		</div><p>The boss of Google has become the highest paid chief executive in America after being handed $199m in shares.</p>
<p>Sundar Pichai was awarded 273,328 shares in Google’s parent company Alphabet on February 3, according to a regulatory filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.</p>
<p>It is reported that Mr Pichai’s total stock value now sits at about $650m.</p>
<p>The payout will make him the top-earning chief executive in the United States when compared to the Forbes list of the top 10 highest-paid US bosses.</p>
<p>Mr Pichai became chief executive of Google following the creation of its parent company Alphabet last year.</p>
<p>However, his fortunes are dwarfed by those of Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who have reportedly made $34.6bn US dollars and $33.9bn respectively.</p>
<p>Google owner Alphabet knocked fellow US tech giant Apple off its top spot last week to become the world’s most valuable public company.</p>
<p>Alphabet posted a fourth-quarter profit of $4.9bn when it updated the market on February 1, up from $4.7bn a year ago.</p>
<p>It means Alphabet’s market value at the time stood at $555bn, compared with Apple which is valued at $533bn.</p>
<p>Google – which holds lucrative businesses such as digital advertising sales, search engine and YouTube – reorganised itself under Alphabet last October.</p>
