Am i Underpaid as a Fresher Project Manager ?

I recently graduated with a degree in Computer Science and landed a remote Project Manager role. However, I have zero prior experience in project management. The company offered me ₹20,000 per month and put me on a 6-month probation. They haven’t mentioned whether my salary will increase after probation. While I’m grateful for the opportunity, I feel like I’m underpaid for a PM role. I’m unsure whether I should ask for a market-competitive raise now or wait until the probation period ends. Should I negotiate now, or should i wait for five more months and then push for a raise?

You should wait for 5 more months because you are a fresher

Are you managing complex projects, or is it more of an administrative role?

Have you discussed the possibility of a performance review and salary adjustment after probation with your manager or HR?

₹20,000? That's barely enough to cover expenses.
