Nvidia India employees have reportedly lost nearly $600 million in paper wealth over six weeks as the company’s share price declined. The fall has reduced the estimated value of unvested stock awards held by employees of the global AI chipmaker.
A report published by Mint on November 12 said employees of Nvidia India employees Graphics Pvt. Ltd. held around 7.05 million unvested restricted stock units as of March 31, 2026. The estimated value of these awards fell as Nvidia shares dropped from around $244 to $168.80.
Nvidia Shares Face Fresh Market Pressure
The decline comes amid a broader sell-off in technology stocks. Investors have raised concerns about the high valuations of artificial intelligence companies and the returns expected from massive AI investments.
However, the pressure on Nvidia has also increased following reports about its chief executive, Jensen Huang. Media reports have raised questions about his personal relationships and the company’s leadership.
Reuters reported that Nvidia’s board was meeting to discuss Huang’s future. The company had not immediately responded to requests for comment on the reported meeting.
Why Employee Stock Awards Matter
Restricted stock units form an important part of compensation at several major technology companies. Employees receive these awards under specific conditions, and the shares generally vest over a period of time.
A decline in the company’s share price reduces the market value of unvested awards. This does not necessarily mean employees have lost cash already received. The actual impact depends on individual holdings, vesting schedules and share sales.
