Why do you even want to compare ?

There are people who are daily wagers who earn in hundreds per day and also someone like Ambani ka beta who would earn in crores.

You are one of the privileged few who are working in an IT company with a relatively good quality of life. So always strive to better your own personal stuff and do what makes you happy than some random comparison of who makes how much.

Just my 2 cents.

Every person has his/her own journey. Craft your own. :)

Can answer more precisely if you ask about specific roles in specific companies. Otherwise, one can be anything at 28 - SWE, data scientist, PM, strategy consultant, tech consultant, tester, on a career break, yogi, etc.

Like generally, just want to know what people of my age are earning. This will help me to strategize my career goal.

If you look at today's market trend then... For 28 age... Your package must be Between

6 LPA - 36 LPA

If you are above 36 LPA then super..

If you are below 6 then try to increase

Bro depends on role, company and to some extent college as well.
If you are looking for a generic number then I would say anything above 15lpa is more than enough if you are unmaried and have average financial responsibilities.

P. S: People of this age are earning way below and way above the number(I mentioned) including me!
