Seeking Advice on salary negotiation.
I have 4+ years of experience as a Python Full Stack Developer. My previous package was ₹6.75 LPA, and I resigned from my last company in May 2024. Since then, I’ve been actively searching for new opportunities while taking on freelance projects to maintain a steady income.
About a month ago, I accepted a 1-month contract job as a Python Full Stack Developer working on an image-searching project. It’s a 6-day workweek, completely work-from-office, in Hyderabad, and I’m being paid ₹70,000 per month. It was jewelry domain and just like startup. The project is now nearing its final stage, and the company has expressed interest in retaining me as a full-time employee.
I’m seeking advice on:
1. How much package can I ask for?
2. What is the market rate for a Python Full Stack Developer with 4 years of experience in Hyderabad?
3. What should I consider while negotiating the offer?

Hyderabad's tech scene is buzzing these days...With 4 years of experience, you should consider asking for ₹12-14 LPA based on your skills and the domain expertise you bring. Have you checked Glassdoor or LinkedIn salary insights for similar roles?

You’re already in a good spot since they want to retain you. I’d suggest asking for at least ₹12 LPA as you have good experience and are already working on a live project. How flexible is the company with salary?

That’s great progress bro💼 For Hyderabad, based on your profile, the market rate for a Python Full Stack Developer with 4+ years is ₹10-13 LPA on average. But if the company is a startup, maybe start with ₹12 LPA and see how they respond

Such an interesting post, bro...Considering the jewelry domain and startup vibe, I’d say ₹12 LPA is a reasonable ask. But, are you also thinking of negotiating for other benefits like health insurance or stock options?
