How to negotiate offer without sharing current CTC.
my current CTC is 9.5 LPA I clear interview in some companies where for the role compensation range was 18+ LPA

But when it comes to salary discussion part, They ask me about my previous salary and said your previous salary was 9.5 so we can not offer more then 12/14 LPA

Unfortunately you're interviewing in India and your salary discussion will most likely happen with an Indian HR. They're not trained to discuss salary, they're trained to do negotiation like a street vendor. Your current salary will always determine your next salary in 99% cases, the salary range for the job title will not matter.
In your case, from 9.5lpa, you can aim for 16-17 but they'll not offer that unless you made a very good impression during the interview. Also if someone offers you 12 and other offers you 14, then check how much you'll get in hand per month as you'll have to account for taxes as well in the 14 lpa offer. Always state your expected ctc calmly as confidently and you'll get there.

3 YOE

no one is giving more than 30% currently only option is counter offer and you can’t negotiate without disclosing your cctc thats the fact so just take the offer and look out for other options

Got it,
Yeah, I am realising this with time, all they cares about current CTC + % hike

Techstack ?

In initial days I was working as MERN Stack, but with time I only get opportunity to work on Frontend side mostly.

So, I am more focused on Frontend Side, but having knowledge of MERN Stack.

Current tech I am working on: Nextjs, Typescript, TailwindCss, Muicharts, Flow Charts.

Got an offer from pwc in the data privacy role.
With 13.5 Lpa currently i’m at 12 and made switch on march.
Though my current company is an mnc but not that big and no work pressure is there, amazing work life balance. However, there is little to no learning and its very slow, the project is just starting and the client itself is not clear what they want. Do you think I should switch just because its a big 4. Please help me decide. Yoe -3.5

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?
