This is the one side of a coin. But the picture painted may vary from institute to institute, I mean generalization is to be made cautiously.
The other side of the coin is also equally important. Director/Principal draws the pay equialent to a Regional Commissioner who looks after 6 to 10 districts. Principal's chair is thorny one. S/he is the overall authority for the functioning of an institute following several Acts like EPF, IT, University and has to handle public and several regulatory authorities. The emergent issues or problems are of dynamic in nature and unpredictable. Principal has to face at least four agencies, i.e., regulatory bodies, students/parents/public, faculty and management. As against this Professor's job that draws equal pay of Principal (except Administrative Allowance), has a very limited responsibility. The PhD holders are usually found unprepared for this job because of several reasons like poor drafting, not ready to take risk (why to take a risk for a few thousands Rs?), not habituated to work hard, prefer short cuts, more leisure (human nature), etc.
Certainly pay hike to principal cannot work as a motivating factor. Principals be given free hand, autonomy, conducive environment, sense of accomplishment, status , etc. Sure am I at least a few professors will accept the challenge, "A" type category lot, 10 to 15 % by number but adding value 85-90 % to institute!

1. Management entrusts them innumerable responsibilities such as 1. Cooking-up college records, Black money accumulations, all cash transactions always, quoting various fee structures to from time to time, allowing "special" students not to attend classes on all days - but once in a blue moon, pressurising the principal to offer more marks in internal examinations to some special students, maintaining dummy faculty members records to show and satisfy the authorities, managing the political pressures from time to time, admitting whatever quality oriented students to hike up the quantity, because of that quality is in stake, losing complete touch with class room activities and performing table- functions, victims of the wrath of faculty members on salary hikes/appointments, promotions, etc., declining or avoiding required documentations such as offer letter, appointment orders, hiding from 6th pay commission/7th pay commission etc.,

--EDUCATION MINISTER Partha Chatterjee on Thursday said that his department was mulling writing to the University Grants Commission (UGC) on whether it was possible to appoint professors who do not have PhD degrees as principals in government colleges.
"We are considering writing to the UGC for its opinion on whether professors, who have considerable experience but do not have PhD degrees, could be appointed as college principals," Chatterjee said in the assembly.
"There is a growing disinterest among professors with PhD degrees to apply for posts of college principals. Principals have been appointed in 126 government-aided colleges. But there is a vacancy in 170. We have received only 75 applications for these," he added.
