Under the new package, Campbell Wilson stands to earn up to ₹27.75 cr
A fortnight before the country's worst civil aviation disaster in almost three decades involving one of its flights, Tata-owned Air India's board handed its CEO Campbell Wilson, a new salary, under which he stands to earn up to ₹27.75 crore.
This would be a 46% jump from the ₹18.98 crore he earned in 2023-24, according to Air India's filings. Wilson walked into the corner room in July 2022 and was promised a salary of up to ₹21.50 crore.
The new remuneration package—which is effective 1 April 2025 and includes a fixed salary of ₹11.1 crore, ₹8.32 crore in performance-linked bonuses, and ₹8.32 crore in long-term stock incentives—was approved by the company's board on 27 May. This implies that about 60% of Wilson's current salary is tied to the airline's performance. Air India's ill-fated flight from Ahmedabad to London crashed on 12 June.

Relief for investors as equities, rupee edge up, but caution prevails
India's equity markets ended the week with modest gains, even as investors lacked conviction about the road ahead. Benchmark indices traded with a mild positive bias through Friday’s session, supported by a stronger rupee.
