Tata Consultancy Services CEO and MD Rajesh Gopinathan took home a pay package of about Rs 20.36 crore in 2020-21, according to the company’s annual report. In 2019-20, Gopinathan had received a total remuneration of Rs 13.3 crore.
According to TCS NSE -0.47 %’ annual report for 2020-21, Gopinathan received Rs 1.27 crore in salary, Rs 2.09 crore in benefits, perquisites, and allowances, and Rs 17 crore in commission.
TCS Chief Operating Officer N Ganapathy Subramaniam drew a pay package of about Rs 16.1 crore in the last financial year. This includes Rs 1.21 crore in salary, Rs 1.88 crore in benefits, perquisites, and allowances, and Rs 13 crore in commission.
The increase in the managerial remuneration for the year was 55.22 percent, the report said.
“Increase in the managerial remuneration for FY2021 is not comparable with FY2020 owing to decrease in remuneration of 15 percent in FY2020 in view of the economic conditions impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic wherein the Directors had decided to moderate the executive remuneration for FY2020 to express solidarity and conserve resources,” it added.
The average annual increase in salaries was 5.2 percent in India. However, during the course of the year, the total increase is approximately 6.4 percent, after accounting for promotions and other event-based compensation revisions. Employees outside India received a wage increase varying from 2 to 6 percent, the report said.
The increase in remuneration is in line with the market trends in the respective countries, it added.
The report said the percentage increase in the median remuneration of employees in FY2021 was 0.03 percent. TCS’ permanent employee base was at 4,48,649 at the end of the 2020-21 fiscal year.
The 26th Annual General Meeting of the Mumbai-based company will be held virtually on June 10, 2021.
TCS Chairman N Chandrasekaran said the company sees immense opportunities for growth, riding the new technology cycle that has kicked off, powered by the belief that its differentiated capabilities and collaborative, solution-centric approach make it the preferred transformation partner of its customers.
“It is building on that belief, and investing in sharpening the capabilities needed to expand its footprint in this large opportunity,” he said in his letter to the shareholders.
Despite a sharp fall in revenues in the first quarter, TCS made a swift recovery during the rest of the year and clocked full-year revenues of Rs 164,177 crore in FY2021.
