The portion of ceo (Chief executive officers) and taking care of supervisors at Nifty 50 taking home greater than Rs 50 crore in FY24 has actually increased in the last 5 years.

A record by Economic Times priced estimate a Deloitte research study shared specifically with them as claiming that a person out of every 5, or 22 percent, Chief executive officers and MDs made greater than Rs 50 crore in the last , compared to one out of every 10, or 10 percent, in FY19.

As per the research study, in FY24, 30 percent of the 10 promoter-incumbents, made greater than Rs 50 crore, compared to 27 percent in FY19.

Among the 31 non-promoter incumbents, 20 percent made over Rs 50 crore, 4 percent greater than those in FY19.

“CEO compensation in India, expressed as a percentage of revenue, is now comparable with that in the US,” Dinkar Pawan, director, Deloitte India, said in the study report.

“CEOs in the Nifty 50 consumer and IT services industries have seen among the highest year-on-year increases in compensation at 67 per cent and 43 per cent respectively. These are largely driven by a sustained increase in share-based long-term payments and share price growth,” Pawan said.
