ESOPs, Advisor Equity, Mentor Stock are terms that every startup founder comes across once they form their company. More often than not, what is not clear is the difference between these terms.

Key Points

​

  • How are ESOPs (employee stock options) different from mentor stock? 

  • What is advisor equity? 

  • Can I give ESOPs to my co-founder?

  • Do I need a grant letter when I already mentioned the ESOPs in my employee's offer letter? Who has to bear the tax on ESOPs?
