How Does Sahil Vachani's Compensation Compare With Similar Sized Companies?

Our data indicates that Max Ventures and Industries Limited is worth ₹6.3b, and total annual CEO compensation is ₹22m. (This is based on the year to March 2018). We think total compensation is more important but we note that the CEO salary is lower, at ₹9.5m. We took a group of companies with market capitalizations below ₹14b, and calculated the median CEO total compensation to be ₹1.3m.
