India IT Employers Keep Fresher Salaries Flat
|
6.2
India's IT giants, including TCS, Infosys and Wipro, have kept entry-level salaries around Rs 3–4 LPA for nearly two decades, with offers rising only about Rs 20,000 from 2007 to 2026. Adjusted for soaring tuition (often Rs 10–25 lakh), urban inflation and rent, real purchasing power has fallen roughly 50–60 percent. The trend pressures campus hiring and may force educators, employers and policymakers to reassess compensation and training.
