Independent Director Fees Double in India Over Five Years

Over the last five years, the amount of money independent directors in India's top companies get paid has doubled.

This means they now earn almost twice as much as they did before.

This increase is mainly because the companies are doing well, and the directors are getting paid more for attending meetings.

Also, regulations require companies to have these directors.

The pay for female independent directors has increased at a faster rate.

Investors are also paying close attention to whether the directors are working harder for the extra money.
