Your two numbers
Thank you for the conversation about the [Role] role. I am looking at this role on total compensation and the work, not one headline number. My current CTC is ₹0 per year, and for a similar scope I am targeting around ₹0. If you can share the band for this level, I can tell you quickly whether we are in range. Happy to talk structure — fixed vs variable, notice, joining bonus — once the band is on the table.
