In contrast, the average salary of junior executives is estimated to have grown at about half that rate over the same period.

The number of CEOs earning ₹20 crore or more has doubled over the past four years according to the survey, which has a base of 400 listed and unlisted firms across sectors.
The proportion of promoter CEOs earning more than 20 crore a year tripled from 9% in 2020 to 26% in 2024, while that of professional CEOs in the same bracket, increased from 12% in 2020 to 17% in 2024.
