Top business house Reliance Industries has given its chief Mukesh Ambani, the country’s richest person and presumably top-paid executive, a hefty pay hike of about 45 per cent to take his annual remuneration to over USD10 million.
Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, got a total payout of Rs 44.02 crore in financial year 2007-08, marking an increase of about Rs 13.5 crore from the previous fiscal.
In fiscal 2006-07, Ambani’s annual remuneration had increased to Rs 30.46 crore, from Rs 24.77 crore previously.
However, a large part of Ambani’s full-year pay cheque comes in the form of commissions that the company pays to select executives as a ratio of its net profits.
