The boss of Vodafone took home nearly £3m last year after securing an inflation-busting 9% pay rise.

On top of a £1.3m bonus, chief executive Vittorio Colao banked a £313,000 pension top-up and saw his base salary jump from £975,000 to £1,065,000.

His £2.73m package for the 12 months to the end of March - up from £2.67m the year - will be further boosted by a £3.5m sharebased pay-out from an old incentive scheme.

Last year the mobile phone group (down 7.4p to 161.55p) saw adjusted operating profits rise 3.1% to £11.8bn.
