Restaurant Brands Asia Limited (formerly Burger King India Limited) has issued additional information regarding Item No. 4 of the Explanatory Statement for its extraordinary general meeting (EGM) scheduled for Friday, February 13, 2026. This item pertains to the payment of remuneration to Mr. Rajeev Varman, Whole-Time Director and Group Chief Executive Officer, for the period commencing April 01, 2026, up to February 26, 2029.
The additional details cover two main areas: incentive/variable pay and employee stock options (ESOPs).
For variable pay, payouts are linked to the achievement of company performance conditions such as EBIDTA, operational performance indicators, new stores, company revenue, and SSSG (%). These targets are approved by the Board or Nomination Remuneration Committee (NRC) at the beginning of each year. The variable pay has an upper limit of ₹40 million (INR 4 crore) per annum.
Regarding ESOPs, grants will be made by the NRC as per the company's ESOP Schemes. The terms of ESOP grants for the CEO will align with other employees, following comparative benchmarking studies for long-term incentive (LTI) value. The annual LTI value of ESOP grants will not exceed 2.0 times the fixed pay, based on a recent benchmarking study. Vesting of options is contingent upon continued employment and may be linked to tenure or company performance criteria. Performance criteria include achievement of EBITDA, Annual Operating Plan (AOP), Revenue, and Net Restaurant Growth (NRG). For options linked to performance, the exercise price will be ₹10 (face value of the share). The NRC retains the discretion to set additional conditions and reassign weights to performance criteria.
This information is to be read in conjunction with the EGM Notice dated January 20, 2026.
