I'm currently at very low CTC, consider it below 10 with 6.5 years of experience in DevOps and Linux scripting.
How much CTC should I expect while switching. Can anyone suggest good points for getting a good offer and how is the market right now for giving interviews for DevOps.
What will be my current market price with skills - Linux, shell scripting,Python, docker, Kubernetes,Git, knowledge of AWS and Azure clouds.
I know with my experience and technology, I am underpaid& need your help.

You definitely need to switch ASAP. I think 18lac is the bare minimum considering your stack and your YOE.

I am not sure about the market, i believe with niche skill like kubernetes market will always be good for you.

You dint mention pipeline as your skillset, if it is, do add it on your resume along with what you have mentioned here.

Quality is better than quantity, apply to only select jobs that match 70-80% of your stack. Only these jobs will pay you the salary you have in mind.

Also a thing to consider is how much of 6.5yrs of your experience went towards devops? But i still believe knowing kubernetes alone fits the bill for salary to be upwards of 10lac.

Yes. I know CI CD pipeline. And trying to get projects with my skill set. Hope I'll land somewhere better with good package which actually matches my skill set and hardwork soo.

Anywhere if you get 3x of YoE would be the ideal amount which is doable for both employee and company.

First try to get an offer of 50% hike and then go on with the ideal number which you feel.

At a certain point there will be a scenario where project work and company culture matters more than CTC.

Until you settle down for that improve your CTC number.
