Healthy evening sir, If you’re sedentary (light exercise)- BMR * 1.2 If you’re light exercise 1-3 days per week- BMR * 1.375 If you’re moderately active 3-5 days per week- BMR *1.55 Consuming 300-500 calories more than the body burn on a daily basis is usually sufficient for steady weight gain. For more rapid weight gain, a person may need to consume up to 1000 calories more per day.

As it has been suggested you can calculate your calories as 300 to 500 calories increase for the day and add calorie dense foods alongside weight training under supervision & guidance can activate weight gain as well
