Vaibhav Taneja is a perfect example to believe that it’s not the IITians and IIMs graduates who get top-tier packages in recruitment or later career. Vaibhav has done a Bachelor’s of Commerce from the University in 1999. Thereafter, he completed his CA and accounting in 2000 and became a certified public accountant by 2006.

Vaibhav had spent nearly 16 years at PWC in managerial positions, which explains that he has gained significant leadership qualities in that time frame. After PWC, his next tenure was with SolarCity, which was acquired by Elon Musk in 2016. Impressed by his leadership skills, Elon Musk offered him a role at Tesla, and currently, he is the Chief Financial Officer at Tesla, and his remuneration is more than Rs 1,146.75 crores.

It is important to note that Taneja’s cash remuneration is way less than his total compensation, which also includes stocks and equity options. His base salary is likely to be between Rs 3 – 4 crores as per Dhruv Janssen-Sanghavi, who possesses expertise in international taxation. He is the founder of Janssen-Sanghavi & Associates Ref..

Vaibhav has shown that with strategic vision, analytic rigor, and a data-driven mindset, it is possible to achieve profitability in industries that are extremely capital-intensive. Leaving aside the last year where its profit income declined by almost 70%, Tesla has earned deep profits under the CFO, Vaibhav Taneja.

Vaibhav Taneja’s net worth in 2025 has risen sharply due to his stock options in Tesla.
