Corporate honcho Prajit Nanu is an aqua-holic, finds solace in scuba diving
Prajit Nanu is the CEO of InstaReM.
“I make time,” Nanu told ETPanache, “We have to make time to pursue our interests.” While work travel keeps him busy, his go-to destination every six months is the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
“I have to scuba, or I die,” he says with a laugh, sharing that he is a certified scuba diver. The depths of the ocean take him into a different world. “The vast blue is a reality check.
The shoals of beautiful, colourful fishes, the giant turtles floating in the ocean, the dolphins jumping by your side, and the deep blue unending abyss down below, it’s all so mesmerising,” he says.
The next goal in Nanu’s scuba diving pursuit is to get certified for night diving. “I’m scared of diving in the dark depths. But I have to let go... of myself and let the oceans take over,” he signs off.

It’s all in the numbers. Have a look at the compensation packages of top executives compared to employees down the rank.If you ever wished to know how your pay compares with that of the boss, all you must look for is a tiny data point in the annual report: ratio of remuneration to median remuneration of all employees.
Median remuneration basically means that half the employees in the organisation make less than the amount, while the remainder half makes more.
Earlier this year, a new Securities and Exchange Commission rule mandated that publicly traded companies disclose how their heads were compensated in comparison with their employees, through pay ratios.
Similar ratios are already being provided by Indian companies in their annual reports. A look at what some of India’s highest-paid business leaders make and how that compares with the median remuneration.
