May 19, 2021, 17:30 IST
Tata Consultancy Services CEO and MD Rajesh Gopinathan took home a pay package of about ₹20.36 crore in 2020-21, according to the company's annual report. In 2019-20, Gopinathan had received a total remuneration of ₹ 13.3 crore.
According to TCS' annual report for 2020-21, Gopinathan received ₹ 1.27 crore in salary, ₹2.09 crore in benefits, perquisites and allowances, and ₹ 17 crore in commission.
TCS Chief Operating Officer N Ganapathy Subramaniam drew a pay package of about ₹16.1 crore in the last financial year. This includes ₹1.21 crore in salary, ₹1.88 crore in benefits, perquisites and allowances, and ₹13 crore in commission.
The increase in the managerial remuneration for the year was 55.22 per cent, the report said.
"Increase in the managerial remuneration for FY2021 is not comparable with FY2020 owing to decrease in remuneration of 15 per cent 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 per cent in India. However, during the course of the year, the total increase is approximately 6.4 per cent, after accounting for promotions and other event-based compensation revisions. Employees outside India received a wage increase varying from 2 to 6 per cent, 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 per cent. TCS' permanent employee base was at 4,48,649 at the end of 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 makes it the preferred transformation partner of its customers.
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 ₹ 164,177 crore in FY2021.
