I’m being considered for an ED role at another company with the TC 40-60% higher than my comp now. I’m very underpaid right now due to my company not giving bonuses and raises for 2 years. This company is in Chicago and I’m in nyc so the role is remote. Direct report to CISO who has been very vocal that he wants to prepare the person to take over the CISO role. I came second to a similar role in NYC with 75% more than my current TC. Will I regret taking this and not waiting for a bigger raise?

Great congratulations!
I would suggest benchmarking your proposed compensation with rest of the companies and industry in general.
In current environment, i am not sure if there would be windfall of offers at senior roles.

Use glassdoor, or salaries in tech bowl here to get some insights, posting proposed range.

If its large MNC, there might be very little scope for negotiations, as ranges are fixed.

Hope this helps

Adding that I want to take this role but given the inflation, I don’t want to regret not waiting for a bigger jump.

Do you have an offer?

They want to make sure our salary expectations match before extending one rather than waste time. So I have to let them know if I’m ok with this range.
