How Does P. Parvathi's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?
At the time of writing our data says that Deccan Cements Limited has a market cap of ₹5.0b, and is paying total annual CEO compensation of ₹27m. (This is based on the year to March 2019). We note that's an increase of 13% above last year. While this analysis focuses on total compensation, it's worth noting the salary is lower, valued at ₹9.2m. We examined a group of similar sized companies, with market capitalizations of below ₹14b. The median CEO total compensation in that group is ₹1.5m.
Thus we can conclude that P. Parvathi receives more in total compensation than the median of a group of companies in the same market, and of similar size to Deccan Cements Limited. However, this doesn't necessarily mean the pay is too high. A closer look at the performance of the underlying business will give us a better idea about whether the pay is particularly generous.
