Top brass pay falls at TCS

Mumbai: The annual incomes of top executives at Tata Consultancy Services fell in the just concluded fiscal year, as India’s largest IT services provider posted slower growth due to business uncertainty triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Chief executive Rajesh Gopinathan’s income dropped 16.5% to ₹13.3 crore in the fiscal year ended March 31 from ₹16.04 crore in the previous financial year. His compensation included ₹1.35 crore in salary, ₹1.29 crore as perquisites, ₹10 crore in commission and about ₹72 lakh from other allowances.

Chief operating officer N Ganapathy Subramaniam and chief financial officer V Ramakrishnan’s salary packages also dipped.
