I personally would not have made that move nor would I have accepted the lower salary. I would’ve quit and looked for a new job in the U.S.
That's the price of Globalization. Salaries are localized. You won't get it back, companies are pretty strict about salary localizations. You'll see a lot of jobs posted in the US that will specify salary range for most areas, then Bay Area and NYC salaries specifically. Tech companies have been doing this forever.

I hate that companies do this because they feel that the standard of life is lower but one is still doing the same work. Very annoying. Please negotiate
Just wondering if the 30% drop due to cost of living in India and as a result in line with salary struck. I’m sure you know I’m just trying to educate myself. Look forward to hearing back on this
Best of Luck☮️
You should read OP Post again, pay did not drop 30% it dropped TO 30% of wage earned in US.,.. not unusual at all for India workers
Sounds like my experience with being a US citizen working for Infosys. When my position (ERP admin) was outsourced to them, I didn't want to work for them, but had no choice. I asked for an increase in pay, and they agreed, as long as I moved across the country, with my family (glorified desktop support). After I got my Master's degree, they moved me back to where I once lived, and refused to pay the relocation costs, then tried to cut my pay by 20%, to move into a CIRT Security position. They kept trying to not pay for hours work, until I found another job and left.
