If there are 32 chromosomes in the diploid body cells, there would be 16 (half as many) in the haploid cells after meiosis. I hope that answers your question.

If you mean there are 32 homologous PAIRS (a total of 64) in the body cells, then the haploid number is 32.

If you mean that the body cells have a total of 32 chromosomes in a diploid organism, then the haploid number is 16.
