Hi Hemant,

Went through the article about ESOs. Liked it but I have a question. You have mentioned the tax rates for US. what about the indian tax dept? how much do they charge?

Well I guess that ESOs are a way of delaying a company's financial expenses on a certain employee (read as salary). I believe that the ESO act as a big motivatng factor to an employee. One more reason as to why ESO's should be given at lower prices than the market is because the general shareholder has direct effort stake in the company. General shareholer will not contribute physically / mentally to any assignment day after day after day.

what say?
regards
