Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

My current CTC is ₹7,80,660, which includes a ₹1,32,000 night shift allowance, and my monthly take-home pay is ₹72,133. 
I have received a new job offer with a CTC of ₹10,67,231, a monthly take-home pay of ₹83,333, and 192 restricted stock units (each valued at $60, vesting 25% after one year and quarterly thereafter).  
This new position is closer to my home and does not involve night shifts. The offer letter is attached. 
I have also requested a ₹95,000 monthly salary increase and am awaiting their response.  

Could someone advise me on whether I should accept the new offer or remain in my current role?

New offer. Confused.

Hello, I got 32L CTC offer from TCS as an IAM associate consultant. Is it a good package considering I have 10.9 years of experience and in IAM 3.6 years? Rest of the experience is in dot net. Also, TCS is considering 10.2 experience only as some process on their side. Please share your thoughts on the offered package and the experience part. Thank you in advance.

Got Offer from TCS!

Hi everyone,

I have 3.6 years of IT experience and currently work at a service-based company in Pune. My current CTC is 14 LPA (13.5 LPA fixed).

I recently received an offer from Novartis Hyderabad as Data Analyst level 3 with a CTC of 19.9 LPA (18.3 LPA fixed).

Is this a good offer, or is it on the lower side for my experience? Would appreciate your suggestions!

Any answers from people working at Novartis pls ?

I’m currently earning 20k in a startup in a 3-tier city, working in a collaborative role. 

I’ve been offered a job as an Assistant manager Digital Marketer at a product-based company (handicrafts decor/gift business), 

which matches my own small gift business. The salary offer is 23k. Given my experience and the match with my business, should I ask for more? They said 23k is what they can offer 

Would appreciate any advice.

URGENT-is a 3k (15%) salary hike after 9months fair?
