IIT graduates are leading a few of the biggest tech companies in the world but that doesn’t mean that all Indian geniuses are from that institution. There are several tech giants that are spearheaded by brilliant IT minds that secured engineering degrees from other popular colleges. One such Indian engineer worked for companies like Apple, Silicon Graphics and MeasureX before landing a job where he gets a salary of more than Rs 250 crore. According to Hurun list, in 2022, he had a net worth of Rs 3800 crore dollars. On the other hand, Sundar Pichai's net worth was Rs 5300 crore. The engineer we are talking about is Shantanu Narayen who is Chairman, President and CEO of Adobe. For those who are unaware, Adobe currently has a market cap of more than Rs 258 billion dollars.
