Is 12lpa seen as a poor mans pay these days?

Back in 2019, this was seen as a major stepping stone, but I see folks here passing Lol remarks at this pay.

Those who pass these LOL remarks are the same people who will be paying 25-30% tax coz they don't know how to handle big paycheck.

Well, a little tweaking outside the rules hasn't harmed anyone, mate !

Bro depends on experience..
Just calculate it like this.
Your Ctc = YOE * 6

You are perfect than..

Example. You have 2yoe.. Than ctc = 2 * 6
12lpa

funnylike

But where the hack was I bragging... Its nothing to be bragged about, I said there are many people earning 50lpa also as a fresher, I would be a stupid if I start comparing myself with those guys.
Point here is, I wasn't making anyone feel low, I was not making fun of anyone here, I don't knw how you felt that I'm bragging.

The group which I'm, my friends, relatives, I saw them with yoe *6 that's why I said..

Hey senior, let's not stretch it.. Thanks

Fun Fact : As per studies, people in India who have more than 17lakhs wealth in total are considered belonging to top 10% household in the country.

I guess that depends on yoe and skills set mostly. But the fact what I observed is it became very avg for 2-3 yoe people during this market conditions thus younger folks easily getting much more than this with negotiation. Sepcially people in FAANG/MAANG getting 30-60lpa with 0-4 yoe have created a new standard and thinking pattern among other people in the industry.
So what I think is some peeps amongst who are getting high package very early (unlike before 2020) and commenting "LoL" may be a sign of their foolishness or thinking this is nothing, very easy to get and laughable. It all comes down to being humble which they are lacking in their behaviour. But on the other side I also feel if someone can get a good package that person should definitely try to get it, and at the same time uplift others, guide them for the same and be humble instead of being a bully.

Depends on you tech stack on yoe. If you have <=2 yoe, it's great!
If you are at 12 yoe then you are missing out

It seems inflation and the present salary structure has made the 12 LPA back in 2018, 2019 to almost 22LPA now in 2022

Freshers aur 1, 2 yoe wale ko lagta h market norm h yoe*6 or *5. As your exp increases the norm comes down to yoe*3 to yoe*4 as the good salary range for majority of the employees.
A minor chunk will always be there who will earn yoe*6 to *10 but that is now where close to normal range.

True, IT Noobs publishing mathematical research paper on CTC to YOE formula.

You will always find people lying on CV and interviews to get package, switching every 1.5 years +-

Don't get demotivated, there is no mathematical formula to calculate package based on YOE

Is it fine to share offer letter of company B(higher compensation than company A) with company A to re-negotiate with company A? As I know it is a confidential document and should not be shown to anyone.
The HR from company A is asking to share the offer letter.
Please share your valuable feedback.

During my first switch back in 2019 I recieved 80% hike (4.5 lpa to 8 lpa), that was such an excitement you just can't believe. I got this once my ex left me and I was happy after receiving this offer after huge sadness , sorrows given my ex.



Today I recieved 100% hike with cctc as 10 lpa but no excitement. It look like I am becoming a robot and not enjoying anything.

Don't know what to do, just going with the flow.

Most HRs these days ask for previous salary slips/ bonus/hike letters without even quoting their offer. Should we proceed with what they want? Is it ethical? Any pros/cons
Any views?
I am thinking beyond just verifying if the candidate is not lying on the current salary but what if they don't even have the budget to what the candidate has asked as the expectation for the hiring position.
