Greetings Fishes,

A query which I long had and also today's budget session gave me the kick to ask this question.

I would like to know WHAT IS AN IDEAL SALARY STRUCTURE?
Which components should I focus more on?
What structure is best/ideal for minimal taxation?

Openion:

I see people with multiple offers (5+ in multiple occasions)....A lot of deserving people should have been kept on hold or rejected because of those offer hoarding individuals.

But honestly i don't blame them for this.... It's becoming a culture these days and i also believe that those IT companies deserve this last minute dropout....Their rude HR don't even care to pick up calls or update a candidate and leave them hanging in most of the times.
