How much do profs like L Gurunathan from XLRI earn from their guest lectures at IIM Ahmedabad?

Any visiting professor or faculty member, like L Gurunathan from XLRI, is paid on an hourly basis. It is rather a fair amount to share. For a full credit 30 hour course, a professor like him can be paid anywhere from Rs. 8,000 per hour to Rs. 15,000 per hour. Generally, new IIMs pay a lot higher than what old IIMs pay, which somehow can be anticipated. 

The best guess still remains to be around Rs. 10,000 per hour or a whole 3 lac, if the professor invests for a full credit course. Other than that, if you wish to know how L Gurunathan in XLRI is known to be, then read the progression.

L Gurunathan had taught Comp. and Benefits in the Talent Management course online offered solely by XLRI - VIL programs to my younger cousin alongside other students, and as he reports, his vantage point isn't likely the best. Students comparatively arrive with basic industry knowledge, but his attitude towards them doesn’t remain smooth at all. It is something to consider.

He also, over time, has failed providing students important notes, handouts or book suggestions, unlike many other professors. Students have often come up saying that his indifferent behaviour has led into not sharing better information of Comp. and Benefits which rather is a very technical subject itself. 

He is somehow infamous for not teaching the proper structures of a topic. He teaches what he thinks about, which practically can be chaotic, if not followed a pattern. The story however does not end there. L Gurunathan, when asked for various case studies or book suggestions, directly moves into denial, saying that his teachings on the topic are strictly based on one.
