Hi Fishes, I got a offer from UK glasgow for 55k pounds + 10k bonus(Big bank but through service company), how much I can save if I went as bachelor from india, in india my CTC is 31LPA is it worth taking the chance of going to UK. Total YOE 7 years.

I guess the bank is Barclays. However Barclays doesn’t lowball in terms of salaries as the managed services company has lowballed you here.

£55k GBP is too less as compared to your current salary in India. To match with your current salary, you should at least be earning £75k in Glasgow and more than £90k in London.

Try negotiating, however I doubt you’ll be able to settle at number that’s comparable to your current salary in India.

Thats pretty less compared to what you are earning in India.

Don't even think about it. With purchasing power parity, 31 LPA is £100k.
Considering tax and plethora of additional expenses!

Go for it, but just for that experience.
You are lowballed on the salary though, for sure.
Reality is, UK is not giving good salaries anymore now. Since you are a bachelor and it is Glasgow, 65k will suffice. Don’t expect anything fancy unless you earn 85k.
If it was London, then 65k would have been really hard to live a good life on.

Like I said, go for that experience mate, and not salary/savings. If the charm dies down, you can always plan it back to India (Which earlier no one used to do, but now, I personally know people who have done it in last couple of years).

Go for it mate. Scotland is beautiful.

No doubt the Scotland is beautiful (for 4 months in a year), but not worth making a huge dent to the savings. If it’s an on-site opportunity for a limited period (a year or so), then worth giving it a shot, but a sane person shouldn’t stay here on that salary for more than that.
