Paper Summary

The study looked at how CEO pay is determined in big Indian companies. They found that CEOs get paid more when their company does well. Remuneration committees don't always follow governance rules when deciding CEO pay. CEOs in family-run companies get higher pay, possibly because they have more influence. This can be bad for minority shareholders. CEOs in risky companies get paid less.
