Get a free AI-powered salary estimate based on your role, experience, location, and skills across the Indian tech market.
Free salary calculator for Indian tech roles
Before you accept an offer, counter one, or ask for a raise, you need to know your number. Our free salary calculator uses live Indian tech-market data to estimate what a role should pay based on title, years of experience, location, and the specific skills you bring to the table.
Enter your role, experience, and location and you get a salary range — low, median, and high — benchmarked against real offers for AI engineers, backend and frontend developers, data scientists, DevOps engineers, product managers, and designers across India. The tool also highlights which skills command a premium in your role so you can negotiate with evidence.
It is built for candidates who want fair pay and employers who want to budget competitive offers. No sign-up required to see a baseline estimate. A free account unlocks negotiation tips and a personalised market position report based on your profile.
How the AI Salary Calculator works
1
Pick your role and experience
Choose your job title — for example, AI engineer, backend developer, data scientist, product manager — and enter your total years of experience.
2
Add your city and work mode
Location matters. Salaries in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Gurugram, and remote-first companies differ meaningfully. Add your city and whether you are on-site, hybrid, or remote.
3
List your top skills
Add five to ten of your strongest skills. The calculator weighs premium skills — Kubernetes, LLM fine-tuning, system design, RAG, CUDA, etc. — into your range.
4
See your salary range
Get a low, median, and high estimate plus a market-percentile view so you know whether your current pay is below, at, or above the market for your profile.
5
Negotiate with confidence
Use the report as evidence in your next conversation with a recruiter or manager. A free account unlocks negotiation scripts and counter-offer templates.
Low, median, and high ranges — not a single misleading number
Free to use, with optional free account for deeper insights
Privacy-respecting — no phone calls, no lead forms
Updated continuously as the market shifts
When to use the salary calculator
Evaluating a job offer
Before signing, check whether the offer sits below, at, or above market for your role, experience, and skills — so you know whether to counter.
Preparing for a raise conversation
Take the report into your next one-on-one. Data beats opinion when you are asking for a raise.
Planning a job switch
See how much more you can realistically earn by switching roles, switching cities, or picking up one premium skill.
Benchmarking team salaries (for employers)
Hiring managers use the calculator to sanity-check their offers against the live market before sending an offer letter.
Negotiation tips that increase your offer
Never share your current salary first. Always ask about the budgeted range for the role.
Anchor high — ask for 15–25% above the median for your profile. Recruiters expect a negotiation.
Lead with impact, not tenure. Talk about measurable outcomes you have delivered, not years served.
Negotiate the whole package: base, variable, joining bonus, ESOPs, and retention bonuses, not just CTC.
If the base is fixed, ask for more variable pay, a sign-on bonus, or an earlier review cycle.
Get any offer in writing before saying yes. A verbal offer is not an offer.
Politely walk away if the number is more than 15% below market for your profile — better roles exist.
Frequently asked questions
Where does the salary data come from?
Estimates are based on a combination of public compensation reports, offers shared anonymously on Get on Global, and ongoing market research across Indian tech employers.
Is the salary calculator free?
Yes. Baseline estimates are free. A free account unlocks the detailed negotiation report, premium-skill weightage, and personalised market position.
Does it work for freshers?
Yes. The calculator covers freshers and interns as well as mid-senior roles. For very recent graduates, the range is tighter and based on campus-placement benchmarks.
Do you cover non-tech roles?
The calculator is tuned for AI, engineering, product, data, and design roles on Get on Global. Adjacent roles get reasonable estimates but technical roles are most accurate.
Will employers see my salary inputs?
No. Your inputs are private and used only to generate your report. We never share individual salary data with any employer.
How often are the numbers updated?
The underlying data is updated continuously as new offers and hires flow through the platform. The market shifts fast, so we treat it as a living dataset.
