Performance at Dynemic Products Limited (NSE:DYNPRO) has been reasonably good and CEO Bhagwandas Patel has done a decent job of steering the company in the right direction. As shareholders go into the upcoming AGM on 29 September 2022, CEO compensation will probably not be their focus, but rather the steps management will take to continue the growth momentum. However, some shareholders may still be hesitant of being overly generous with CEO compensation.

Comparing Dynemic Products Limited's CEO Compensation With The Industry

At the time of writing, our data shows that Dynemic Products Limited has a market capitalization of ₹3.5b, and reported total annual CEO compensation of ₹12m for the year to March 2022. That's a notable decrease of 24% on last year. We note that the salary of ₹6.49m makes up a sizeable portion of the total compensation received by the CEO.

For comparison, other companies in the industry with market capitalizations below ₹16b, reported a median total CEO compensation of ₹6.8m. This suggests that Bhagwandas Patel is paid more than the median for the industry. Moreover, Bhagwandas Patel also holds ₹381m worth of Dynemic Products stock directly under their own name, which reveals to us that they have a significant personal stake in the company.

Other ₹5.1m ₹8.0m 44%
Total Compensation₹12m ₹15m100%

Speaking on an industry level, nearly 86% of total compensation represents salary, while the remainder of 14% is other remuneration. Dynemic Products pays a modest slice of remuneration through salary, as compared to the broader industry. If salary is the major component in total compensation, it suggests that the CEO receives a higher fixed proportion of the total compensation, regardless of performance.
