New offer. Confused.
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?

Work life balance is very good. One will get ample of time to learn and study. Office timings are strict 8:50 to 5:30 (extended only of it's required). Scientists and other contract engineers will support alot. One can get both software and testing related experience due to its infrastructure. Subsidized canteen food and peaceful ambience.
