Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

I have been working for 3 years 6 months (started in 2021) as a Data Analyst/BI Analyst with my techstack being SQL, Python and PBI. I have switched 2 companies and currently at my 3rd one from the last 1.7 years being paid 14.57 LPA.
I am switching because it's become stagnant here with no room for further growth (after many talks with my team lead etc.)
I am afraid of not being able to bag DS/DA roles because every other hiring post says that they require the whole world from a DA with 3+ years of experience. Idk how to prove my abilities with limited exposure so far and therefore, how much salary also to ask and negotiate for.
Please help!

How much salary should I ask for and how to prove my skills?

[Zepto](zepto) has certainly made a huge impact in the quick commerce space, especially in big cities, where their quick deliveries are a real game-changer. But the recent buzz about Zepto possibly delivering cars, in collab with Skoda, feels a bit over the top.

Buying a car is such a special experience. The entire process, from visiting the dealership to driving away in your brand-new car, just can’t be replicated by a home delivery service. It’s a big moment, and the excitement of taking delivery at the showroom adds to the thrill. Turning that into a simple doorstep delivery doesn’t seem right.

Also, I can’t imagine relying on the same platform that delivers eggs in 10 minutes to handle a 1.5 lakh-rupee iPhone, let alone a car.
Honestly, I feel like this Skoda-Zepto collab is more of a marketing stunt to generate buzz for the Kylaq. It doesn’t feel like there’s enough demand for this kind of service, and I think most people, like myself, would prefer the traditional showroom experience.

Zepto Delivering Cars? Why It Might Be Going Too Far
