Gautam Adani, India's second and the world's 14th richest person, has received a total salary of Rs 9.26 crore in the financial year 2023-24. Although 10 companies of Adani Group are listed in the stock market, Gautam Adani has received salary from only 2 companies. He gets this salary for being the promoter of the company, chairmanship and many other important responsibilities. But do you know that his salary is less than many big business tycoons of the country. Also, do you know how much his appraisal has been?

The information given to the stock market by 10 listed companies of Adani Group shows that Gautam Adani has received salary only from 2 companies Adani Enterprises Limited and Adani Ports and SEZ.

How much salary did you get from which company?

Adani Group works in sectors ranging from ports to green energy. He has received a salary of Rs 2.19 crore in 2023-24 from the group's flagship company Adani Enterprises. At the same time, he has received Rs 27 lakh in the form of other benefits and allowances. In this way, his total salary from this company has been Rs 2.46 crore. According to the annual report of AEL, Gautam Adani's salary appraisal has been 3%. Apart from this, Gautam Adani has received a salary of Rs 6.8 crore from the group's second largest company Adani Ports and SEZ Limited (APSEZ).

Adani's salary is less than these business tycoons

Gautam Adani's salary is less than many big business tycoons of the country. Mukesh Ambani, the richest man in the country and chairman of Reliance Industries, has stopped taking salary from the company since Covid-19. Before that his annual salary was Rs 15 crore. At the same time, Gautam Adani's salary is much less than the salary of Sunil Bharti Mittal, owner of telecom company Airtel, which is Rs 16.7 crore for 2022-23. Among those who get more salary than Gautam Adani, it is less than Bajaj Auto chief Rajiv Bajaj (Rs 53.7 crore) and Hero Motors' Pawan Munjal (Rs 80 crore).

Owner of assets worth 8.85 lakh crores

According to the 'Bloomberg Billionaire Index', Gautam Adani's total wealth is $106 billion (about Rs 8.85 lakh crore). There is often a competition between him and Mukesh Ambani to become the richest person in Asia. Before the Hindenburg Research report came out, he had surpassed Mukesh Ambani twice in terms of wealth. He had even become the third richest person in the world.

After the Hindenburg Research report, the value of shares of his group companies had fallen by $150 billion, however, now he has recovered and has become the second richest person in the country. Mukesh Ambani is at the 12th position with a net worth of $111 billion. While Gautam Adani is at the 14th position in this list.

Salary of brothers, nephews and sons

Gautam Adani's younger brother Rajesh received a salary of Rs 8.37 crore including Rs 4.71 crore as commission on profits from AEL. His nephew Pranav Adani received a total salary of Rs 6.46 crore including Rs 4.5 crore commission.

Gautam Adani has not taken any commission from Adani Enterprises, but he has received Rs 5 crore as commission from Adani Port. His son Karan Adani has earned Rs 3.9 crore from Adani Port. Gautam Adani's brother, nephew and son do not take salary from more than one company.
