How Does Total Compensation For Naresh Baranwal Compare With Other Companies In The Industry?

According to our data, TCI Developers Limited has a market capitalization of ₹1.4b, and paid its CEO total annual compensation worth ₹3.8m over the year to March 2021. There was no change in the compensation compared to last year. It is worth noting that the CEO compensation consists entirely of the salary, worth ₹3.8m.

In comparison with other companies in the industry with market capitalizations under ₹15b, the reported median total CEO compensation was ₹1.8m. This suggests that Naresh Baranwal is paid more than the median for the industry.

Speaking on an industry level, all of total compensation represents salary, while non-salary remuneration is completely ignored. On a company level, TCI Developers prefers to reward its CEO through a salary, opting not to pay Naresh Baranwal through non-salary benefits. If total compensation veers towards salary, it suggests that the variable portion - which is generally tied to performance, is lower.

A Look at TCI Developers Limited's Growth Numbers

Over the last three years, TCI Developers Limited has shrunk its earnings per share by 15% per year. In the last year, its revenue is up 5.8%.

Few shareholders would be pleased to read that EPS have declined. The fairly low revenue growth fails to impress given that the EPS is down. These factors suggest that the business performance wouldn't really justify a high pay packet for the CEO. While we don't have analyst forecasts for the company, shareholders might want to examine this detailed historical graph of earnings, revenue and cash flow.

Has TCI Developers Limited Been A Good Investment?

Since shareholders would have lost about 15% over three years, some TCI Developers Limited investors would surely be feeling negative emotions. So shareholders would probably want the company to be less generous with CEO compensation.

In Summary...

TCI Developers rewards its CEO solely through a salary, ignoring non-salary benefits completely. Along with the business performing poorly, shareholders have suffered with poor share price returns on their investments, suggesting that there's little to no chance of them being in favor of a CEO pay raise. At the upcoming AGM, they can question the management's plans and strategies to turn performance around and reassess their investment thesis in regards to the company.
