the more severe charges, according to reports.
Still, conviction carries collateral damage: brand deals like Cîroc ended in 2023 after fallout over legal credibility, and Bad Boy's operations and value are under fresh threat.

Market manipulation ‘will not be tolerated,' warns SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey

Sebi chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey on Saturday declared that market manipulation is 'not going to be tolerated.' His message comes a day after the regulator slapped an interim order against New York-based hedge fund manager Jane Street. Sebi on Friday barred US-based Jane Street Group from the Indian securities markets and ordered them to disgorge unlawful gains of ₹ 4,843 crore for unlawful gains — potentially the highest disgorgement ever. Jane Street allegedly manipulated the stock indices through positions taken in the derivatives segment. In its interim order, Sebi has debarred the Jane Street Group, consisting of the following companies: JSI Investments, JSI2 Investments Pvt Ltd, Jane Street Singapore Pte Ltd, and Jane Street Asia. The investigation into the activities of the group is ongoing, the news agency reported. Speaking at an event organised by the Bombay Chartered Accountants Society, Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey confirmed that surveillance has been increased both by the regulator and also at the exchange level to deter future misconduct. The Sebi chief made it clear that CAs must adhere to some 'non-negotiable responsibilities, which includes transparency in disclosing related party transactions, managing conflicts of interest and presenting material developments in a timely manner.' "You have a critical responsibility to ensure that corporate governance is not reduced to a checklist," he advised the CAs. While tough on manipulation, the Sebi chairman also spoke in favour of not having too much of compliance. "We are also mindful that too much information, too much compliance adds to a big compliance burden which may not actually serve the interest that we really intend to serve," he said.

Sebi warning: After action against Jane Street, chairman says 'market manipulation won't be tolerated'

SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey Capital markets regulator Sebi stepped up surveillance for the stock market and warned that any kind of manipulation will not be tolerated. Sebi Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey made this clear on Saturday, a day after the regulator passed an interim order against US-based hedge fund Jane Street Group. Pandey said monitoring has been tightened both by Sebi and at the stock exchange level. When asked if similar behaviour had been seen with other foreign investors, he responded, "All what I can say that market manipulation is not going to be tolerated". Earlier, on Friday, the regulator barred Jane Street Group from participating in the Indian securities market and ordered it to return illegal gains worth Rs 4,843 crore. The group has been accused of manipulating stock indices through positions in the derivatives market. This may be the highest ever disgorgement ordered by Sebi. In its interim order, Sebi prohibited four entities: JSI Investments, JSI2 Investments Pvt Ltd, Jane Street Singapore Pte Ltd, and Jane Street Asia Trading, from trading until further notice, while investigations continue. Later in the day, at an event hosted by the Bombay Chartered Accountants Society, Pandey also stressed the importance of transparency and ethics in corporate governance. He told chartered accountants that disclosing related party transactions, managing conflicts of interest, and reporting key developments on time were "non-negotiable responsibilities". "You have a critical responsibility to ensure that corporate governance is not reduced to a checklist," he said, addressing the CAs. Pandey also said that excessive compliance requirements can become burdensome and may not always serve their intended purpose. "We are also mindful that too much of information, too much of compliance adds to a big compliance burden which may not actually serve the interest that we really intend to serve," he said. 'We would also like to see wherever we have the possibility of doing better results with less compliance, less information, less onerous responsibility and less micromanagement on the part of regulator,' he added, inviting suggestions for improvement.
