Raut filed his election affidavit on 20th October 2025, as per the transparency norms set by the Election Commission, declaring his income, property and pending cases.
He has ancestral property in Vidyapati Nagar, Sursand, Sitamarhi (PIN–843331) which is his long-time residence and political base.
He maintains his official correspondence address in Patna, the administrative capital of Bihar to manage his legislative and political affairs.
