For your experience you have a pretty good ctc. It will be very difficult for companies to accommodate you at a higher band given the less yoe (as unfortunately that's how most HRs will treat you to maintain the pay parity)

For Automation testing I can say you're at the ceiling from a CTC perspective. Though I hope you get to break it and get a better offer. As of now I can suggest dropping the VB script and UFT skills from your resume and try to pivot yourself into a DevOps role. That can help you get a better CTC.
