Indian CEOs take home more than expats at electronics companies

In India’s electronics industry dominated by global brands, it’s the Indian chief executives who are raking in the moolah as compared to the expats.

As per the regulatory filings from more than a dozen large electronics companies for fiscal 2023, the remunerations of Indian chief executives working in domestic and multinational companies were higher than the expat heads. For instance, Indian CEOs at Sony, Blue Star and Crompton Greaves took home more money than their foreign counterparts at the local units of Samsung, LG and Vivo that had a much larger scale of business.
