Seeking advice on Salary earning

Dear Friends, I am currently working with a reputed Stainless steel company in India and associate with this company since the inception of my career in 2009.I completed my B.E.in 2009 and MBA in 2020 . My CCTC is 12.5 Lacs only which is too low as per industry average and I have not received any promotion in the last 6 years . I think long association with a single company is undervaluing yourself. Kindly guide How much salary should I ask for if I move to another relatable company and justification for this hike ?? Kindly assist ,Your insight are really helpful to me.

You'll need to ask for a standard 40% hike as a base to get into interviews. Then keep using one offer letter after another to increase your pay. A bit unethical but that's how it works normally. Hardly any HR would give you a 100% hike directly.

Considering your experience and qualifications, you can easily ask for a CTC of 20–25 LPA in a similar role. What industries are you eyeing for the switch?

15 saal ka experience + MBA = Power combo....You can definitely aim for a 60–80% hike in a similar domain. Want help with salary benchmarking for stainless steel roles?

Let’s do some quick math. With 15 years of experience and an MBA..you should at least be in the 20-25 LPA bracket. What do others in this thread think?
