How much ESOPs can I ask from an early stage startup (incubated). Valuation is around 12 cr. I have agreed to take a 50% paycut on my fixed, but not sure about ESOPs. Please advice.
If you are taking a cut ESOP should be valued at least 1.5-2x of the amount you are cutting.
If you are one of the first employees, the equation is different. You could ask for 0.1-1% of total company for the value you bring.
