A Deloitte study found that 54% of Indian companies that went public in the last three fiscal years introduced long-term incentives (LTIs) in the form of stock options for key executives. These LTIs were typically offered four years before the initial public offering to retain and motivate executives. The study also identified three types of pre-IPO LTI practices: tech startups granting stock to employees since inception, private equity-backed companies using stock grants for successful listings, and promoter-backed companies giving stock grants close to filing IPO documents. The trend of offering stock options to employees is expected to continue, especially in the tech sector.
