Lalit Modi leaks MS Dhoni’s offer letter from India Cements
Former Indian Premier League chairman Lalit Modi has leaked the offer letter of Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s employment terms with India Cements, owned by N Srinivasan, the former president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
Lalit Modi, who was sacked as IPL chief, has questioned the motive behind the employment when Dhoni earns approximately ~100 crore in a year.
“It seems only in #india#contempt after contempt continues by the #old #guards of @bcci How ? My best guess is #northblock. But most #puzzling is this #employment #contract of #MSD - WHY ? he earns 100’s of crores a year will he #agree to be #SRINI’S #employee. bet there are many such contracts,” he wrote on his Instagram post along with the copy of the contract letter.
Dhoni was appointed vicepresident (marketing) with India Cements in 2012.
His basic pay was ~43,000 per month. Dhoni also took home a fixed dearness allowance of ~21,970 per month, special pay of ~20,000 on a monthly basis and special allowance of ~60,000 per month. The two-time World Cup-winning captain also got ~175 towards newspapers and education expenses every month apart from ~4,500 for entertainment expenses. The offer letter also said that Dhoni was eligible for reimbursement of electricity, water and cooking gas charges till the time he is posted in Chennai where the company’s headquarter is located. Modi’s son Ruchir, who is set to contest for Rajasthan Cricket Association polls, was quick to react on his father’s post. “Shocking 2 c this kind of behaviour continuing in the #BCCI @msdhoni earns over 100 cr per year yet is a employee of #ChennaiCements,” Ruchir tweeted.
