Tamil Nadu’s J Jayalalithaa takes home a token salary of Re 1, according to Paycheck India, a research initiative of the Indian Institute of Management, Ahmedabad (IIM-A).
While the research at Paycheck India is led by Biju Varkkey, a faculty member of IIM-A, paycheck.in’s technical infrastructure is handled by WageIndicator Foundation, an Amsterdam-based non-profit organization.
At Rs 7,02,260 annually, which is close to Rs 60,000 per month, Gujarat’s Narendra Modi figures at No 6 in the list.
