He will also receive Rs. 3.25 crore in restricted stock units, Rs.13 crore in annual performance equity grants and a one-time equity grant of Rs. 9.75 crore.

The stock compensation will vest at different points over Mr Parekh's term, who has been appointed for a five-year term. Mr Parekh's employment contract also comes with a non-compete clause, Ms. Shaw said.

Parekh's contract also specifies the amount he will be paid should he fail to meet minimum performance targets, company said in a postal ballot, Shaw said.

The company said in a postal ballot that Parekh will not work with named competitors for six months from the day he leaves the company. He will also not work with or for a client to whom he has rendered service for the last 12 months, Infosys said.

Former CEO Vishal Sikka, who left Infosys abruptly in August last year after a prolonged standoff with the company's promoters, earned $6.75 million (nearly Rs. 43 crore) in FY17.
