+ | India Inc's million-dollar salary club just got beefier with professionals outnumbering promoters in financial year 2015-16. The compensation study of executives commissioned by TOI to global executive search firm EMA Partners reveals that in 2015-16, 61 professional CEOs took home a pay package of Rs 6.5 crore or roughly a million dollars, compared with 58 promoters who form part of this elite club. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is the first time professional CXOs have outnumbered promoter CXOs, reflec ting the coming of age of Indian enterprises where pay-forperformance defines the work culture and professionals get rewarded handsomely for the impact they create. In the previous year's survey (2014-15), out of 100 executives who made it to the million-dollar salary list, 52 were promoters and 48 were professionals. In the year preceding that, the gap between promoters and professionals was wider -58 promoters against only 36 professionals.In 2009, out of a total of 49 in the million-dollar club, only nine were professionals. | ||
+ | |||
+ | K Sudarshan, managing partner, EMA Partners India, said: “We believe this trend is set to continue and we will see more professional CEOs join the ranks of India's highest paid executives. This is also a reflection of the scale of Indian businesses, which are now truly global.“ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Sudarshan said this was “just the tip of the iceberg“ as a number of highly paid professionals, who are part of unlisted entities serving Indian and multinational companies across sectors like financial services, private equity and large business conglomerates, don't feature in this list. | ||
+ | |||
+ | “Further, if we are to consider the value of stock options then we will probably see another 125-150 people added to this list,“ he said. Keeping up with tradi tion, the Marans (Kala nithi Maran and Kavery Kalanithi) continue to keep the top two slots in the list of India's highest-paid CEOsCXOs for the fourth consecutive year. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Among those who saw 100% or more increase in compensation from the previous year are A M Naik of Larsen & Toubro, K Venkataramanan (now retired from L&T), Vishal Sikka of Infosys and Ameet Desai, executive director and Group CFO at Adani Enterprises, and Vijay Aggarwal, MD of Prism Cement. Only two women are part of the million-dollar club -Kavery Kalanithi Maran (Sun TV) and Renu Sud Karnad, MD, HDFC. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Said Karnad: “It is a positive trend that we are seeing of more professional executives in the `million-dollar club'. This emphasises their growing demand in organisations as business complexities and importance of talent at top level increases. Professional executives' vast industry experience and independent and unbiased views, and the increasing global reach of business makes them an ideal choice to work along with promoters and in the best interests of stakeholders. This also highlights an important fact that promoters are giving more importance to talent at top level. This is in line with the trend in developed countries of having professional executives at the helm of the organisation.“ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Indian compensation at the top is reaching a point where the numbers are quite comparable to what one sees in the West. “As Indian family owned businesses build scale and complexity, their reliance on professionals is only increasing all the time as many of them are now board managed and professionally run with exemplary governance standards comparable to the best in the world,“ said Sudarshan. The study reveals an over all positive trend in the remuneration package of senior executives in the country, with over 75% taking home increased compensation and only four taking a cut of over 20% compared with last year. It ranks executives as per their compensation package including bo nus (excluding stock optionsshares) in the top 200 companies for the financial year 2014-15. It has based its million dollar cutoff at Rs 65 per US dollar, which comes to a salary of Rs 6.5 crore per annum. For comparison purposes, the previous year's salaries have also been mapped at the same exchange rate. | ||

Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma's wealth surged by 162% in 2015-16, making him the richest entrepreneur under 40 in Hurun's India rich list for 2016.
Sharma is worth about Rs 7,300 crore, up from Rs 2,824 crore in 2015. The rise in wealth can be attributed to Chinese e-commerce behemoth Alibaba's investment in the company and subsequent funding rounds that have raised Paytm's valuation. Sharma holds about 21% stake in the company.
After Sharma, Indigo co-founder Rakesh Gangawal has seen the biggest increase in we alth of more than 150%. His wealth stood at Rs 15,900 crore, thanks to the share price performance of the airline post its IPO last year. Anas Rahman Junaid, MDIndia of Hurun Report, a monthly magazine that focusses on high net-worth individuals in China and India, said sub dued investor interest in e-commerce and online businesses had reduced valuations of ecommerce unicorns in 2016. Several mutual funds with holdings in Flipkart have lowered the valuations of those stakes in the past few months.
Bhavish Aggarwal of Ola, the youngest in the list at 30, is worth Rs 3,000 crore, up from Rs 2,385 crore in last year's list. His co-founder Ankit Bhati is no longer in the list, which looks at those with wealth of Rs 1,600 crore and more. Last year, Bhati's wealth was exactly the same as Aggarwal's. Hurun's Junaid said Bhati does not have as much stake as Aggarwal does at present.
