Country's second largest software firm Infosys has granted close to 22,800 restricted stock units (RSUs) — worth over Rs 8.2 crore in shares — to its new CEO and Managing Director Vishal Sikka.
‘The Management Development and Compensation Committee of the Board has granted 22,794 RSUs to Vishal Sikka. The grant price of the RSU is Rs 5 per RSU,’ Infosys said in a filing to the BSE.
As per company policy, one RSU is equivalent to one equity share.

The RSU grant will also be subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the 2011 RSU Plan. Sikka, who was previously executive board member of German IT firm SAP, replaced SD Shibulal from 1 August.
