Hi Brother, you can ask upto 14 lpa for your experience and tech stack. Offices will resume after April that too based on the covod situation only . we can expect this year end for work from Office.

Salary wise it is OK ... You are getting 3X times your experience. You can try to negotiate more as Azure is niche. I have seen people with niche skillset get 4X easily.

W.r.t Return to office, Cognizant is asking employees to start reporting to base location by April irrespective of Omicron. However it will be hybrid model ( 1 day or 3 day in office and remaining work from home). Covid is now seen as endemic (just like cough / cold ) so all companies will start return to office.
