Indian-origin Google CEO Sundar Pichai made a whopping $100.5 million in the year 2015. That's right. The figure was disclosed via a regulatory filing on 29 March.

The filing revealed that Pichai was paid a salary of $6,52,500, received restricted stock worth $99.8 million (to vest fully in 2017) and awarded other compensation for $22,935.

Last February, Google awarded Pichai $199 million in restricted stock, which was the biggest grant reported by a Google CEO, according to Bloomberg.

Google named Sundar Pichai as the tech giant's CEO in August 2015, post the reorganisation of the company under the Alphabet umbrella.
