India's second-richest person, Gautam Adani, received a total remuneration of Rs 9.26 crore in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.

Notably, Adani drew salaries only from 2 out of the 10 listed companies in his ports-to-energy conglomerate.

From Adani Enterprises, his compensation package for 2023-24 included a salary of Rs 2.19 crore, along with perquisites, allowances, and other benefits totalling Rs 27 lakh.

Additionally, he received Rs 6.8 crore from Adani Ports and SEZ Ltd (APSEZ).

Interestingly, Adani's salary was lower than that of his executives and industry peers, such as Airtel's Sunil Bharti Mittal and Rajiv Bajaj.

In comparison, the remuneration of other industry leaders was significantly higher: Sunil Bharti Mittal received Rs 16.7 crore in 2022-23, Rajiv Bajaj earned Rs 53.7 crore, Pawan Munjal received Rs 80 crore, and both the L&T Chairman S.N. Subrahmanyan and Infosys CEO Salil S. Parekh were also noted for their high earnings.

Adani's younger brother, Rajesh, earned Rs 8.37 crore, which included a Rs 4.71 crore commission on profits from Adani Enterprises Ltd (AEL), while his nephew, Pranav Adani, took home Rs 6.46 crore, including a Rs 4.5 crore commission.

Gautam Adani did not receive any commission from AEL but obtained a Rs 5 crore commission from APSEZ.
