Sundar Pichai the quiet and humble CEO of Google and Alphabet has now joined a very elite group of the billionaire’s club! In 2024 Pichai earned about USD 10.73 million in total. This includes his salary bonuses stock rewards and other company perks. While this is much less than the huge USD 226 million stock grant he received in 2022 it still keeps his yearly income strong.

Pichai became the CEO of Google in August 2015 and in December 2019 he also took over as the CEO of Alphabet Inc. Google’s parent company. So it took him almost 10 years of leading one of the world’s biggest tech companies to reach billionaire status. How does he own that much? Pichai owns about 0.02 per cent of Alphabet which is worth around USD 440 million today. Over the years he also sold Alphabet shares worth about USD 650 million.

In 2024 Sundar Pichai earned USD 10.73 million which was a rise from USD 8.8 million in 2023.

Base Salary: USD 2 million Stock awards bonuses and perks: Made up the rest of his total USD 10.73 million pay Security Expenses: Alphabet spent USD 8.27 million on his personal protection mostly due to his frequent global travel. This was 22 per cent more than last year. In 2022 Pichai received a huge USD 226 million stock grant which Alphabet gives once every three years. So his 2024 pay looks smaller in comparison.
