What’s on Quora?

What is the starting salary for a project manager?

Top Answer

I’ll have to split this answer in two categories.

  1. PM salary in Service Industry
  2. PM salary in Product Industry

Splitting these in two further categories,

  1. Born in the Company
  2. Lateral hire

PM Salary in a Service Company (born into it)

It starts somewhere around 9LPA and can go up to 12LPA. Companies like Infosys, TCS, Wipro etc pay their employees in this range.

PM Salary in a Service Company (Lateral hire)

Lateral hire salary would be in the range of around 14~16 LPA and can go up to 22~24 LPA.

PM Salary in a Product Company (born into it)

This would start around 28~30 LPA and can go up to 32~34 LPA.

PM Salary in a Product Company (Lateral hire)

Starts around 30~32 LPA and can go up to 40~42 LPA.

Hope this helps.
