Hi Fishes, Y.O.E 7.5+ years. Tata Consultancy TCS is offering 25LPA including variable pay and everything. So just 15% increment on my current salary since they mentioned I am leaving my current organization within 1 year.
They mentioned 8-12% is VP plus 80k from that salary is paid at the end of each year. Is it a good enough salary for 7.5+ yoe candidate. Also any heads up for the things I should look out for will be really helpful.

Start looking and ask.
I would ask. Too many variables to know exactly why your specific leadership did things the way they did.
Typically, retention bonuses are given to those who threaten or attempt to resign, not those who quietly stay. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, as they say.
My guess is that the colleagues you heard about threatened to leave, and got the retention money. This seems much more likely than your firm somehow deciding to single you out as not getting that bonus.
Ask for an explanation, but be aware that you may not have all the info. If you're going to be upset about not being awarded the money now, start job hunting.
Retention bonus is given only if you threten to resign or have other offers.
