I see average salaries seem to be more for PM role. But my experience is also less. Wondering when to negotiate.

I’ve recently transitioned into a Product Manager role, coming from a non-engineering background with 2 years of experience outside of product. I don’t have a technical or coding background, so I understand how overwhelming the shift can feel initially.

14 LPA is decent for a new Product Manager, especially without a tech background.

But if you want to grow faster and increase your value, learning basic data skills (analytics, SQL) will help you stand out.
