Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

I'm working as a design technical engineer in cable firm. My pay currently is 6.6 L per year with 6.5 years of work ex. As per market 9.5-10.5 L per year is what everyone has with this kind of work ex. 
How much of a hike should I pitch to my boss when he asks me considering the fact that my pay is lower than market standards.? Can I push for 50-60 % hike. Please guide anyone.

I have been the top performer of the company in my department and management is really pushing me to not consider any other opportunities.

Engineering - Software & QA

I am currently holding 9 years of IT experience in QA Automation and Testing. I have experience in testing and developing automation frameworks for API and UI. Also, I have experience in performance testing using JMeter. In my current organization I am getting 21 LPA with 2.5 years completed. What should be the market price or what is the maximum CTC I can expect if I switch now??

Career Growth

I recently signed a contract for 2 years, I'm currently having 2yrs experience in ERP implementation / Consultant and getting around 2.75 LPA. After signing a contract only they started giving training on Microsoft D365 software, where I can work on Business Central / Finance and Operations / Power BI / DevOps or any other softwares. So I can get good knowledge on various softwares, where I can grow myself and get better opportunities in the future.. 

I'm only thinking about is that contract worth ?

Recently I was going through a placement process of a company ( From Big 4 )  and their whole process was worst... You know why? 

See, 

1) Almost every student used chatgpt for coding like just imagine how bad their security process.. 

2) They selected Students with 0 code and rejected students who have done 2 codes. 

3) In the interview they are asking girls " write a code for finding greatest of three numbers " and for boys they are not at all responsive or reactive... Why the hell they took this placement process if they are not interested to take
