How might the continued dilution from employee stock option exercises impact Nippon Life India AMC's earnings per share trajectory over the next few fiscal years?
Given the significant difference in grant prices across ESOP tranches (Rs. 223 to Rs. 578), what does this suggest about employee retention strategies and how competitive is Nippon Life India AMC's compensation structure compared to peers like HDFC AMC and SBI Funds Management?
With the PSU 2023 scheme allotting shares at near face value (Rs. 10), how large is the remaining unexercised pool under performance-linked schemes, and could future mass vesting events create meaningful selling pressure on the stock?
